This issue is all about control. A woman who tells you to leave the toilet seat down is trying to establish and maintain the dominant role in the relationship. Remember that.
put the cover down so you both have to do the same amount of work. why the fuck should one person systematically get it their way. if its gonna be an issue, both people are gonna have to lift the seat/cover up and put it back when your done. its sanitary anyway. you wont have toilet water splashing everywhere while you flush
Europe/Finland i have mom, an older sister, and 2 brothers, and during my 18 years of life, i have not heard a damn thing about some toilet seat issues see, women over here know how to put it down themselves
If women are too stupid to look before they sit, then they deserve to fall in. and steve is right.. what made women (and yes, I am one) in control of the toilet seat.. why don't women put the seat up.. ?
I said it and got the same treatment. Now I just do it out of habit. It's kinda sad if you think about tho. A grown ass woman can't put down the toilet seat for herself or can't lift it for her man, but you as the man has to do both!!! Women, I tell ya!!
This is one of the most trivial arguments women have 1. its only fair that People should put the toilet seat where they want when they need it. Men shouldnt have to conform to making sure its perfect for you whenever you want to use the bathroom. Its not like you put it up assuming a man needs to pee next. 2. when men need to go number 2, they dont just sit on the toliet when the seat is up. They actually look so why cant women. its not something that takes a lot of effort. 3. Women dont just sit in public bathrooms without checking it so whats the big deal with actually checking it at home. Its not like thats an extra chore. This is just an annoying argument of how some women just want everything their way all the time.
I heard another comedian do a bit on this and it stuck with me. He said "Women have to sit down twice as much as we do. So why are they falling in and complaining? You would think they would look before they sat down to make sure the seat is down." Anyway, I took this to heart. My husband and I will be married 5 years April 2015, and I have never complained to him or nagged him about leaving the toilet seat up. I simply look before I sit. It has worked well for us. I don't get why women complain about this. Just look before you sit. It's simple. And if you were raised with brothers like I was, then it should be even easier.
This is about control. I had one former girlfriend, she was about control, over the seat, and a lot of other things too. It was the shortest relationship I had.
I just think it's gross when the seat isn't down because that means when you flushed the toilet all that urine was spraying everywhere. There's a study that was done that when toilets are flushed with the seat up the pressure from the toilet can spray bacteria-laden water into the air and around the bathroom including your toothbrushes. Gross! Put the seat down and then flush! Simple!
I'm a 50 year old single white male who's never been married and rarely goes on dates with women. If I'm in somebody's house or apartment I always sit (even when I don't have to). 1) I know I don't make a mess by missing......... 2) I guarantee that the seat stays down. 3) I'll even take a little toilet paper and wipe around the bowl and the bottom of the seat in case somebody else left a mess before I got there. 4) I wash my hands so that I don't have to worry about leaving the bathroom dirtier than I left it.
Unless your boyfriend doesn't know how to aim it properly and pisses all over the toilet anyway, why not not look at the seat being up as a form of "quality assurance". He cares enough to lift it up. Think about it. Which would you rather be greeted by, a dry seat that is up or one that is down with spritz on it. Just a thought.
@@BatmanMCMXCIV , not so. Both seat and lid gets closed at my house. The reduction in germs in the air, especially unseen fecal material, is directly proportional to the lid being closed when flushing. There are 4 males, 2 females, 3 toilets in our house. I bet I have cleaned over 60% of all the toilets all the time. I don't think it is lazy on my part to expect the seat AND LID down. I don't think it is sexist to expect males and females to close both and clean them.
@@joycewobbrock2289 Expect the lid to be down? Maybe get an automatic toilet lid or maybe hire someone to put it back down for you when you need to go pee pee and poo poo.
