I've been wanting to ask this question for quite some time

[Nighthawk]

my mom used to make me sit like that when I was little till I learned "control"

I aim to the bottom right or left corner and stand close to the urinal... I know it sounds wierd, but the closer you are the more " vertical" the shot which means you're less likely to get splashback.... think of it like pouring a guinness, the first part of the pour you dont want alot of aggitation right? so you tilt the glass and it "runs down the side"
probably could have used a better analogy but there you have it

KFP

Yeah, I think Budwiser would have the better analogy.

"Pee like a woman"?????

So weird to hear such a stereotype on a kilt board....I prefer to think of it as peeing like a human being...using common sense to keep garments clean and not buying into a porcelin back splatter device just because someone hung it on the wall.

If aging isn't your issue yet, it will be. Some of us olde guys NEED to sit while we wait for the process to proceed to completion...sometimes with nil force behind the stream near the end.

Not sure who determined that ONLY women could pee sitting, or why or when. Know there are websites devoted to teaching women to pee standing up...fair is fair.

If active duty military are wise enough to seat themselves to protect their uniform I'm not gonna feel one drop of testosterone less masculine if I choose to sit down to protect my kilt.

Really do hate sexual stereotypes...a lot...

Who does enjoy occasionally standing up to a urinal kilted just to give the other men in the room bar conversation for later...."I saw this guy in a kilt..."

Well said, Ron...
Do what you need to, for crying out loud.

Thank you, Ron.

I slide the sporran to the side, saddle up to the Urinal and go. Urine is Sterile, lernt that in chem class. Won't hurt you or your kilt like #2.

Well said Ron!

Besides which sitting down in a cubicle helps to preserve the "secret"!

[ForresterModern]

Ron, I am with you. Kilted or no, most of the time, especially when I get up for that post midnight walk to the porcelain that so many of us "men of experience" unfortunately experience, I don't even turn on the light---just amble up to the throne pull em down and sit----may as well rest while I wait for the all too painstakingly slow process to end. Never have to worry about spashes or aiming, unless the little soldier is at attention (ala' 40 Year Old Virgin scene).

[Beertigger]

The worst are those Armitage Shanks models which abound in the UK - who designed those things? They seem to be shaped to atomize and redirect everything....

[ardchoille]

One can also go into a stall and sit normally. If men have the right to wear kilts then we also have the right to relieve ourselves sitting down if we chose. Even if its only #1. I've paid a lot of money for my kilts...like to protect them from splatter.
