| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 8:48:22 AM | Because it grosses me out to have to touch the seat. Then I am obligated to wash my hands before I can go.
I always wash my hands before I go,, why you ask,, I don't want to get my little guy dirty,, just in case a sweet set of lips wants to kiss his head,and some,,
, he come out clean and then goes away clean... | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 10:20:28 AM | | The seat and lid should be closed so nothing falls into the toilet. This is a mans view. | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 11:58:01 AM | I tried to remember did I ever had this particular problem in my life with anyone.
I spent first 40 years of my life at another country, so I guess it is a specific american problem?? because it would never cross my mind to pay attention where the damn thing is - up or down
There are, of course, those who would argue that this is a prime example of American women wanting to be "equal", but only when it suits them, otherwise they expect everything to be done "their way, or else".
Me, the whole argument is stupid - the one that said "Its sobering to wake up and hit the bathroom to fall into a cold toilet", gee, try not getting drunk at night? I dunno, but I'm pretty aware of the world around me, and I am quite capable of working a toilet seat. I don't see the big deal... I'll do dishes, I'll do all kinds of things, and y'know for the *most* part I do keep the toilet seat down - but if perchance I forget, and WWIII ensues over it, trust me - you won't be worried about it *ever* again with me, because I'll be gone. If there's that much friggen drama over a toilet seat, I'm betting the relationship has a lot of other issues going on besides just that. If the position of the damn toilet seat is *that much* of an issue to you in your relationships, I'd venture to say you should really just stay out of relationships altogether, because if thats a major issue, I'd *hate* to see what happens when something really serious comes up! | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 2:29:36 PM | Some men are so stubborn about it.
There's no good reason the seat SHOULD be up. Here's the reasons it shouldn't be:
It's cleaner looking and more sanitary without toilet water spraying into the air.
An open toilet is a target for things to fall into. Would you want to drop your toothbrush in the toilet? Yuck!
Close the damn lid!!! | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 3:21:39 PM | Lol my ex ALWAYS used to leave the seat up. I didn't mind that much, apart from the fact that Charlie the cat could stick her head in there outta curiosity, fall in, never be able to get out again and end up drowning. For that reason alone I admit I shouted at her a few times.

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 3:57:47 PM | closing the seats means that when the toilet's flushed germ spreading is minimized...
now if i could only persuade my teen boys that they really *should* wash their hands each time they use it... | |

Yeah, I was pissed. Azz in cold water in the middle of the night is no fun I check it specifically with toilet seat up - my azz (size 6) doesn't touch water...however, it was cold thing to sit...LOL
I guess I need to lose few pounds to understand the problem......and I always look where I sit, even in the middle of night I turn the light on
the problem is so funny that I can't help but return to read it | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 10:10:49 PM | This is funny!
When these gals say that they need to go in a hurry they aren't joshin.
When working my way up through the ranks as a facilities engineer I did my fair share of restroom maintenance. In a high-rise office buildings there just is no respect for the rest room closed sign on the door. They ain't going back to the elevator or takin' the stairs.
On average 1 of every 2 closed ladies room services someone comes it and says they are going anyway. The pi$$ hits the water b4 their a$$ hits the seat! And they have the nurve to claim that they can't aim.....
Writing your name in the snow would be a breeze if you can hit the bowl while flying through the air a$$ backwards doing a twist and somehow managing to get your purse on the hook!
They all do it. Big ones, little ones, makes no difference as to race or upbringing. It's all of um.

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 2/6/2009 10:18:43 PM | Aw piss on it!
Maybe if women would learn to clean them better we wouldn't feel so funny about touching them!
Aw that special sauce! | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 3/12/2009 6:16:48 AM | LOL If i can leave it down he can leave it up. If I'm too stupid to look thats MY fault not his. But perhaps this comes from living in a house with more boys than girls growing up. All I sak is that you help keep things clean, I dont care if its up or down :) And refill the darn TP if it needs to be, thank ya! I'll do the same - never leave the next guy stranded without TP!!!! LOL | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 3/12/2009 6:35:11 AM | | You can look at it this way.. if that is all she is complaining about you got off easy. | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 8/31/2009 1:58:00 AM | If the lights are On...L o o k...!! If the lights are off...reach to the front of the tank...If you touch it...put it where you Want it..!! If you complain about it, someone is going to ask how long you've been _Blind_...! | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 8/31/2009 2:54:50 PM | i leave it as i found it. If it's down i put it up do my business then put it down. If your in my home you get what you get. I personally dont care how people leave the seat as i look before i step off a curb get out of a car and yes before i sit down  | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 8/31/2009 2:57:10 PM | Haha, I leave it however I find it too, and I'm female. If I'm in a house with a bunch of guys and they always leave the seat up, I put it back up after I'm finished. Guys leaving seats up has never bothered me very much, I've never actually fallen into a toilet (I almost have a couple of times, but I noticed just in time), but if I did, I think I'd probably find it funny more than anything  | |

| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/1/2009 7:21:36 PM | Can't believe such a stupid topic going on its fifth year
is it up or down? does it matter??? | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/1/2009 7:37:12 PM | Not a battle I choose to fight. PREFER the lid down, for several reasons, but not war-worthy.
The great toilet paper debate...within reach, dry, clean and enough to do the job. Don't care how or if it hangs. Petty issue. | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/1/2009 7:43:04 PM | Not to be 'picky', 'Prime....', but personally...I only put the LID down to keep the cats from Drowning...!!! [I know....just a typo...no worries!! . . ] | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/1/2009 8:28:20 PM | Two reasons why I hate it:
1) the seat often has piss on it - and I don't want have to touch it before I go to the washroom (I usually wash my hands before and after using the washroom - it's the lab tech in me coming out.)
2) If I wake up in the night to use the washroom, I usually don't turn the light on because it wakes me up too much to fall asleep again. Therefore, I sit down without seeing if the seat is up or down and my ass falls into the water. If that isn't a wake up call, I don't know what is.
Solution: put it down or listen to us wake you up with some obscenity late at night.... or - I have known several guys who actually sit to pee. This eliminates the possibility of splatter as well as the seat up/down issue. | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/2/2009 6:49:34 AM | mrcm37 you said: "The seat AND the lid should be left down by BOTH sexes each time"
Then how is the cat supposed to drink? | |
|
| The Toilet seat thing!!! Posted: 9/2/2009 7:44:20 AM | Seriously ,I 've heard from a friend that the gauge of a gentleman is he don't forget to put down the stupid toilet seat after he leak.. It doesn't bother me really if the seat is down or up. My hand is capable to put down the seat ,unless my nail polish is still wet then I've be calling >>
"Honey I need to pee. "Honey you don't need to ask permission to pee'. "Honey I am not asking permission I need you to put the toilet seat down. "Honey I am busy watching football game. "Honey if you really LOVE me and care for me you'll come and put the toilet seat down!!!! Honey,sweetheart,I LOVE you but I am BUSY can you not get that in your HEAD!@#$% @#$%^& You!!!! I will Divorce YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

Japan has had them for 20 years, except now they are motorized and do all sorts of things as well as just lift and close the lid. Here's a starter
