Peeing sitting down is superior (hexbear.net)

I've quite recently made a change to sitting down to pee instead of the usual point and shoot and I can't believe I haven't earlier. It's quieter, more comfortable and completely avoids any potential mess from split streams or spraying. Standing does have its place and can be more convenient in certain scenarios but I don't think it should be standard for penis-havers. Do people think it's gay or something?

Thoughts and feelings would be appreciated and will advance the piss discourse of the site.

This but semi-ironically. Squatting is the natural and therefore easiest position to shit. We make it harder for ourselves and cause more rectal issues by sitting.

Same for pissing too

Ehh, not so much for guys.

The other way around actually, it's not the case for people with a vagina squatting because their urethra is so short.

If you have a penis, then you have a much longer urethra that goes down from the bladder, curves up and then curves down again. Squatting is helpful to completely void the bladder, particularly if you have an enlarged prostate, kidney stone, inflammation etc

Folls can try this next time they're peeing outside and have a long stay. Try squatting and standing mid piss. You can feel the flow loosen up

Or you could just lean forward while sitting, it does the same thing.

Not really. It helps a bit but it's still worse than squatting.
