When I was about 8 and my sister was 7, my dad was playing The Sims. All of a sudden, his male character went into the bathroom and stood in front of the toilet. my sister asked "How come he's standing up?" and my dad said "sometimes men stand up when they go to the bathroom." we were both trying to figure out how men decided when to stand up and when to sit down, as if it was a preference.
