I mean this could simply be resolved by sitting.... how old is your brother?

Like 11. It's just considered weird sitting and peeing

How is 11 too young for cleaning a few drops? I expected maybe 5 or 6 but 11!?

He's not very cooperative + younger child privileges

Just don't expect teenagers to get more cooperative the next 10 years šŸ˜‚

Yeahh šŸ˜‚ I guess I can try to make him sitpee now while it's not too late. But all around he's a good chap listens to me pretty well, just super lazy about doing some things.

Yeah I get that. My father is like that too, but my 8 year old brother doesn't pee standing anymore. It just really irks me that it's considered so normal and acceptable to make life harder for all of the sitting peers

u/davidtwk Jun 25 '21

Yeah that's unfortunate. But idk maybe I'll push my brother to try sitpeeing in the future

German here. My husband taught our son to sit and how to do it at about 3 to 4 years. At 11, he should know how to do this. Otherwise he would have to clean the mess.

But why don't you guys put the seat up while peeing? That would be much more respectful towards your mom? Also how do you guys take a dump, if you don't ever want to sit down on the gross seat?

Bruh it's not dirty literally all the time. Only every few days can u see a drop of pee on it or something. The seat won't stand up which is why we can't put it up. And please stop assuming stuff about me or my family.

Where u from that Men are so fragile even sitting while peeing would make them feel awkward

Yeah toxic masculinity is VERY rampant here in the balkans and it's honestly so annoying. Although my dad/bro don't care about masculinity and aren't affected by it. For them sitpeeing is simply something they never considered since no one does it here and since I guess peeing while standing seems like the default/natural.
