As above.
I find it fascinating that if you don’t put the toilet seat down after doing your thing, the next time your Other half or any woman use the toilet they fall into it? What’s the deal with this as I just don’t get it? Do they never look? Or because the toilet seat is the same colour as the toilet, they can’t see it? What is it? biggrin it’s funny anyway

I think we should all moan when they don’t leave it up.

Think you’re missing the point that the seat and lid should be down before you flush it anyway, no?

Mrs C was always moaning about me not putting the seat down (never a mention of the lid so it couldn’t have been for aesthetic or hygiene purposes) so now I ensure that I put the lid down every time too. evil

I never used to bother till I spotted our 2nd cat that we got about 4 years ago drinking from the bowl with her front two paws inside the rim. Seat is always down now.

I'm so old, I now sit down for a pee* anyway, so there's no problem.
Otherwise there's no telling which direction the main jet will head, plus it's nice to sit down for a rest.

* Well, except for first thing in the morning, when I have to do the old handstand thing. evil

As a poster above mentioned, the womenfolk never lift the the bog seat back up for their menfolk, do they? Surely that is just as inconsiderate?

The Germans encourage "sitzpinkler" in gender neutral (or Unisex as we used to call them) facilities, to the extent of a bell going off should you dare to lift the seat for a pee. Apparently sitting while urinating is good for your prostate (or is that just propaganda?)

I was on mumsnet (I know, I know) where one of the posters complained that she hated putting the seat back down because it was dirty and disgusting. I did question why it was ok for a man to have to lift said dirty and disgusting seat up and down but not her.... for some reason she never replied

Question for those who object to putting the seat or lid down:

Why do toilets have a lid in the first place? scratchchin

I appears that's what many men do. And the floor.

It’s usually a moan about not putting the seat down. Not a moan about not putting the lid down.

If you want a cleaner toilet, the lid should be down before you flush.

Of course then everyone has to lift something and put something down again, and that doesn’t seem to be satisfactory to the complainant(s).

If on the other hand you just want the crapper to be permanently ready for your use and have your other half do all that tedious, dirty, disgusting and demeaning lifting of the seat and putting it down again afterwards, so that you don’t have to, then that would maybe be pretty bloody self-centred…

Definitely this, the lid and seat should be down anyway, if you lift the seat put it back! do you leave drawers and cupboards open?
