Left Party wants men to pee sitting down (Sweden)

The Left Party in Sörmland is taking a stand to ensure men take a seat when emptying their bladders in the county council's own toilets.

According to the party, there are two very important reasons for the proposal encouraging men to sit instead of stand when they urinate.

One reason has to do with hygiene and a desire to ensure that no one who uses the toilets at the county council's offices will be required to walk through puddles or residue left by stray urine which happens to splash out of the bowl and onto the floor when male employees pee standing up.

So what you guys and gals think? Good that there won't be wet seats? Bad that you have to sit where some drug addict sat? What about men with large tools, who can't do it sitting down? And probably most important question - don't officials have more important things to do?

Maybe the party leader in question is sick of having to clear up after other people.

Much more of an issue is people that refuse to flush public toilets IMO.

After Australia, now Sweden also celebrates April Fools day?

It said to be 2 reasons, only 1 was mentioned.
Conclusion, not serious.

Brb, Have a restroom in Sörmland to use.

I don't see the problem having that as a rule in their offices, it's their choice as to what the policies are in their workplace, no? How is this a news article o.O

I don't see why men with huge penises couldnt sit down? its not like its hard when you pee, or well doesent have to be.
and the toilet wont smell like urine that fast. and for drug addicts, why would they be at work?

What if my penis is so big, it doesn't fit when I sit down?

I don't really care how I take a piss...though growing tired of having to wipe the seat clean because retards can't seem to aim where they pee. I'l support anything that keeps my toilet clean.

Urine is sterile, you can't catch an infection from it.

Eh... you can get Hepatitis B from urine. Good luck with that infection.

Even though this is not really a serious proposal from them but more of a dumb PR gimmick, it still make it obvious why so few ppl vote on that party.
It is a playground for mostly young rebelious teens that have not yet grown up, wears t-shirts with a massmurderer like Che Guevara and have no clue about the history of communism and see a free market as a monstrosity.

The proposal is from the local branch of the party in some redneck part of Sweden and not the party itself. However the party itself on a national level is a joke, wouldn't surprise me if they came up with the idea either.

But if I sat down to piss my willie would end up in the water!
