"a friend made a seat that would only stay down if it was being sat on just to get his own way in a house he shared with wife and 3 daughters  "
What a legend!! |

You might think it weird of me but I nearly always sit down to pee, unless I'm using public bathrooms.
As such the seat always remains down and the other women in my house have nothing to complain about  |

Well I have a Coway washlet bidet so I get to be the most snooty of them all.
That said my pet peeve is the brush, finding it waterclogged in a little plastic cup. It is bizarre this is legal. The way of the future is to A: put down a few squares of tissue to prepare the way... and B: to hang the brush under the seat so it drips away and can be hung up later on a return visit.

Ignoring the hygiene aspect which kind of wins the argument...
Have you ever accidentally tried sitting on a toilet whose seat was up?
Do that once and you will be putting the seat down the rest of your life! |

Seat and lid down in my house. Mrs |

Cos it needs to go down when you have a shit regardless and it hides the dried up splashes from blokes who are too lazy to wipe it up after or hit the bowl properly. I'd rather just save myself the agro all round n not live with a bloke. |

I’m the unicorn of toiletry: I sit down for a wee (saves aiming) and I close the lid in case the cat tries to drink from the pan and drowns while I’m out (yeah I know, unlikely, but I do worry  )
Maybe I’ll patent a cut-out device which prevents the toilet from being flushed unless the seat and lid are closed…. |

Those saying it's disgusting to flush with the lid up may need a re-think.
"Researchers at University College Cork assessed the airborne particles in a shared lavatory over a week. They used a bioaerosol sensor to continually monitor the number and size of particles as well as whether they were likely to contain bacteria.
The research found that putting the toilet lid down reduced the number of both visible and smaller droplets during and after flushing by 30-60%. However, use of the lid also increased the diameter and concentration of the bacteria in these droplets.
It was also found that airborne microdroplets were detected for 16 minutes after flushing the toilet with the lid down, 11 minutes longer than when the toilet was flushed with the lid up"
Given that there is zero evidence of disease spread caused by aerosols from a flushed toilet I am not convinced about the idea that it is disgusting. However, given that disgust is an emotional response that is not influenced by rational thought, saying this is incredibly unlikely to change anyone's mind.
OP, it's simple just sit down. No matter how careful you aim there is always a small amount of spray from splashing against the side which means wasteful use of toilet roll yo wipe and inevitably takes just as long as doing your clothes back up. Plus, it's much more relaxing to sit and not need to concentrate on aim.
Or just do what a lot of men do and ignore the splashes so they build up and leave yellow damp patches around the feet under the seat - now that is disgusting.
