Just let her think she's clever. Maybe she'll take her manhating to another thread . Lord knows she's shat all over the place with it.

i leave the seat down, too much hastle for me to deal with. If i pee on the seat i take a couple of squares of tp and wipe it off. I make it fun too by turning a race out of it. Ill flush see if I can get TP, Wipe seat and get TP into the toilet before it does it gurgle thing at the end of its flush.

Here's why this isn't a fair request, particularly if you have an even amount of men and women in your household.

You go into pee. The toliet seat is down. You lift it up, pee and then put it down again. Everything is copacetic for her...but you're constantly lift and lowering the seat which is totally inconvient for you. How is that fair?

If you just leave the seat up, then when she goes in she has to put the seat down. When you go in you have to put it up. And if you were the last one in there you have to do nothing, just like her if she was the last in. Even amount of work.

This is all a moot point for me anyway though, since both lids go down in my house to prevent the cat from playing in the toliet.

I Hate to have to use a bathroom after women have,

My mother is the only woman that's EVER been in my house that puts the lid down when she's done.

well.. if I ever visit you, I'll do the same.

If you leave the seat down then the wife complains about the wet seat after the dog 'gets a drink'

If women can forget to put the seat down before squatting then I think the men should be able to forget to put the seat up before pissing all over it.

If I need to take a dump, I don't stand there and b1tch at myself for leaving the seat up. I *gasp* LOOK before I sit my bare ass on an instrument of defilement and adjust the seat accordingly.

My wife and I have a "fun" relationship. We prove most points to one another through actions. It makes life interesting. Anyway, she complained about the seat being up one time. I promised her that it wouldn't be a problem again... so I stopped lifting the seat. When she got tired of sitting in urine, she discovered that an alternative solution existed: women, too, are capable of altering the seat's position. She gave me the finger, and we moved on with life. I lift the seat up to piss, she puts it down to piss. It's a real neat system.

we have a "you break it, you fix it" relationship. tomorrow is our 26th anniversary, it seems to work. the last time my husband left the toilet seat up, our then 2yo daughter got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and fell in to the toilet (she was not tall enough to turn on the light). she splashed, she wailed, it was high middle of the night drama but he broke it, he fixed it, and he hasn't broken it since.

it did take longer to convince him the lid needed to be down, but kittens took care of that.

Next time a woman bitches to you about falling into the toilet, tell her that she should be lucky that her ass is small enough to fall through the rim...a chubby fat ass would have just got wedged in there

I didn't read all 13 pages, but I complain when the LID isn't down. I think it is nasty to leave the lid up, even if the seat is down. Who wants to look at a bowl you poop in?

It's only water (unless you regularly leave kids swimming in the pool).

I say put it down. Even if they are dumb and careless enough to not check first, it's sad to think that somebody will have to dip their rear into toilet water just because she's an idiot

it's just common courtesy.

Then YOU leave the seat up for me when YOU'RE done...

There's your two-way street.

(And don't tell me I need the seat down once in awhile too... unlike you, I'm perfectly capable of performing the action should the need arise)

I can't understand why some guys get all bent about this. Why are you so incapable of showing a little consideration for the fairer sex? Do you not like women? What's your deal? That would be like me getting upset because my dog wants me to walk her...:roll:

A don't think that women like to be compared to bitches

That being said. My dogs can't walk themselves down street without feeling the urge to run in the middle of the road or chase after a squirrel or attack a little child

A woman, however, has the brains (hopefully) to be able to see if a seat is down before she sits.

It's the principle of it. Women since the Feminist movement have been claiming they want equality. OK, time to give them equality. With equal rights comes equal responsibilities.

This is just a tiny example but it clealy shows women don't want equality, they want to have all the same rights as men but not all the same responsibilites. They want to get it all without giving all.

As for my home, both the seat and the lid are down when the toilets are not in use. I feel that looks best and is cleanest. However, anytime I hear women complain about, "that guy didn't put the seat down for me", I just roll my eyes and think, "yet, another American 'princess'".

you obviously don't read well. we are not b1tching about women wanting the toilet seat down, we are b1tching about them b1tching about it. what is so hard to understand about that.

face it, women make many demands in life, i have no problem accomodating the women in my life for most things, this just seems like a particularly stupid one for them to b1tch about all the time. take out the trash, no problem, do the laundry, no problem, change the oil in the car, no problem, change the tire, no problem . . .

but put down the fvcking toilet seat every time i pee, that's just plain stupid.

it's part immaturity, part of the reason they are single, and part being arrogant.

I've learned over time to simply put both lids down. The thing that pisses me off. Is I pick both lids up and put them back down but women can't be bothered to put both lids down. They only want to put the 1 seat down that they use. They don't care about the cover or whether it is up or down. They are just as lazy as guys

And my GF has not ONCE bitched about the toilet seat. Thank GOD Besides she probably knows that the minutes she bitches about the toilet seat, I will bitch about something she does (like use up all of my damn toilet paper or leaving hair in my sink/tub/floor).

Yeah, you women do sh!t too, but we don't always have to bitch about it. I could bitch to my GF about those things, but I don't.
