Just like some people prefer pee pad trained vs litter box trained vs outside trained, it's a preference really. But when many other people have the same types of feelings towards leg lifting it makes me think most people see it in a negative light, especially when I've seen a few breeders (not on YT) price their boys differently because they are the problematic sex due to "leg lifting" issues. Maybe it's something that I just don't know about since Kaji is my very first pet? That's why I posted the question, I thought there was something new I would learn about boys and leg lifting that I didn't know before.

Not a problem. I was actually made to feel negatively about my dog by others, who I now know just weren't knowledgeable about it. But I see your point. It's not really a "bad" thing, really just an unfavorable habit. And i definitely agree that it shouldn't be something with a huge stigma attached. Personally, I'd rather all of my dogs leg lift than do other things, such as bite or act aggressively toward other dogs, strangers or children.
