According to Dr Gerald Collins, lads should pee sitting down as it's more hygienic and better for bladder health.
The expert, from the Alexandra Hospital in Cheshire, made the claim following a YouGov report on male urination.
In a survey of more than 7,000 men from 13 countries, the stats, released on Friday, showed guys prefer to stand.
Interestingly, 25% of Aussies sit down to pee every time, while 27% "never" do.
The nation who had the highest number of men "always" sitting down was Germany which came in at 40%.
Meanwhile, blokes in Singapore had the least with only 5% opting to sit.
Now Dr Collins argues more men should adopt the technique, telling the Telegraph it's the "most efficient" way to pee.
The urologist explained sitting ensures pelvic muscles and the spine are completely relaxed, making it easier to go.
It's beneficial for older men to sit down to urinate, Dr Collins claimed.
Previous research supports Dr Collins claims with a 2014 report stating that sitting down to pee could be beneficial.

And even on Twitter, women claim more men should try sitting down as it helps with the issue of "horrific aim".
