Yes Niggle, men may well be taller on average than ladies, but in my experience they also have proportionately shorter, not to mention hairier, legs!
The whole issue of toilet seats in LOS though is opening one big can of worms, due to the fact that they are subject to constant damage on account of being squatted on.
Personally when in a hurry due to aforementioned bladder weaknesses I don't give a flying you know, providing there is immediate access to the pan. Its those men who put the WHOLE flippin lid down that really bug me, cos you sit on the lid in the dark and by then its too late to change your mind.
Regarding toilet seats ,what about those atrocious pale blue padded "pile cushions" they had in Crawfords (now O'Neills) a while back ?
As for ones without seats ????? Well TIT but why do we have to wait outside for 20 minutes whilst some sarong clad woman throws 400 buckets of water around the room and then ambles out and promptly dribbles betelnut juice all over the place whilst shoving her finger, to the fifth knuckle, up her nostril ?
I don't particularly care if the seat is up or down when entering the throne room.
What DOES pi55 me off is either
A) A soaking wet seat, where the previous lazy 5od could not be bothered to raise it prior to spraying the nether regions.
OR
B) Boot prints ON the seat where they have squatted ON the seat.
OR
C) Worse still - the combination of BOTH.
As for Betel Nut Juice - Don't get me started on THAT
In a previous life I worked on ships, and I remember a seat that had a counter balance arrangement on it that ensured that it was neither up or down. It stayed at an angle of about 45 degrees until you sat on it, and you did have to remember about it if you needed to sit down! They did not have a cover part, so that did not get in the way.
May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil know`s you`re dead!
