Ok ladies how many times have you chastised your man over missing the toilet when he goes for a P?
Do you get frustrated that a man just cannot shoot or aim straight?
Do you go in afterwards and they have left the seat wet or hastily tried to wipe away the mess that they have caused?
Or is your husband/boyfriend excellent in that department and you never have cause to complain
And mums do you find your children missing the toilet or do you think that men are the worst culprits?
Or are you terribly discreet about it and just wipe up any mess that has been made after the men/boys have used the toilet?
And what excuses or what has your man or child replied when you have told them about weeing on the seat?
Go on have a rant and a rave you know you want to, we can take it, eh men!

My husband has always been very good and I've never had this problem. I do work in a nursery though where the oldest children are four and the boys there seem to manage to get it anywhere that isn't a toilet. Even with stickers for them to aim at they can't manage. I hope they get better as they get older.

I don't think there are but what a good idea for a new product. The childrens ones change colour maybe the mens ones could reveal naughty pictures or maybe a mini could become a porsche if you aim right.

Oh yes! That's one thing that men, all men be it young or old, just don't seem to get right 
I found a beautiful sign onone of my trips to UK that I would have loved above my loo at home bit here in Italy no-one would have appreciated it. It said 'We aim to please. Please aim too!'
Back to the question. I know that it falls on deaf ears and as I have this theory that we are doted with a certain amount of words that will run out once we've used them all I tend not to waste any of them - and thay would certainly be wasted on males over this isssue!

It is very upsetting when man doesn't know how to put toilet seat down.
I always ask man to clean the bathroom and provide the best cleaning solution.
How come, they don't think about cleaning the wall at the same time?....

LOL -- Luckily, my boyfriend is really good about this. He always lifts the seat and usually puts it back down afterward, most of the time.
Our roommate is usually pretty good about this as well, but he sometimes has a friend over who always seems to make a mess! It's really disgusting usually running down the toilet to the floor!! ugh

I must be one of the lucky ones, as my husband and 21yo son both have excellent aim - and always have had. I've never had a problem with anybody missing the receptacle - thank goodness. They have other annoying habits - for some reason they manage to leave globs of butter all over the kitchen counters AND on the floor whenever they make a slice of toast ... but I suppose it's marginally more pleasant to clean up than a pee puddle!

i am very fortunate that my hubby is pretty good in his aiming... i never have any problem with him so far... he missed once in a while but it is not often... and i get him to clean it up himself... my philosophy is, if you create the mess, you clean it after yourself... you don't expect other people including your wife to clean it for you... that way, he will be more careful in his aiming to make sure that he won't miss again... take care and have a nice day...

It's usually my 8 yr old son who misses the seat. I will tell him and suggest that he should put up the seat if he can't aim. I know a lot of women complain about a toilet seat being left up but personally, I would rather put the seat down myself than have to clean ot after someone else! My other half is worse though. He leaves number 2's all down the toilet and then tells me he didn't notice!
The worst thing is when a man or boy p's on the seat and says he didn't notice. I could understand a girl not noticing but men tend to be facing the seat so surely they can not possibly miss the fact that they have made a mess!

When men can't see exactly what is right in front of their eyes, it's a syndrome I believe so I hold my hands up on that one, not noticing is a poor excuse I do admit but I am not guilty of this, I am domesticated in that department, having my own home sure made me that way inclined, cleanliness is my middle name

I would have to ask you , what would you do if you had someone come into your home and do this or if you lived with someone who did this? I would ask them to clean it up lol because that is a good way to teach them , that someone has to go behind them and deal with it....and they need to take responsibilty....I am picky about a clean restroom...! Some might say that I am a tough bird......lol@wolfie34 (26771)

Take a stance otherwise they have carte blanche to do it not just in your toilet but in others! Assertiveness is always the key, be polite but let them know it is not acceptable! You may be a tough bird but you're a tough bird with a big heart cos you're a friend to Wolfie and makes him smile!

I just want to know why you can't/ wont /don't clean up when you make a mess. One of my most hated jobs was cleaning the outside of the bowl and the floor from where my partner missed. I would ask him to clean his toilet and he would not do it. Eeeeewwww! Disgusting!

Would you men like to clean up after us if we missed the bowl? I think not. Men may miss or drip. But they can also clean up after themselves if they do. There's no reason we women should have to do it for them. Something I'm frequently reminding my guy of.

Hey wolfie! That is very annoying you do know that don't you!
Is there a reason why men do this? Is there a reason why some
men just can't be neat about finding the circle in the middle
of the bowl? I have to say that my boyfriend/roomate is pretty
good! He seems to have a right on aim! And so that we don't
have the "leaving the seat up" problem we both put the seat
down completely! Some of it has to do with the fact that we
don't want the cat's to drink from the dirty disgusting toilet
bowl! He has decided that we should get some of that "nice
blue stuff" to put in there! So I really am kind of lucky that
I don't have this problem now, but I have in the past and it is
really disgusting! You men should be neater and more careful!

Hi ya wolfie34
Hahahaha I don't have this problem at all because I have taught my sons to sit down. The rules are that when they are at home or in anyone elses home they sit down, at school or in the public toilets they can stand. I wouldn't want them to feel different to other boys when they are at school so it is ok to do as the other boys do. I would be so embarrassed if we went to someone's house and they had missed so I get them to sit AND SHUT THE DOOR!! LOl

I think in all honesty some men do this as well (Wolfie winks!) I am no saint but you always knew that and I do this when I am around other people's homes that way there is no embarrassment and I will also spray afterwards too whatever I do! Welcome back my friend and glad to see you are still in fine fettle after your battle scars of the party LOL!

With my partner, that is not an issue, atleast, I never notice. In the past, I have lived with males who have gotten it all over the toilet, as if it was not so accidental.
