Social problems confined to Males or to Females?

I recently inquired as to the protocol when I stayed in a hotel and my junk touched the water in the toilet bowl when I sat down. The consensus advice was not to stay at that hotel again.

However, it spawned a new question for ya'll: What are problems that are unique to men that women would never ever consider and what are problems unique to women that men would never ever consider?

    How about just where the toilet seat is. Guys need it up and girls need it down so why is it the guys job to make sure it's in the right spot. I wouldn't walk up to a toilet and assume the seat was in the right position and just let go. So why would a woman just sit without checking.

    The protocol should have been to call housekeeping and have them send a plumber with a plunger, since the toilet was obviously very full. "Not stay at that hotel again" seems to be an excessive reaction.

    On a related note, however, one problem that seems to be wholly unique to women:

    Flinging themselves butt-first at the toilet without looking whether the seat is up or down.

    It seems to cause no end of grief when a woman finds a raised toilet seat. In my experience, many reasons have been given for the grief, but the most common is "I have fallen in", implying that a seemingly large number of women just aim their butt at the toilet and hope for the best.

    I don't know what happens when the lid is also closed. Do they bounce off or just pee all over the place?

    And can you imagine if the same standard was applied to men? There you are, it's 2 AM and you've just come back from the bar... you're not quite in top form, shall we say and you really have to go, so you amble into the bathroom, and let fly a relaxing stream of the night's recycled-beer. Only oops, the lid is closed and you didn't look. In the morning you know you'll be hearing about that.

    But your girlfriend, can fall in the bowl because she didn't look, and that's still your fault.

    I'm still trying to grasp how your junk touching the water in the toilet bowl constitutes a social problem.

    As for the other question, well here's a biggie: toilet paper!! If the cubicle has none, it's generally not a huge deal for guys. For women on the other hand, a lack of TP is quite a problem, especially if it's that time of the month. The woman has to ask the person in the next stall for some. There's no getting around it. So you learn to always check that a stall has ample TP before locking that door... especially if you're too shy to ask for toilet paper. It is a huge deal when it happens to you. :P

    What about showing boobies? Men can show their boobies, even realy fat large manly boobs that probably need a bra, but women have to cover it up, unless on a nude beach of course.

    And what about erections? pregnancy?menstruation?

    What about elbowing the boobs? i am a woman and in tight spaces, like on a bus, train, or going through a crowd, i often get my boobs rubbed by the elbows of someone, but i don't care really, but it always seems like a big thing, like you didn't see my boobs, its okay.

    I feel like if your question was more specific, i could give you a better answer, but hope this made you think!

    Sometimes it can be very uncomfortable or painful for a woman to engage in intercourse, due to tilted cervix, contracted abdomen or other natural variations of the female reproduction system prior to menstruation.
