Do you believe that males should leave the toilet seat down for females, or should females leave the toilet seat up for males?

I don't mind either way. It's just a bit nasty when I am wanting to go the loo in the middle of the night and I nearly fal in because the seat is up! :P I think majority rules - if there are more women in the house then its just polite to put it down again. If there are more men then the woman should put the seat up :P

I think men should put it down, like I would imagine most females do. Out of courtesy for the ones who have to sit LOL. We don't like having to touch it. The only way that I wouldn't mind is if the man is the one who is primarily cleaning it-then they claim the bathroom as theirs and do as they wish. But it is usually the girls who scrub the bathroom down-so we rule!!! Do what we say!!!

Males should put the toilet seat down for us, treat us like ladies hehe. I hate touching the toilet seat and I will say that my boyfriend might be a gentlemen...but not when it comes to putting the toilet seat down lol. It's not that big of a deal though, he could be doing worse things like peeing on the seat...EEWW!

i dont really mind whether the toilet seat is up or not. if i want it down, then i should bring it down when i wanna use, and if my bf wants it up, he should bring it up...i dont really go into such details LOL but it's a good point for many others, i guess

I think the toilet seat should be covered before flushing so as to reduce the bacteria that will goes into the air when flushing. THe next person who wants to use it can just lift the toilet seat before use.

Toilet seat down. Because when you sit on a toilet you sometimes don't look - like at night - so it's easier to have an accident. Men have to put the seat up, so they have to look and see first. Less chance of an accident. That's my theory, though.
