Toilet habit that Brit blokes are among worst in world for revealed
GENTLEMEN, pees be upstanding — after research found British blokes don’t like to sit for a tinkle.
They are among the least likely in the world to take the weight off for a wazz with less than one in ten doing so — compared with four in ten Germans.
A YouGov survey looked at urination habits of men in 13 countries, ranking Brits the 11th least likely to sit every time — beaten by Mexico and Singapore.
Fifteen per cent of Brits said they sat most times whilst 33 per cent never do.
In Germany, standing to urinate is considered antisocial due to bad aim and stray drops — and many public loos have signs telling men to sit.
The country even has a word for those men — sitzpinklers.
Broadcaster Adrian Chiles, who has a urinal at home, said: “The Germans have clearly sat down and worked things out.
“Generally I’m seated as my aim has never been great.
“If your aim is true then by all means stand. But otherwise keep the splashing to a minimum.”
