Search Results: made a mistake

Obviously it's common courtesy to put the toilet seat down when you are in the dwelling of or share a dwelling with a woman, as the female to male ratio increases even more so. Trust me I have gotten bonked before for not doing so.

The often cited reason I hear to do this is to prevent women from falling into the toilet, the seat being the thin white circle saving them from a catastrophe.

However, this explanation never made sense to me because it's such an obvious thing to avoid. Unless drunk there really is no excuse to diving your behind onto a toilet without looking first. On that, even at night your eyes have adjusted and a toilet outline is quite visible whether it's up or down, and I say this as someone who has Lasik surgery and thus suffers with night vision. Lastly in my experience it's easy to just touch whether the seat is up or down based on the cover because with a seat up it will have a noise from the seat and cover tapping against each other.

So really other than laziness, the actual issue in my view is that it isn't courteous to the women. This should suffice on my own in my opinion because unless it's a real issue the toilet dunks sound more like a scary story to warn inattentive men of their inactions.
I have to lift the seat up to only pee and obviously check for that so I don't piss on the seat, so I fail to see how this logic can't be applied in reverse.

As an experiment this year I've been leaving the toilet cover down as well as the seat to see if I got complaints and so far none have sufficed.

So girls how often does this toilet bowl bottom exchange with a lifted seat actually happen? In occurrences that it did was it from assuming and committing to the squat or a genuine mistake?

Everybody has made bad decisions in their life at some point they regret later. Some people are obviously worse than others. Sometimes we were just naive. Other times we were misguided. But often we were just being stupid and stubborn because we were fixated on an emotion or something else that made us act irrational.

I can own up to my mistakes and accept the consequences for better or worse. I said and did a lot of stupid things when I was younger. You can’t change the past but you can learn from it.

But from my observations I notice women are more likely to have to “learn the hard way” whether it’s dating the wrong kind of (abusive) men or supporting political causes that are based on emotion vs. facts/logic.

Not to say they don’t learn their lesson at some point. For example I talked a young woman who completely supported BLM but absolutely regretted after they publicly supported Hamas terrorists. I also spoke to another woman who once identified “as a man” when she was a teenager and early 20s. Now she’s in her late 20s she also completely regrets.

I bring up politics because supporting political causes just out of emotion has dire repercussions for society as a whole. This can be just as true for conservatives too. But overall I see people who blindly support leftist causes come to regret it later because they there is unforeseen consequences to radical policy.
