If you are a dude sit down to pee when you are home.... feels weird for like a day but it is fantastic. No more trying to aim on the middle of the night while trying to close your eyes, no more rouge pee stream, just a like moment to sit and relax.

Rogue: deviant from the norm.

Rouge: a shade of red.

If your pee is rouge when you stand, you need to see your doctor.

Or maybe you just ate a lot of beetroot.

I remember as a kid really being into eating drained.can beets soaked in vinegar..... I ate enough in a day it turned.my pee slightly pink.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Your stomach acid is what breaks the color down. If you take a few antacids or a proton pump inhibitor before eating a bunch of beets, your urine will turn bright red.

Why you gotta try to impress people with all your dumb book learnin? Just use Normal people colors.

Edit: no trailer Park boys fans here apparently

I learned this lesson pretty quickly, once I started to have to clean my own apartment.

Haha exactly, no matter how careful you are you can't stop a 3am wild pee fork.

Weird, based on your username I'd have guessed you had different pissing habits.

Haha Well I didn't say I was StandingPissinSelfNdriveway.

I do notice though that when trying to pee sitting, I don't get everything out. A lot of times, I stand up afterwards and still get some more out

Ya gotta lean forward and give it a good jiggle before you get up and it is usually ok

Some men feel emasculated by the idea of sitting to pee. Really guys? I wonder what goes on in the privacy of their bathrooms, when they’re pinching the proverbial loaf. Do they stand up to pee and sit to pass? Of course not. :: Sitting to pee is what you do if you want to keep the toilet area clean. You can be a big strong man and still be a sitzpinkler.

I will play devil's advocate and argue that it's just more convenient the same way a urinal is convenient. Not sitting down saves time. That's all.
