I did not say that "all men" who urinate standing up are disgusting, just that men who insist on urinating standing up even though they are making a mess are disgusting, and they are unless they clean up after themselves. Some people are fortunate enough to be able to aim and not make a mess. Those who aren't should sit down or clean up after themselves, that's all. After all, we women all gift-wrap our sanitary napkins, with an inordinate amount of toilet paper, don't we (don't forget the topic of this discussion was stereotypes), so why don't you guys get even with us and waste just as much toilet paper wiping after yourselves instead of looking in amazement at the drops of ... jumping from the toilet onto the seat.
