As a trans woman I never liked public bathrooms before transitioning. I've rarely ever used urinals and peeing while standing seems always messier, even if outdoors. In a toilet stall where you can sit, you can always also use toilet paper. (And especially with a penis you don't have to sit down completely, you can squat over the seat of it is too dirty.) When peeing while standing don't you all get a bit of pee in your underpants?? And people who pee standing while on a toilet with a seat (be it at home or visiting someone) are just disgusting. And I don't know any fellow Germans who stand while peeing at home. One generation up it was still very different. I guess this is one of the outcomes of feminism that taught cis men to be responsible for their own mess. If you never had to clean your urine of the toilet or floor you had hardly any incentive to pay attention. Glad this has somewhat changed.

100% of the time, if you pee standing up and the pee lands within about a meter of you (you're not peeing off a cliff or off the side of a boat, etc), you will get splashback on your body and clothes. Every single time. It's simple physics.
I can't sit. There's a kink in my tubing somewhere that closes off when I sit. Then I stand up, and I always have to turn around to finish anyway.
And if the bowl's not elongated, I end up...touching...the water or the bowl, and that creeps me out.
Ah the old “witches kiss”, always a gross feeling
How do you not know?? Lmao
yeah all I thought maybe people with a catheter.
Or they're fish or something.

My favorite was always
"We aim to please, you aim too please"
As always, Australia is deeply conflicted on the issue.
Nice and even across the board
Anywhere they aren't animals or who have partners/roommates that make them clean the base of the toilet/walls themselves because piss splashes.
After having an exploratory done after getting stabbed, I started sitting all the time because since then, every time I pee standing up it's uncomfortable and get piss shivers. When they pull everything out, it never goes back quite the same and I guess this is part of the "Well you're doing this now" part of the rest of my life.
The piss shivers are messy at a bowl and really fucking awkward when at a urinal.
I am sure this could be, or have been, fixed with a procedure, or some form of treatment/phsyo, but it took no time at all to realize pitting (pee AND sitting lol) is just better, and didn't really think or go back to the old ways and practices of expelling my liquid waste.
The toilet, generally.
