Do you wipe sitting down, or standing up?
Ayxrion:
DISCLAIMER: This is a very controversial subject, especially in 2017. Do you wipe sitting down, or wipe standing up? There are many pro's and cons towards each path, but I'll let YOU decide the pros and cons yourselves. I will provide some examples of sitters and standers below. Keep in mind this is an open-minded, non-biased (its actually very biased) debate. Please be formal and kind to everyones opinions.
STANDERS:Mike #1:
--- Quote ---Standing while wiping is the only way to go. One hand (my left) pulls my buttcheek to the side while the other cleans the affected area. It's flawless... I think if I wiped while sitting, I'd end up with poop all over my arm.

Manton:
--- Quote ---I'm a 23-year-old male who not only stands to wipe, but has never even contemplated any other form of wiping. I had no idea there was any other way until I went to college and people would see me stand-up over the top of the stall (I'm 6'4", the stall was roughly 5'10") and confused everyone. Apparently it's a New Jersey thing, as I did an impromptu dorm floor census (of both lovees), and everyone from Jersey wiped standing up.

Mike #2:
--- Quote ---One positive has come from standing to wipe. Early in our dating years, my wife walked in on me (as girlfriends tend to do, goddammit) whilst in mid-wipe. I'll never forget that face. It was a terrible moment for both of us, but one of the best moments of our relationship as far as I'm concerned. She has never once, in the eight years since, come anywhere close to the bathroom while I'm taking a stuff. Peaceful every single time.

SITTERS:Sam:
--- Quote ---I used to stand to wipe my ass. The thought of putting my hand down the toilet bowl revolted me. It wasn't until I went to college that it dawned on me that standing up did not allow me to get every last piece of poop on my cheeks. I always wondered why my ass would be itchy about an hour later. I don't know what the actual catalyst was, but once I started to stay sitting to wipe, I began to have a dryer ass and fewer stuff stains in the boxers. I have not looked back.

Shawn:
--- Quote ---So I used be a stander, it never occurred to me to sit while I wipe I was just easier to stand. However ,I say used to be a stander because I have since converted to sitting. A few years back I got a new job and at the company I worked for the gaps between the stall doors and walls was exceptionally wide, thus while standing to wipe I was basically showing dong for anyone walking by. I went to wiping sitting down. Now I am a sitter even when I am at home, I find I get better star fish coverage and it also helps with dingleberries. So there you have it the tale of a stander turned sitter.

Chris:
--- Quote ---I am 24 years old and, until today, had always wiped while standing. Then I had a nice leisurely post-lunch trip to the stuffter at work, stayed on the john to wipe, and it was one of the most eye-opening experiences of my lifetime.

FACTS:
* It's a 50/50 split of sitters and standers. (However, some studies to show a 60% sitter 40% stander)
* Some people do both!
