Virgo1982 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 well not necessarily pj's, just some comfortable clothing so they arent all dressed up and stuff How do you feel about long distance relationships?
ManWithQuestions Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 How do you feel about long distance relationships? haha ill have to get back to you on that one
Adamagnet Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 No but he could at least put the toilet seat down again for me. When I go to sit down I almost fall in because I don't realize he hasnt put it down. Is there some sort of aversion women have to actually using one of their primary senses to detect this ethereal lid? Either way it sounds like you are a candidate for the saran wrap treatment! I am begenning to suspect that all this posturing over the throne is part of the male:female dominance behavior, because it is an equally mild inconvenience for both sides. Out of curisoty, what percentage of your household was female in your developmental years?
Crestfallen_KH Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 EWWW! I always put the toilet seat and LID down before I flush. When you flush, the toilet "sprays" a light mist into the air that settles on to everything in your bathroom. And, what does one usually KEEP in a bathroom? The toothbrush. That's right. A scientist discovered this in 1975, I believe, and since I heard about it, I put the toilet lid down no matter where I'm at. Sorry lazy guys and girls, that ends the argument right there. Toilet seat and lid down, every time.
Trialbyfire Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 If both lid and seat are down, aren't you containing the mist so it settles completely onto the toilet seat? Now I need to lysol the toilet seat previous to use!
Crestfallen_KH Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Well, a toilet seat isn't the most conducive environment to keeping bacteria alive. Not when compared to a (usually wet or moist) toothbrush. I'd rather have bacteria on my skin, where it can't do me any harm, than in my mouth.
Trialbyfire Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 How much distance was between the toothbrush and the toilet, during the experiment?
Crestfallen_KH Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 I guess the size of the bathroom really didn't matter much. He used gauze pads and put them at various distances and for different lengths of time. Apparently the aerosol stays in the bathroom, contaminating everything in it for up to TWO HOURS after the initial flush. Not sure if I can post links, but here's just one of the links I found dealing with this. http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/exchange/node/1839

Mythbusters did an experiment about this and, if memory serves, they confirmed it.
Trialbyfire Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 I'm teasing Crestfallen, hence the smiley. I don't doubt you're right.
Blue Strawberry Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Yeah, the toilet seat should go down everytime because as Art said, it looks nicer and that is how it is meant to look. I go as far as closing the lid after I flush because I read that a bunch of germs get catapulted around your bathroom everytime you flush the toilet with the lid on, so there are waste germs all over your bathroom, so the best solution is shutting the lid. It looks like a bathroom of a college frat house if the lid is up, time to grow up and put it down, guys. I grew up in a house of three women, one man, and never an issue with the toilet seat. So I just associate men who leave it up as not "grown up." A lot of guys actually sit for that anyway so it is not an issue.
imbewildered Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Another thing I can't stand are women who bash men like it is nothing but when a man even makes a joke she is quick cry sexism and call him a misogynist. I work with a woman like this. Awww, Woggle - she is only an itty bitty feminista. WHo cares what she (or her sisters ) think or say. If you expect women to speak from rationale or consistency you are gonna by mighty disappointed. Women say all kind of things which they absorb from their environment. It all means nothing of value. Words just fall out of their mouth. Just static. Don't waste your fine male debating skills on them . I just smirk and roll my eyes .
The Collector Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Women that aren't sympathetic or supportive when we get ill. Men are not allowed to be sick, we are always hit with the accusation that we are malingering, or unable to cope with aches and pains that (super)woman would shrug off. Hey, women go through childbirth you know! Well, most decent men do their best to comfort their woman in such times of discomfort and agony. Men are humans. We feel poorly sometimes. The only reason so many women find this difficult to deal with is their own hang-ups about having a perfect daddy-figure their to comfort THEM through their troubles, and get anxious and narkty when the human male partner is the one in need of a little TLC. When the shoes on the other foot, even for a day or two, they whine and reel out the cliches about men not being able to handle a little sniffle. Listen, men have to live up to a lot of pressure to reassue you little girls we will take care of you and keep you safe,and we mostly do it froma good place. But occasionally we suffer ill-health, so cut us some slack and dish out some of that nursey goodness with a smile on your face and keep your snarky comments to yourself.
vonerik012 Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Why do women always flirt and hit on me when I am with a girlfriend? Why do women often times THROW themselves at married men? I went out with a married friend of mine, and he was telling this woman how much he loves his wife. Within 5 minutes she is telling him how it would be nice to just have a lover, marriage isn't that great, and literally asking him to go home with her.
