Melissa;
Now when I was growing up I was taught to close the lid after using the toilet. 'Course we had an "out-house" and it helped keep the smell down.
This habit has been hard to brake and I still do it to this day. This is
a habit that used to bug my wife, especially at night when she'd sit on
the lid! Hmmmm, I wonder if this is the reason she left me!

Welcome to the boards, Nolan! I've grown accustomed to putting the lid down when done using the bathroom because it makes the room look prettier. Your wife should be proud of you for putting the lid down- I wish all men were so well trained!

An automatic lid could be dangerous Willy, think about it!

Perhaps women should produce a toilet design that would eliminate much of the dangers of uped seats. The only reason the bowl is as big as it is must be for the poor male marksman. (Or the adventurous standing target practice afficionada female, presumed to be a rare bird)
A money maker (as many wives would be happy to purchase for their handy man hubbys) would be the attachment (like they have in some of the porta pottys) so men can stand and pee into the little urinal (custom heigh adjustment I am sure would be an option).
I have always thought that the seat issue made more sense if the seat is left up (for your protection, even if not completely sanitized). But now i see that the toilet is really designed for sitting. with the exception of those of us with the xxxxl buts, most people could use the extra room from a slightly smaller toilet in the smallest room in the house and the addition of a purpose specific attachment would save much cleaning and marital arguments.

First off, I agree that if a guy feels the need to use the ladies restroom, he should put the seat back down. But for at home or unisex toilets, ladies, just be glad that some guy remembered to raise the seat before doing his business. At a state rest stop (can't remember the state) all the men's room toilet seats were on springs. To lower them, you had to hold them down and sit on it to keep it down. Once you got up, so did the seat. A practical joking uncle got tired of his wife nagging him about lowering the seat and his arguing that most people look to see where they are sitting before they sit. So one day he wrapped the bowl in saran wrap. Had she looked before sitting, she would have seen then removed the saran wrap. Some inventor husband must have gotten tired of the argument and in the Harriet Carter catalog is a toilet night light. When the light is green, the seat is down. When the light is red, the seat is up. My ex-wife used to say my mom didn't train me right. Told her mom trained me well. I always lift the seat before doing my business. If a guy can take the time to lift the seat, then what's the big deal about lowering the seat. If you think about it, lowering is much easier than lifting.

I say leave it up all the time and the guys should just wipe the rim if they get some on it.

When I am at a woman's place I'll always put the seat back down becaus'e it's her place. Now when you're at my place, I'll thank you to put the seat BACK UP!
