I'm a guy and I leave the seat down... It's really not that hard to aim into the hole >_>

Of course, putting the lid down seems like a common courtesy, although I have a short term memory and always forget. Which brings me to an answer that will solve the topic creator's problems =D

There's this thing you can buy at a novely store (Spencer's probably) that when you lift up the lid, it says "Please, put the seat down. Please, don't forget to put the seat down, thank you"

Works for me lol

i dont no y people do that but my mom is on me and my dad about it all the time saying its so rude and you should not even do it at a public bathroom i mean wtf is that *BLEEP* lol keep the thing down it dont make any sence

Well the way I see it, it's the same thing as drinking out of cartons (without getting pouring in a cup) or leaving dishes unwashed in the sinks for days or something like that, common courtesy, keeps everything nice & neat.

We worry about the toilet seat becuase it's really ferkin' GROSS! We don't want to be swimming where you just took a leak! And getting anything on the seat is worse because it's direct! Why don't you men understand this?

You just answered your own question. How would you like it if you almost fell in a toilet, because your spouse is to lazy to put the seat down? Frankly, I don't like the idea.



We don't lift the lid for you because a.) Nothing (other than the bowl) is nastier than the underside of a toilet seat, and b.) She might have to use it again before you do. And you need to put the lid down when you are finished because that is polite, and what a gentelman would do So, technicly if you don't do it, it means you don't consider her very much, and you're a rude man.

Ever turned a doorknob? There's more bacteria and virii on a doorknob than a toilet seat. Mysophobia is not an excuse for not being able to lift up a toliet seat.

Ever wonder why when you go to a public bathroom and you use the stall you see that the toilet seat is a horseshoe shape rather than an oval? That's to shutup this little argument as well as to contend with those that have mysophobia. If we all had horseshoe toilet seats there wouldn't be an argument between anyone for such a stupid little thing because it's unisex when down.

Omg that is so... well I think it is really silly to fight over something like this. Of course I would leave the lid down and be a gentleman but what if I forget one day? Why would people fight over a lid, its not that hard to move the lid, and how can you sit on something you cant see? what if there was a spider? tell her to check what she is going to sit on, reminds me of the guy with white pants that just came in the movie theater and sat without looking where he sat. As he sat down, I heard a crunch, then the guy got up and I could see cheese all over his pants. Lol, as soon as he turned around and realized what he had sat on, he didnt really know hot to react. He just threw his hands up in the air screaming and yelling. It was really funny, but not for him I guess. Lesson learned...

Hmm.......Here's another solution, us guys can sit and pee, put a tv in the john, a little mini-fridge, and make it an event.

I do that sometimes at night, when I'm too tired to stand up straight, and it's not so bad.

But I can definitely see the argument here, I must admit, I leave the seat up bout 75% of the time, and my wife has stopped complaining, of course when we go to visit the inlaws it's another thing, her brother and dad have been successfully 'trained' it seems, and I sometimes forget, and there's 3 angry women, besides my wife... and woah.... you do not want to make them angry...they all know how to handle weapons, lol. (They go trapshooting as a hobby, and hunt every season, where as I'm a city boy and have been shooting like 3 times in my life...lol)
