		<description>This is a very judgmental comment. First, it is unfair to focus the blame on the entirety of Japanese women when essentially it is still the man’s choice. Quite possibly, he might himself feel it cleanlier, enjoyable… or who knows what else; it’s his CHOICE. Case in point: plenty of men have attested to this in more than a few comments left here. Secondly, it is a different culture. Maybe - just MAYbe - to them, a man’s manhood does not revolve around something as trivial as the “right” to urinate standing. It is saddening for you to denounce an entire culture that is different from your own because it does not reflect the what you believe to be true. Lastly, to say “my Western women friends who work with Japanese women always come away with the feeling that they have met the nastiest, meanest, toughest, most unforgiving, and most manipulative women on the planet” sounds downright bigoted. I myself am also a “Western woman,” as you put it, but clearly not nearly so narrow minded. I know some “Western women” who are also quite nasty, mean, tough, and manipulative but that does not mean that ALL “Western women” are like that nor should your gossipy secondhand hearsay about Japanese women serve as an accurate account of them.

… but if putting people down helps you sleep better in your own ignorance at night, sweet dreams.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not Japanese, but not bad if you know that in my culture the male people avoid peeing while standing! In my country it&#039;s so, as my religion has recommended not to pee while standing, and to do it while sitting or squatting. I know there, they teach the kid when he can stand up, how to pee while standing, but it&#039;s not so here. However, I am male and quite healthy, but I don&#039;t pee while standing. You should consider that there are many different ways and theologies around the world.

To my own, peeing while standing is a nasty actions, also it does not feet a man&#039;s character, that&#039;s like you imagine a respectable man standing up still some where, his penis is out and his piss line in front of him! Who made the rule that males MUST stand up while urinating? And don&#039;t relate it to the nature, potentially many things are natural as an ability; one can bring it out (gun), aim and kill, but he has choosing power, although he has the ability, but he may not do it if he is sane; one can just bring it out, aim and piss, but does it mean he can not do it in a way but that?

Why stand to pee? Why aim? Aiming is for the time when you are distant to your target and can&#039;t be close to it, but when you can be close to it, and if you are sane, you prefer being close to your target than aiming to the target. So sit down and be relax, the name of the place you are doing that in, is rest room! And why you waste your time and energy in cleaning bathrooms? You can save it for more useful affairs by reducing the need of bathroom to be cleaned!

As for those who say &quot;peeing while standing is of a few pleasures of a man!&quot;, I should say that a man is more valuable than way of peeing places as his pleasure and property! It does not fit a man to consider that as his worth! Men have more valuable special abilities to be mentioned! And as for those who say &quot;peeing while standing is much easier than doing it while sitting or squatting&quot;, I should say that bending over and pulling down pants, and keeping a part of panties down for a while and aim for a while both need an attempt; and the fact that which one is easier for a person depends on habit. The way in which one&#039;s habit is based on, is easier for that one, and to which you habit, it will be easier for you! As God has made the ability of peeing while standing easily in guys, it must have an advantage, and yes it has. In men&#039;s jobs some times urgent situations happen, and some times they have to do some thing in a short time when the speed is important, and some times men have situations that they can&#039;t sit or squat or are in places where sitting or squatting is not easily possible; in such times they can use their ability of peeing while standing easily. But these urgent times just some times happen, not always! So I think there should be a project for men to stop, or to say better, manage peeing while standing. One group are already doing that and their site is: http://www.mapsu.org . As I mentioned, there are some occations when it&#039;s needed to pee standing up, then it happens for both men and women! So what should women do? So easy, they can instantly pee standing up using a small device, one is here: http://www.travelmateinfo.com/page002.html .
However, it will be great if the current way of peeing of guys in toilets and bathrooms, in the most parts of the world changes.</description>

		<description>As an American woman with a son and husband, I did a little informal survey of friends on this very interesting sociological issue. None, and I mean none, ever thought to even ask our husbands or boyfriends to sit on the toilet. No one also considered training our sons to sit while taking a wiz. And none could even imagine asking any American male to do this.

We have asked many things of the menfolk in our life, but never this. None of the women I spoke with knew what to make of it. However, my Western women friends who work with Japanese women always come away with the feeling that they have met the nastiest, meanest, toughest, most unforgiving, and most manipulative women on the planet.</description>

		<description>That was my first thought, too.
The numbers of men sitting down to urinate must surely increase in winter, and decrease again in summer.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t confirm on the actual truth of it, but I was once told of a guy who saved himself from some sort of urinary tract infection by strengthening the bladder muscles used to retain or deploy urine. He did this by switching between the two multiple times during the course of one urination.

This could, of course, be done whether standing up or sitting down, but I get the impression that there&#039;s a little more complexity to the issue than your simple explanation.

(and also very true: who the hell wouldn&#039;t wipe it up afterward? Since it&#039;s pretty much impossible to avoid splash damage every single time. Is there some sort of problem with admitting that both methods have drawbacks in terms of splash (I find that continual sitting-down results in a more frequent buildup of horrible-to-clean stuff under the seat)?)</description>

I used to but not until after I finished sniffing around said bushes and power poles.  The cops weren&#039;t too amused though when I pissed on the light post outside their koban.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll regard this as a serious post and will answer you:
Urinating and ejaculations have nothing in common except both are using the urethra. Also, urinating is nothing more than relaxing the sphincter at the end of the bladder and contracting the bladder to push the urine out.</description>

		<description>If you lift the seat up and aim directly in, there should be no problem.  And guess what, if you -somehow- manage to divert the stream outside of the toilet seat, just clean it up yourself!  This is a non-issue and reflects quite poorly on the men that let woman control their lives.  

However, if you do it out of preference, then enjoy.</description>

		<description>It seems that more Japanese men are getting pussy whipped. Or maybe men are getting feminized by all the estrogen like chemicals sloshing around in their blood. Stop bathing with that lavender and tea tree oil soaps! Google it up men! 

I claim that male bodies are designed to pee standing up. If you keep peeing sitting down, you will weaken your pee muscles which will lead to weaker ejaculations. (Maybe a contributing factor to Japan&#039;s declining birth rate??) 

Don&#039;t you see the fate of the human race is at stake!?! Stand up for your right to pee standing up!

(If you splash a little, show some common courtesy and just wipe it up you slobs.)</description>
