I whole heartedly agree with this but this isn't what the writer of that blog was saying.

A thing I don't like is the increased amount of racist rhetoric I'm hearing in the pub or on facebook and from my actual fucking sister who should know better but then she has been in an abusive marriage to a racist/sexist/homophobic prick for a year and a half so Stockholm syndrome and that. I'm way past the time in my life I thought taking random people to task on their views was remotely productive but to hear my sister spouting shite and sounding like a Britain First mouthpiece is pretty worrying.

A court in Germany has ruled in favour of a man's right to urinate while standing up after his landlord demanded money for damage to the bathroom floor.

The landlord, who was seeking €1,900 (£1400; $2,200), claimed the marble floor had been damaged by urine.

But the Duesseldorf judge ruled that the man's method was within cultural norms, saying "urinating standing up is still common practice".

There is some debate in Germany about whether men should sit or stand to pee.

Some toilets have red traffic-style signs forbidding the standing position - but those who choose to sit are often referred to as a "Sitzpinkler", implying it is not masculine behaviour.

Judge Stefan Hank agreed with an expert's report that uric acid had caused some damage to the bathroom's floor.

But concluding, he said men who insist on standing "must expect occasional rows with housemates, especially women" but cannot be held to account for collateral damage.

"Despite growing domestication of men in this matter, urinating while standing up is still common practice," he added

I would have thought something more like Ausführungpinkler
