I'm not advocating that women should necessarily have to put the seat up, just that there isn't really an argument for why guys should put it down outside of courtesy. 2 out of the 3 times it needs to be down is for women, so you'd think they wouldn't never have trouble not falling into the toilet.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
