im wondering if it is because unlike women,it doesnt come out of the different hole and probaby more in front of him....which sitting might still help. i dont understand the whole story about needing a diaper

I could see there being an issue if you stopped flow of urine in your actual penis but that is controlled by inner sphincter muscles in the bladder not your urethra.

Perhaps his penis is not the only underdeveloped part of his urinary tract. Maybe his bladder sphincters are also underdeveloped and can't hold back a full bladder.

don't get why men don't just sit anyway.

cleaning up piss is gross.

I'm a large but not huge guy... and if it's a "normal" (not "elongated") toilet bowl, I have to stuff my junk down there, trying to avoid touching the bowl where random others probably have; and then the splashback may be personally affecting me.

Tiny, low-flow toilets also don't save water when I have to use the plunger and flush four times.

valid concerns.

if your piss is thick enough that it requires a plunger for any toilet, you need to seek either a urologist or exorcist out.

Because it’s fun to piss standing up.

it's a luxury piss, and I'll be damned if I don't sit down and take my time while on the clock.
