A Swedish political party is taking a stand against upright urination.

At a county council meeting Monday, the Left Party, or Vänsterpartiet, tabled a motion that would require office washrooms to be genderless with a sit-down-only requirement, reported the news agency Tidningarnas Telegrambyrå.

Feminists and socialists, two of Barry's prime groups.

,,,and communists and islamists.

They will have us on our knees eventually.

I live in KY. I pee off my porch, or anywhere else on my property I want to.

Reason number 9 that it’s great to be a man: The world is your urinal.

[golf lover]

Are we going to be like “Bears in the woods”?

[P.O.E.]

Any particular way I should puke? Like on the Swedish politicians’ shoes?

[C210N]

This is gonna piss-off many men.

Expect the next law to be: passing a law to require putting the seat down.

Expect the next law after that to force manufacturers to have built-in-unhinged seats.

[glennaro]

Curious to see how this would be enforced.

Perhaps a better way would be to assign a trained "holder" in each stall to ensure proper aim. Since it's Sweden, perhaps a generic name for these compliance officers could be "Erik the Holder".

Collectivist insanity that the Red Guard could've only dreamed about western liberals/progressives/statists have mastered.

For literally decades, feminists have been trying to stop men from peeing while standing. Whenever there is a feminist woman in some local government committee overseeing construction of new buildings, she will try to convince everyone to omit the urinals in the men’s rooms because they are “outdated” and do not “fit into modern times.” It’s nuts. There must be some deeply rooted envy at the heart of it.

But the most ridiculous part is the liberal, err, “men” who comply and always sit down to pee. There is a special word for these people in German: Sitzpinkler

Oh Cripe! Please don’t let Bloomberg find out about this.

[Little Ray]

Some real Swedish men need to arrange involuntary sex change operations for any “males” in this party...

[C210N]

... and the next law after that, make it illegal to enter a bathroom, and piss on the toilet, sink, walls, ceiling... and the other part of the law to appropriate taxmoney for the construction of a gazillion more prisons to house the new lawbreakers.

My dad used to say something about squating to pee. He was from Oklahoma not Sweden.

I live in Florida. I will piss where I want. As long as children or women aren’t in sight. Its my property. I will piss at will..

Look up “A Regiment of Women.”

[freedomlover]

I am convinced there is some remaining instinct in the human male that encourages taking an outside wiz. Perhaps something about marking territory.

But there is a distinct difference in going #1 into an interior porcelain container vs the distinct pleasure of letting it fly in the great outdoors.

Ladies, you would not understand.

My dad used to say something about squating to pee. He was from Oklahoma not Sweden.

The only time I squat to pee is if im doing #2. Or drunk...

"Expect the next law to be: passing a law to require putting the seat down. Expect the next law after that to force manufacturers to have built-in-unhinged seats."

So leave the seat down, stand up and pee all over it.

(That'll learn 'em!)

Phil Donahue will love this. He’s been squatting to pee for many years.
