(People of all sexes) standing up instead of sitting down

Post by Matt Morrison »

Typically you would expect people to sit down when they are at home watching football. Maybe jump up out of their seat at a moment of sudden excitement, but that's it.

However I find myself standing up quite a lot watching Liverpool when I am at home. Sometimes unexpectedly, sometimes quite deliberately. I enjoy it a lot. I did about 20 minutes in the middle of the match and 10 at the end.

What do you do standing up when most people would expect you to be sitting down?

Oddly - considering my contribution to the weeing standing up thread - I actually like to stand while I shit.

I stand up to read and to watch television normally. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-19910888

Although I'm sure we've all had some interesting sitting-down and standing-up experiences over the years, I feel that we may be in danger of overlooking the excitement that only becomes possible when adopting the squatting position.

I do a thing where I've just arrived home and I switch on the tv and instead of sitting down to watch it I stay standing up, but not only that, I also tend to have my body turned away from the tv but turn my head to watch it as if my body is ready to go do something else but my head has become enthralled by the tv. It's clearly madness to do so but I can happily stand there for about twenty minutes like this. It also tends to be shows like Countdown or Pointless that I do it with. I always feel weird standing up watching tv if everyone else in the room is sat down and other people standing up watching tv while I'm sitting down freaks me out.

Amazing Mark. You're bringing the heat in every thread. Now I just need to know how you stand up to piss when you have your vagina on.

I can't stand up for falling down.
Possibly the first contestant to accelerate with a mic clipped...

If I have a vagina on I'm usually lying down.

That turned me on so much that I wet myself a little. While sitting down.