My ex-bitch had a big problem with this. I asked her what the big deal was and her answer was "I have to TOUCH the toilet seat"! As if I don't. Typical double standard with women. We're supposed to accommodate them for everything.
if my woman makes a problem of a small thing like that then she no going to be mine for long ,cause i do lift it when i have to go now if she compainds y i dont put down well she will not be for long in my house , they fight so long to be equal with men but all they care is about them so i put up with her she has to put up with me if she really wanna be with me if she dont then the door is right there
idk why women complain about this just look before doing anything simple fix. Its just annoying to hear women complain about each and every bad thing that happens. you dont see men walking about talking about how there is makeup all over the bathroom
I don't complain about putting the seat down, and my fiancé doesn't complain about putting it up - what the hell is wrong with people that this becomes an issue?? SMDH
It's just laziness on both part, men and women (especially MEN), to be honest. Putting a seat down isn't the hardest thing, but, the monotony of that routine is what gets people.
Bes Bloke the woman wants the man to put the seat down and have it nice and ready while completely ignoring the fact that someone else was doing the hard work. all a guy wants to do is take a piss not remember to work.
My wife never complains!!! This is stupid! People think their significant other is obligated to them. If the significant other is severely injured, paralyzed, or killed, what are they going to say "I wish he would have learned to leave the toilet seat up"?
How come men never complain about the toilet seat being up or never fall in like women do? We have to sit down, sometimes. Grown people should adjust things to the way they use them before they use them. Don't depend on other people to think about how you want the toilet seat, just open/close it as you see fit. What's the big deal?
What I don't understand is how can incompetent are you that you can't do something as simple as moving the toilet seat to the proper position before going? Why should one gender have to make the conscious action of moving the toilet seat, but the other is completely absolved of it? It's not asthough you enter the bathroom in reverse.
In which case, women should put it back up? Or everyone could just put it where they'd like before they go and leave it once they're finished. Mathematically, this system leads to the fewest toilet seat movements in any period. This reduces the spread of germs, extends the life of the hinge on the seat and restricts the likelihood of RSI. Move it; do your thing; leave it. The only way.
If you put it up, then put it down. If you turn it on, turn it off. Etc. If it only takes you a second to put it up, then it should only take you a second to put it down. Lol
@@joycewobbrock2289 if it is so easy to put it down why not just let it up after you use it so that you wouldnt waste youre 2 seconds. and only spend those seconds when you are using it. if its down and you want it up then go for it. easy not second movement. if its up then put it down.
@@Celestania . Both the lid and seat should always be down. Closing the lid keeps fecal material from being propelled throughout the house. Check out the myth busters on this. Put it down.
I always put the seat and lid down because typically the sink or some common surface is right next to the toilet and I'd hate to accidentally knock or drop something in there.
The real issue that everyone in the comment section seems to be missing is the fact that it is HER APARTMENT! Her roommate's bf does NOT live there, therefore he MUST put everything back in proper order the way he found it. If he lived there with them, then that would be a different story. If a man comes to MY apartment and asks to use MY bathroom and leaves the seat up, that is very disrespectful. It's just like using a cup at someone's house and not offering to wash it, even if they refuse the offer and just washes it themself.
Or you could turn the light on and check before parking yourself. Men have no moral or logical obligation to put the toilet seat down. I'm a lid-down person anyway so I guess I'm just creating hassle for everyone.
Any woman who complains about the toilet seat position should admit she is in a failed marriage and should get a divorce instead of whingeing. How childish and pathetic.
Men may splatter on the rim so put the seat down for cleanliness, for children and so ladies don't sit on the rim in the middle of the night. Especially if they are pregnant.
Thats what i don't understand about some womens. Why would you enter a room, put everything down and sit on something that you haven't bother to take a look? I allways check on where im going to put my butt, i don't care if it is my own house in my own bathroom. I allways check because you never know what could be lying on there or what is not there.

i put a toilet seat cover on that was real thick like a shag rug. I put a matching cover on the tank. The lids would not stay open on their own. You either held them with one hand, or it would close whether you were done or not. You could also sit down to do your business.
well some men can be careless sometimes. its the way they are. either that or they can leave spatters everywhere because they dont aim right. its one r the other
