LOL. No quite. My daughter will be, err, pissed off?
You know, the whole "toilet seat up" thing is, in my opinion, one of those common assumptions that breaks down under scrutiny.
For example, lots of people say, "No two snowflakes are ever alike." But when you think about it, how can anyone possibly claim that? Who is up there examining every single snowflake and comparing it to every other snowflake that ever fell? I'll bet a lot of snowflakes are exactly alike!
Similarly, lots of people say, "Einstein only used 10% of his brain." But, again, when you think about it, how can anyone possibly know that? Einstein is dead! How can anyone possibly know how much of his brain he did or didn't use? For all anyone knows, he used 100% of it!
So it goes with the "toilet seat up" phenomenon: Since when did God decree that toilet seats must remain down, and women ought to complain to men about leaving it up, and men must learn to leave the seat down, and must apologize when they leave it up? Why shouldn't toilet seats be expected to remain up, and men ought to complain to women about leaving it down, and women must learn to leave the seat up, and must apologize when they leave it down?
Shades....the answer to your question is very simple. Women are ALWAYS right. ;)
Edited to add....married in the SLC temple 20 years ago today...and hubby still puts up with me! LOL
