Do you think it's customary/polite for men to put toilet seats down in homes also occupied by women? My brother thinks it's a double-standard that women don't put the seat up for men in kind, so he boycotted putting the seat down 😂
Nobody is obligated to leave the toilet seat a certain way. It's retarded when women complain about men not leaving the seat down. If I dealt with that, I'd leave the seat up for spite. Men don't complain about women not putting the seat up for them. Adjust the seat if you need to instead making a huge argument out of nothing. When the seat is down and I need it up, I put it up. When the seat is up and I need it down, I put it down.
The purpose of toilet seats is to avoid sitting on the cold ceramics, and to put them up is a means to be able to clean the toilet and the seat properly from both sides. So unless you do not clean the seat or toilet there is no reason to put it up? Though some men do not sit down while peeing and they spray themselves, the seat and the bathroom with urine and call that a manly way of life .....
If men have to put the seat up before they use the toilet, it's only fair that women have to put it down themselves when they want to use it. Plus, it's <current year>, and it's sexist to treat women like they're incapable of moving a toilet seat. By leaving it up, I'm helping to make a more equal society!
It is polite but I understand your brothers opinion. In my house all of us would just put the seat and the lid down when we were done. That way it looks more presentable (according to me mum) and we didn't have to worry about the cat or dog getting into it. I personally think that's the best compromise
I agree with your brother, I think the whole toilet seat drama is making a mountain out of a molehill in order to control men. Girls act like it's rude not to leave the toilet seat down for them, when they can easily put it down themselves and it's no big deal, while meanwhile nobody's complaining that girls don't leave them up for guys.
The other thing that bothers me about the toilet seat thing is that so many women fall into this pattern of complaining about the toilet seat and raising petty drama, without even thinking about it, just because so many other women do it. It exemplifies an extreme tendency toward mindless groupthink in humans that really bothers me.
Of course, to even have a use/context for the whole toilet seat drama, a woman has to have certain aspects of her personality and her dynamic with her bf/husband in a certain way, and it's dismaying that so many people have cookie-cutter personalities and approaches to life.
