    Default Peace between the sexes finally in sight!

    Thanks to a 9 year-old boy!

    "Jake Wulf wants to keep the lid on it. The 9-year-old boy flushed out a plan for a foot-activated toilet seat lifter that is called the "Privy Prop," designed to lower and raise the toilet seat."

    I love it.

    Loooove it! My bf and I have lived together over a year, and for some reason I've never gotten onto him about leaving the seat up (he ALWAYS does). I had an issue with it with other boyfriends, but it just doesn't seem worth it bc I nag about lots of other stuff. It's kind of strange, but I bitch about enough! lol

    Very cool.

    Though still annoyed that guys get yelled at because some women just can't check to see if its up or down before taking the plunge.
    Guy #1: I'd totally hit that.
    Guy #2: Dude, I'd hit that so hard whoever could pull me out would become the King of England.

    Is that why girls don't like it? I just don't like it cuz I don't wanna see the underside of the toilet lid. It seems dirty and exposed.

    Although drunk, I've sat on the rim. Ew.

    Well think about what's gonna happen if these become the norm in homes? Some guy is gonna come home, drunk off his ass, see the foot-lever-open trash can, think it's the toilet, and let it leak.

    Other than that scenario, I like it. I do hate seeing the underside of the toilet lid, tho

    Just pee sitting down, problem solved.

    I don't think I have ever peed standing up at home. I rather sit and relax.

    The majority of arguments by ladies I've heard have been that they fall into the toilet. Seems like they need to just pay attention from my point of view. It should be a courtesy to the other to leave the seat to their liking (guy or girl), not a demand that will cause a hissy fit if its left in an undesirable position.

    Personally we leave our seats and covers down at all times, not for each other, but because we don't want our pets to drink out of the toilet.

    THANK you.

    But barring that, lil' Jake's invention may just change the world . . .

    It's not just the surprise you get when you plunk your butt into cold toilet water at four in the morning. It also just looks nasty. Fortunately K agrees with me and always puts the seat and lid down, so I don't have to look at the underside of the toilet seat every time I walk past the bathroom. It has a lid for a reason, guys.

    You missed the point. Lowering the lid on the toilet is like closing cabinets or drawers after using them. A lifted toilet lid looks untidy, and leaving the lid up when flushing sprays germs all over the bathroom (you know, where you keep your toothbrush?).


    Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!

    I didn't miss any point, I don't really care if its left up or down. The only reason I actually watch it at my house is because my cats will attempt to take a drink.

    "It requires almost no effort on your part, it looks nicer, and it makes me happy."

    Couldn't argue very well with that logic. I've lowered it ever since, no matter where I am.

    That's what I've been telling my husband. He kept calling me a "neat freak" and a "germophobe" (sp) until we watched something on tv that said the same thing as what I had been telling him for years. It might have been Dr. Oz telling everyone to move their toothbrushes out of the bathroom because every time you flush..ew. Putting the seat/lid down doesn't stop all the germs but it helps.

    I enjoyed the article. Thanks for posting it. I especially liked the ending. "Because Mom said." haha

    What do people fight over in countries where they use squatting toilets instead of western-style seated ones?

    FYI penn and teller and myth busters did shows on the toilet bowl flushing and toothbrush idea

    I think the Japanese have been making toilets like this for awhile now.
