Feminist social engineering
Male representatives from the Sormland County Council in Sweden and the Left Party are actively campaigning for “sitting only” public restrooms.
These socialist and feminist political groups are aiming to make restrooms more sanitary, and we all know how easy it is for men tend to miss their target when they pee standing up.
The groups are also stressing how peeing sitting down empties the bladder more effectively and can therefore improve a man’s erectile health and sex life.
University of Louisville professor John Gamel doesn’t believe that seated urination laws will necessarily make male restrooms any more sanitary than they already are. Gamel spoke to The Huffington Post about how even after peeing sitting down, no man will want to shake himself off by sticking his hand between his legs and into a toilet.
He’ll get up, shake himself off and the inevitable sprinkle will find its way to the seat.
Feminists in various areas of Europe have actually begun carrying signs saying “Drop your trousers and sit” with a picture of a man peeing standing up covered by a big red “X.”
Some women have even posted fliers in public restrooms saying “Not another filthy puddle on MY bathroom floor!”
Though this outrageous law would only first be enacted in Sweden, The Naked Scientist reports that a similar initiative is also being pushed by activist organizations in Germany, France and Holland.

public restrooms are breeding places for disease-causing bacteria.
"Every time you go to the bathroom you're playing Russian Roulette," said Chuck Gerba, a professor of soil and water science. Gerba and his assistant, microbiology and immunology graduate student Denise Kennedy, are the first people to study public restro oms so thoroughly.
And what they found might surprise you.
While men's restrooms smell worse and contain more litter than women's restrooms, women's restrooms actually contain more fecal bacteria than men's. Fecal bacteria, found in the intestinal tract, are an indicator of the potential presence of other disease -causing organisms that shed from the intestinal tract.[/b]
Kennedy discovered a two-to-one ratio between the bacteria in women's and men's bathrooms, which means there are more bacteria in women's bathrooms to cause sickness.
"I didn't expect women's restrooms to be so much higher in bacteria than men's," Kennedy said.
