 Women and toilet seats.
#8395367 - 05/13/08 02:29 AM (6 months, 8 days ago) |

I never had a problem with this before as I've always had a toilet where the seat falls down anyway. But not in my new place it stays up. So my wife is nagging the hell out me because i leave it up and that despite nagging, I KEEP leaving it up. Complete with moody periods and likewise sustained silence.
She says it's about respect. She gets more respect than she will ever appreciate, but leave the toilet seat up and suddenly I'm compared to the phantom majority of other men who always are considerate and put it down.
Women it seems, need us men to manage the toilet for them as it must be some sort of emotional thrill to walk into the bathroom backwards, in the dark with your eyes closed and faithfully drop upon the toilet.
You know, I've been putting it up for myself since as long as i can remember. I have never felt compelled to whimsically play the urine equivalent of "pin the tail" And if for some bizarre reason i had an embarrassing moment of clumsiness, the last thing I'm going to want to do is make my domestic life hell over it by acting unbearably.
So I tell her theres simply no way I'm going to remember every time, and you're only going to pay attention to the times I forget. Theres just no fathomable way.
And she tells me that most men remember to do this. I told her maybe in the dream world.
So I've been up looking for statistical evidence about men, women and toilets. All i can find is anecdotal evidence, Of course mens points of views are logical and fair, often far more humorous. and womens comments are basically all confessions that they are incapable of looking before they sit down. and this makes men inconsiderate......
HA!
Maybe a toilet seat is ironic, because I KNOW a woman isn't going to see the irony in calling a man inconsiderate for counting on them to be considerate of their own surroundings.
what really irks me is that she actually believes that the majority of men put the seat down after. You know I probably do most of the time.
in 2 weeks I forgot to 3 times. And to her thats every time.
I'm tired of it. It's the stupidest argument in the world and she will take it to the point of family dysfunction even though I inform her in all honesty that it's pointless. She would rather make my life miserable (and hers in the process) than do the simple REQUIREMENT of checking to see if anything is amiss with the toilet.
what it boils down to is if You can't remember to check the seat when the consequence is a wet messy splashdown, how the hell can I?
It is frankly not my responsibility, and never will be, consideration is not a issue here, I'm VERY considerate, I consider the facts, she doesn't.
If you can't be mindful of the toilet, you can't complain If I'm not.
It's clear that shes not angry that I'm not mindful of the toilet, shes really angry that I'm not mindful of her deficiency in awareness.
In essence I'M the one responsible for her flaw.
And when I say flaw, of course I mean no disrespect. But anything that causes so much misery, is CLEARLY a problem.

What I don't understand is why we are expected to put the seat up AND down.. and they are expected to do... nothing? Double standards FTL?
Just tell her you'll do nothing too and just leave it down, then piss all over the seat... oh.. wait...
Putting the seat up IS being considerate. Putting it down should be their job if they want it down. Logic FTW

I really don't see why some women bitch about the toilet seat being left up.
It's ironic, really. she's calling the man lazy b/c he doesn't simply put it down, but she's being lazy too by not wanting to put it down...
then there's the whole "I accidentally sat down on the toilet when the seat was up". bullfuckingshit. Seriously, if someone can't see the toilet seat is up BEFORE they sit down, then chances are they're retarded and probably shouldn't be going to the bathroom alone.
Most straight girls annoy the FUCK out of me. I seriously don't see how guys deal with the constant nagging and bitchery. I honestly have like 1 close friend who's a straight girl and I feel sorry for her boyfriend listening to her CONSTANT chattering and nagging and complaining.

holy crap, this is like a tv sitcom. i didn't think people actually had arguments like this in real life.
i never put the seat up or down when in my own house. if i pee on it by accident i wipe it up.
when i go to someone elses house i always put it fully down, so it is completely closed.

put the seat and the back down, then see what she says
but yah everytime i gotta take a piss i gotta lift the fuckin thing up so its a 2 way street.
after doing what i suggested above for a week, tell her in your next argument that its a matter of respect and her sexist behavior to stfu. its not the mans job to help her use a freakin toliet.
when she freaks out about that tell her you will comprimise and respect her by putting the seat down if she puts it back up after she's done.

Just completely close the lid when done and insist she do the same. Both of you now how to lift something to use the toilet. Isn't life fun.

it's more fun if after she goes to bed you cover the bowl in
plastic wrap, place the lid and seat down and then go to bed
yourself, when she gets up for that late night pee.... that'll
teach her
if she hasnt learned anything from that experience, apply a
light film of baby oil to the seat, after she gets her oily, wet
butt off the now urine covered floor she may realize that it
doesnt matter which position the seat is in
