    I've never understood why it's only polite for a man to leave it down but not for a woman to leave it up. Courtesy works both ways. When I was just dating my husband and I was at his place, I always put the seat back up since it was his place.

    I'm more concerned that you actually aimed for and got it all in the bowl.

    My 16 year old daughter sat in the toilet in the middle of the night a few weeks ago and couldnt get out. Man, you would have thought we had a murderer in the house the way she screamed. Funny as hell!!!

    But I still want the seat down because I don't like to touch the seat unless I'm there to clean it with gloves on. OCD.

    This is what my fiancee explained to me too in regards to why she wants me to put the seat down. Apparently it's fine that I have to touch it though =P

    Yes....but, I'm a clutz and when I go to pee in the middle of the night and the nightlight casts a funky shadow it makes it look like the toilet seat is down. Or when I'm doing the funky chicken because I have to pee so bad, my mind plays tricks on me and makes me think it's down.

    Good men should just give in to a woman's uncertainties and put the f*#^$)@ toilet seat down to save us the embarrassment.

    Yes I look. It's not something that I will always remember to do though, I don't expect to have to check every time.
    So occasionally if it's dark and I've just come down in the middle of the night to use the toilet, I won't. I wouldn't like to be woken up by falling in the toilet!! (I don't actually fall in, but almost!) Thankfully my bf has never failed to put the seat back down in the whole 6 years I've know him :happy:

    Once upon a time I was sleeping on the couch at a friend's house. The roommates were three dirty, dirty men.

    I was drunk as a skunk, it was pitch black, and I accidentally sat down on the toilet with the seat up. I did NOT fall in. I balanced momentarily then got up, put the seat down, and went on with my life.

    If I can manage that while intoxicated, I think most females should be able to handle themselves sober.

    Just sayin'.

    I was just about to post my drunken toilet seat was left up story...only mine ends with me at my dads house drunk with my butt stuck in the toilet because he had left the seat up...you must be so much more graceful than I have ever hoped to be!

    That happened to my cousin when I was a kid. I got a concussion because I literally fell in the floor and hit my head due to laughing so hard.

    In the middle of the night I don't turn on the light so as not to fully wake...

    Men really will look to shift blame in the great toilet seat debate. We sit all the time, and you sit some of the time. More sitting is done than standing therefore the seat should stay down.

    God forbid the woman drives the car and doesn't move the seat back and you bang your knees. THAT is totally unacceptable, but it's all our responsibility to make sure our vaginas stay out of the damn toilet water.

    :noway:

    I live alone so the seat is ALWAYS down...and even though I am going to my own toilets, I still look at the seats out of habit ( I have two brothers)... So yea..I dont get the arguments either lol...When approaching a toliet, its normal to look at the toliet first before sitting down. :flowerforyou:

    so wait....does the lid have to be down too? Because if that is the case, why do men have to check for that when we stumble in half awake?

    And when it is dark, I prefer to use pee and listen-style echolocation.

    I have kids. One that has only been potty trained for half a year. I HAVE to look at the toilet before I sit down. I do it no matter where I go. Plus, my family loves to play pranks. Gotta make sure I'm not going to end up peeing all over myself or getting powder all over my @ss lol.
