    Sorry, editing my comment because I can’t read apparently. Yes urine can splash out, but that doesn’t stop women from bringing their young sons into the bathroom to pee with them. Just clean up after yourself or before if there is an issue. I would hazard a guess that adult trans women would be more likely to clean up a droplet than a young child. Maybe we just use toilet seat covers if we want a barrier?

    Also the worst offender is usually the toilet itself for splash back when flushing, in my years of urination experience.

      I don’t get what you are trying to imply. I am aware that sitting down isn’t the only option to keep it cleaner for longer.

      I know toilets can splash water on the seet. Large droplets aren’t the concern here. It’s the small particles that get out and stick to the seat, walls and floor. You can’t see it, but it does stink up the place.

      As for kids, I sure af hope the women clean up after them too. My original commenr was not about whose the worst offender, it’s about being mindful and keeping the stalls clean.

        Idk what you’re on about really. My point was why would standing to urinate preclude someone’s ability to use a certain bathroom. Like I have worked a lot of retail in my past, having to clean bathrooms and such, and I don’t remember having to wash walls in the men’s bathroom any more frequently than the women’s because of piss particles. That seems like a made up concern, tbh.
