Most trans people pee sitting down.

That is all.

I do if I'm taped, but often at home, I go standing up. Bladder seems to empty better.

Interesting... that certainly holds true for me, I have pretty much always pee'd while sitting down and as a bonus it keeps the toilet a little tidier too.

I used to stand up but lately that just began to feel odd so I sit.

Take the weight off your feet and relax for 5.  To my mind it's the only way to go.

I began to go pee sitting down before I really came out to myself (except when restroom conditions got really disgusting).

I suspect some trans men pee sitting down for a number of reasons.

while fewer t-guys get bottom surgery than t-girls, they do have things called Stand To Pee Devices (STP's). Although without that or bottom surgery, your kind of right.

Sitting is actually easier for me, so I've been doing it most my life.  And also, hormones have ... ummm ... caused some shrinkage  ::)  Yeah, sitting is just easier.

Wheeeeee  :D  Another tinkle topic LOL

In my observation, when I need to pee I go to the necessary facility and do so  8)  Oh, and I prefer to sit

I pee sitting down. The only time I do not, that I must and that basically there is never any way around it is when I'm on military time, and it's time to pass those urinalysis tests.

To help the whole nasty public toilet seat, I always scrub the seat down with loads of paper towels and soap, then using some hand sanitizer and one more paper towel, I wipe it down once more, then use a bunch of the seat covers. A clean seat always feels soooooo fresh, and nice and cool to the touch through the many covers I use.

yeah, from my experience and what I've heard a lot of trans dudes sit down, unless they've got an STP or have had bottom surgery. and even then, it's familiar and easier a lot of times.

I hate when people leave urine and sometimes fecal matter on the toilet seats. Complaints of a trans-woman Vol. 1

I usually pee sitting down but I'm getting a new STP that I plan to use in public because public toilets are gross...  I imagine I'll still sit down at home though.

The most insulting thing about "bathroom controversies" is that no matter how hard we fight, public restrooms are still disgusting.

Anybody tempted to get GRS then buy an STP anyway? Not sure how I feel about the idea.

Sounds like a great way to induce dysphoria in me.
That feeling of 'it' being back would give me really bad nightmares.

Well stick me in the sit to pee crowd always have since I was 5 or something unless of course the most I didn't was in my 20s getting drunk in a bar ya tend to use the urinals just to get back to the party kinda thing and ya the gross part. Had no idea I was trans for a long time either just sat anyway less messy.

Yes. I never minded standing to pee, and never hated my thing. I don't mind sitting either, but the flexibility might be useful.
