The other day I came across a very interesting organization known as MAPSU (Mothers Against Peeing Standing Up). This organization is basically advocating for men to stop peeing standing up. They would like us men to take a seat. There reason for this is quite simple --- men tend to miss the bowl a lot. These mothers are simply tired of cleaning up after their husbands, boyfriends, and sons. And they are right! If the pee stains on the floor around most public urinals is any evidence, most men have terrible aim. I will even implicate myself by admitting that there have been nights when I tried peeing in the dark and --- well, I missed. (I will not put a time frame on when or where these incidents actually took place). But yes, if big men still can't adjust their aim properly, you can only imagine the mess that little boys create. I can't imagine why boys are encouraged to pee standing up. It must be a macho thing. But I understand the frustration of MAPSU. They hate having to clean that yellow stain on the rim of the bowl. Their goal is to "transform the way the world goes to the bathroom by 2010". I personally won't be sitting down to pee anytime soon, I'm afraid I am too ingrained in my ways. And I won't be teaching my sons to sit either, I'm afraid that is just a tad bit too gay for my tastes. But I wish MAPSU lots of luck! It's a worthy cause.
Peeing sitting down is thoroughly emasculating. It is no wonder that is created through the evil empire (AMAZONIA). Where will it end??? Are men to end up as tame, pet-like creatures that take the garbage out?? Rise up, Stand up, and Pee like there was no tomorrow.

I've been peeing while sitting for years. It started on a sailing trip. The boat was rocking and the bowl was small. One of the crew suggested that the men sit so that the head (bathroom) stays clean for everybody. It worked so well that I do it at home too. My aim is OK, but my stream does not stay together. So even if I hit the center of the bowl, droplets hit the sides. Now there's no more splash-over, no more pubic hair on the rim, and the bowl only needs cleaning every couple of weeks.
