I can stand if I need to but I prefer to sit down on the toilot.

Do you sit or stand?

Seriously, it's such a weird question. Most blind men I know stand, same for sighted men.

Most blind people I know try to avoid public restrooms because there's no consistency, so you end up having to explore a bit to find stalls, then the sinks, then where in the hell are the soap dispencers, who hid the paper towels, stuff like that.

You can use a cane to check where the urinals are, if they are the wall mounted kind that stick out. The ones that are sunken into the floor, that is trickier because you generally don't want your cane in there. You can also use environmental cues (running water, sound of other men peeing) to help orient where things are. An O&M instructor can also teach you where the urinals and toilet stalls are.

In terms of toilet stalls, you can also use the cane to locate the toilet itself. Sitting down isn't particularly difficult, parents usually teach that part.

Personally I find it more comfortable to use a stall with a toilet. I'll stand, but usually just prefer to use the toilet because I hate finding a urinal with my cane. They're usually soaked in piss and I don't want to get my cane in there. Of course, sometimes the stalls aren't much better.

It's totally up to the person, though. Whatever's comfortable for them.
