Perfect reply Tom! At home, I leave the seat up to let everyone in this sea of estrogen I've swum in for 30 years know that my lone self did not dribble on the seat.
The best solution is to sit down and evacuate your bladder. While standing, there is not one corner, crack or crevice I've gone in that did not splatter stuff out of the bowl and onto my nekkid feet. It's OK to sit down to pee. Standing up is a convenience that males inherit by having the world as a urinal. If you have all that fuzzy crap around your crapper, it needs to be pee'd on to make you throw it away. Nasty!
Another point - I used to hate sitting down on a COLD public toilet. Then one day I happened to sit on a WARM one - YUCK! Shut up and go pee.
Paula, what do you think? I've dealt with the issue from differing views. One from the sensible wife who asked me, "Please leave the seat up, so I'll know I don't have to clean it?". The other from my 'dumber than a bag of hammers' sister in law who said, "Put the seat down after you use it". She must have fallen in a time or two. I can see it now - Jackie backing into a dark bathroom, pulling down her unmentionables, saying quietly, "Please let it be down, I really don't want to fall in!!!".
Ladies, please turn the light on and look at the thing - you'll see.
Do you hang your toilet paper roll over or under on the holder?
