Find out What a German Court Said About How Men Pee
Read Time:45 Second
It’s OK for guys to keep doing what they’re doing, i.e. pee standing up, no sitting required. In some countries however, men can’t necessarily take that for granted.
A German court has ruled that a tenant who liked to pee standing up doesn’t owe his landlord money for damages apparently caused by missing his target. The Duesseldorf administrative court rejected the landlord’s claim of $2,200 for damage to the bathroom’s marble floor, the dpa news agency reports.
While accepting expert testimony that urine had damaged the marble, Judge Stefan Hank ruled the man’s method was within cultural norms, saying that “despite the increasing domestication of men in this context, urinating standing up is still common practice.”
The Guardian provides some context: “The debate about whether men should stand or sit when urinating is no laughing matter in Germany, where some toilets have red traffic-style signs forbidding the standing position.”

I understand the part of the ruing about it’s OK to pee standing up. I do not understand about it meaning he is not responsible for damages. The two are separate issues.
