The seat being up/down doesn't bother me. It's when there are pee stains on the rim/floor because someone "missed", that drives me batty
Be thankful you dont need to walk into the men's room in a crowded bar, especially one with a younger crowd. Depending on the place it can range from just 'piss everywhere' to 'a sea of pee' on the floor.
I know exactly what you're talking about. Some public men's restrooms have seriously blown me away with how disgusting they have been.

ummm...DIS-GUS-TING
I knew a guy that would NOT put the seat up, and would pee, seat down and all (he thought touching the toilet was gross)...ALL guys 'dribble' NO MATTER THE AIM...and how would you like to have to do a #2 and sit in pee?
Common courtesy: put the seat AND lid down. Men: lift the seat and lid-put both down when done Women: lift the lid-put the lid down when done. BOTH are doing the same amount of 'work'.
Putting the lid down also prevents items from falling into the toilet: cell phone, hairbrush, toothbrush... (you'd be amazed at the amount of cell phones that get dropped in the toilet)
As to cutting down on the amount of fecal bacteria being sprayed into the air, yes, putting the lid down does cut down on the spread, but since a toilet flushes at such a high rate of speed, particulate matter will still be sprayed out thru the gaps between the lid and seat.
Best solution: have the toilet in a separate 'closet' in the bathroom. (ewww...the people who have a phone in the bathroom next to the toilet :? )
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

DAMN YOU!
Now I am going to have to stop at the hardware store on the way home tonight and buy some lumber. Frame a separate closet inside my bathroom. I will tell my wife it is because someone on the 10c board told me it was the best solution to stop everything from being covered in shit.
This is my bathroom on Sunday. Did I mention I rent?
i've fallen into that abyss on more than one occasion..and living with a house full of male children, its sometimes not all that pristine when you take the dip
see, we girls sometimes get too busy and wait until the last possible second..and then we rush into the bathroom, struggling not to wet ourselves before we get there...no time for looking at the toilet seat.. its just back up and sit...fast!
cuz girls, you know this .. you can hold it forever but once you actually see the toilet..its all over
Brilliant

I suppose you could rig up a circular rail, and put in a shower curtain around the toilet....

It is not our fault you put yourself in a situation where you have no time to be cautious.

I never understood the I fell into the toilet excuse. Really? You don't check first? If we go to pee, should we just randomly shoot around the bathroom as we pass through the door and hope to hit the target? (errr. wait.. Nevermind).
I never got that. (just out of curiousity, do you check if a door is closed or open as you approach? Or do you just assume its open because you know where it is?)
I am the youngest of 5 sons (so 6 men, just my mom), we all learned to put the seat down because it's courtesy. So, we do it. But, I don't remember my mom saying - because I don't check the seat is down before I sit.
I also have 4 boys of my own (so 5 men, just my wife), and they learn - seat down. Though I will walk into their bathroom from time to time and see seat up (which I will use to my advantage for ease from time to time). But, downstairs, they put it down (and they never enter the master bathroom unless there's no choice) though my wife almost only uses the master bath.
Plus, now our toilets have seats that go down slowly. So, even if we need to duke it out, who wants to wait for the damn thing to take its time getting down?
Courtesy!!!! That's the reason. That's the only reason. It's not too difficult to think of other people. Especially those you are supposed to love... The rest is just gravy. Why do things have to have such difficult answers?
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
