why can males not aim loo,is it lazyness?

Question

every time I go to loo in my house either my hubby or son has the floor soaked,the seat either dribbled on or left up,no amount of asking them to stop it works,Is it maybe an animal thing like marking their territory?If anyone knows why males do this it would be interesting,I need a cure for it or I am going to get revenge by peeing in their cars

Answer 1

No, they may have coughed

Answer 2

Well, we don't need maps to drive, so maybe there is another explanation.

Actually, the opening in our you-know-whats is unpredictable. Sometimes, our spray goes in a straight line and that's easy to aim.

Other times, the opening is oval shaped, so the spray goes off to the side. Or it will split into two streams and get on the wall and the floor. Sometimes we have waited too long to go, so we have a full bladder and the fluid pressure is too strong - then we end up going all over the back of the toilet seat. An hour late, the bladder is normal and the pressure is easier to manage.

Whatever it is, it is totally unpredictable and I don't know the reason why. Perhaps it's the way we have been sitting in the last hour.

Note, that as men age, our urethras lose flexibility and our bladders can't hold as much, so we just urinate down our legs. Or, we can't shut off the flow as reliably, so we just dribble. The ultimate humilation is when we just pee in our pants. Then it's time for adult diapers.

Hope this helps. Or at least makes you laugh, and understand our predicament.

Its something to do with the flow just like a hosepipe, if you put your finger on the end you'll get the idea...

But you need to do something about the pee and i think you should start with the youngest and learn him the ways of cleaning up his mess and how the toilet seat works...

Its always good hygeine practice to put the lid down and make a point of all the germs that escape when the toilet is flushed with the seat up, also enphasize the washing of hands...

You can also try leaving posters on the wall above the toilet saying things like (Make sure your aim is right before you fire) (If your gonna spray, come what may, clean your mess, or you'll get less....) mainly for your hubby...

Also make him clean up his mess, after all he did it. It will also help if you go to them both and say who cant keep there fire hose under contol, the bathroom needs cleaning and instuct them to do it.

Other than that tell them to sit down on the loo if the cant be bothered to aim right....

similar problem and it solved it for me....
Good luck!

Hmmm, why do all women leave hair in the sink? Wait, not all women do that, and, not all men exhibit the behavior you described. I suspect son followed in father's foot-steps, but regardless, since they refuse to comply with your request, you either have to live with the mess, or find another way to get through to 'em. Too bad they don't see the untidiness of their behavior, so perhaps you should quit cleaning around the toilet. Let them see the filth and after a couple of days, they should get the picture. If you have a rug around the base of the toilet, remove it. Let them see and hear the splashing. Get a piece of cord and wrap it around the toilet seat and the cover, basically tying them together. They'll only hit the top of the cover, or the bottom of the seat. They'll soon start to change.

Good luck

If all else fails, send them to bed without any supper, or, pee in their cars :)

Answer 5

I'm sorry this turned out to be such a long answer. I hope you find it worth reading and helpful.
Toilets are not designed for men. I think a residential Urinals would save a lot of grief in alot of marriages. It is very difficult for a man to hit the target first thing in the morning. If you need to know why watch the movie 40 Year Old Virgin.(although peeing straight has nothing to do with being a virgin). The rest of the time it is not so difficult, but accidents happen. If your husband consistently misses it's either because he has some sort of physical condition and he is to lazy to clean it up, or he has no respect for his home or you (which includes being lazy). If I miss I clean it up. This is something I learned from my mother and two sisters at an early age and my dad was a role model. They never yelled or fussed they just let me know that's the way it should be and I learned. What I'm saying is that to most parents potty training is done when the child stops peeing and pooping in diapers.
It goes without saying that you know your husband and his temperament better than I, so follow my advice at your own risk. I wouldn't want you to get smacked or something.
Try this, when you find a wet seat ask them to pull their pants down and sit on it, not that you should expect them to or try to make them. At this point you can express how you feel about sitting in pee and or cleaning up someone Else's.
Try this, when you find a puddle. Without letting them know why, be nice and ask husband and son to borrow something you know is one of their favorite possession, pocket knife, toy..etc. Put the items in the pee. Now point it out to both of them. Let them know that your house (their house too) is one of your favorite possessions and it is being peed on daily.
Repeat as necessary, don't expect your husband to give up is pocket knife too many times, but when you say "anybody want to sit on the toilet" or "can I see your knife for a sec" they will know what you mean.
Be willing to compromise on the seat up or down thing. It is no more difficult for you to lower it than it is for them to raise and lower it. Just watch where you sit. and when you see it up just let it be a reminder that there are two men living with you, and they more than likely love you more than anything else in the world.

Answer 6

It's not a Male thing,Nor is it laziness. I;m a lazy Male. Leaving the seat down & peeing on it is just plain inconciderate. During your busy day ,there must be several duties you preform for your ol-man .Making him his lunch,cleaning the house ,ect,ect. strategically select a couple of those duties & stop preforming them.

Answer 7

It's not lazyness.

I had this problem the other week when I went out in my best suit. For some reason every now and again it just sprays like a water sprinkler.

Now where is the embaressed smiley ?

Answer 8

Well dear, it's all in the training. My mom used to make me clean it up, no matter who made the mess. I also had to put the lid down after I was done. I realized after I reached a certain height, that my aim isn't so good, especially right after you wake up. So, I just resolved myself to the fact that unless there is a urinal, you just have to sit down.

Answer 9

set up a cleaning list ..give them the nasty bathroom that they pee all over ..or have a pee party invite all the family over to see what bathroom looks like after your son and hubby have used it post on the door evidence room bacteria plagued from hit and miss actions of male gender living in home ....sounds like hubby and son have no regards for others using the bathroom nor do they care that you have to clean up their disgusting habit of missing the target !!

Answer 10

Why dont you try sitting a couple of feet above the loo and see how acurate you are

Answer 11

Are they both Aquarian star signs by chance!I think it is just a male thing,we have a bad sense of direction.
