Swedish Left Party Chapter Wants To Make Urinating While Standing Illegal For Men

Quote:
Swedish Left Party Chapter Wants To Make Urinating While Standing Illegal For Men

Take a stand -- and sit down for what you believe in.

Male representatives on the Sormland County Council in Sweden should sit rather than stand while urinating in office restrooms, according to a motion advanced by the local Left Party.

Known as a socialist and feminist organization, the party claims that seated urination is more hygienic for men -- the practice decreases the likelihood of puddles and other unwanted residue forming in the stall -- in addition to being better for a man's health by more effectively emptying one's bladder, The Local reported.

But not everyone agrees.

"Men scatter urine not so much during the actual urination as during the 'shaking off' that follows," John Gamel, a professor at the University of Louisville, wrote while addressing the issue in 2009. "As a result, forcing men to sit while emptying their bladders will serve little purpose, since no man wants to shake himself off while remaining seated on the toilet."

A representative from the party said he hopes to move toward sitting only bathrooms.

POLL: Does this argument hold water?

Still unsure where you stand on the issue? Here are a few words of wisdom from comedian Larry David.

Saw this on another forum I visit regularly.

Sweden is the most pussified non-English speaking country I can possibly think of. Emasculation runs deep there, and women's lib basically has the men there standing in line to be castrated one by one.

Why do we have to sit down again? Another incidence where the blatantly stupid is allowed to talk.

The fact that this was proposed by feminists is enough to dismiss it for being ludicrous.

Have you ever tried pissing with a giant boner?
It's amazingly difficult to pee standing up, sitting down is impossible unless you got a microdick.

Yup.
Though I see it also as women complaining that since they can't pee standing up (nearly as well as men can), they don't want men to do it.
Most men could use some target practise though.



E: Btw, where's the "No, no, no, HELL NO!" option?

Don't you mean "It's nice to see other countries being more absurd as the USA"?

Too bad Sweden's men are so pussified, they'd never have the balls to even think such a thought...
