I don’t mind urinals. It just sucks when you have to double or triple up on them. Sharing with someone else just isn’t fun
Well…I have paruresis and it was a struggle when I used to go to nightclubs and use the urinals, for some reason there was always only one toilet and a bunch of urinals, so I had to get drunk fast to be able to use the urinals like a normal guy. Most of the time the bathroom door didn’t have a lock, so I’m glad I never had to do number 2 there.
Is there a rule that men can’t go into a stall and pee?
I’m a stealth trans man and use a stall. No one gives a shit. I’ve had “I have a medical condition and need a stall” prepped for years, but never has anyone even gave me a passing glance. It’s annoying to wait when I’m about to piss myself and someone is camping in the lone stall, but the only real rule of the men’s bathroom is “don’t acknowledge anyone’s presence.”
No, maybe, I don’t know, if there is it’s unspoken and unenforced because I’ve been doing it for years and no one ever complained to me.
Some people think they’re saving a bunch of time by using a urinal over a toilet but honestly it’s 5-6 seconds at most if you use it the same as you would a urinal, no sitting down, no pulling your pants all the way down, etc.
Blasphemy!
By the order of men I hereby banish you to the women toilets.
This hits me deep. I will often walk into a bathroom and walk right out if I see too many people. I’ll either find a quieter bathroom or just hold it because it’s physically impossible for me to pee if I can sense anybody within close proximity. Sadly, that applies to stalls too.
Too real, too real.
Yes this is way to real.
The movie ‘Waiting’ has a character whose entire arc is them trying to get over urinal anxiety while working one crazy shift at an Applebee’s clone.
Early Ryan Reynolds. Some of the humor hasn’t aged well, but it shines a light on the service industry for those that haven’t worked in a kitchen/bar/restaurant.
Why is this post full of people who are seemingly overtly defensive over the idea of urinals? Did I miss something? The comic is a joke. Every other poster here trying to make sure everyone knows they can and will always use a urinal. An ode of fragile masculinity.
Did I miss something?
Sounds like you missed the toilet OOOOOHHHHH
It has nothing to do with fragile masculinity, and everything to do with the dysfunctional personalities of Lemmy users.
No disagreeing with the title or you have fragile masculinity!
If you don’t like urinals, don’t use them. If you say something shouldn’t exist when many people prefer to use it over the other options, expect pushback, even if it’s in a humorous context.
The comic feels like a joke here but the title feels like there’s some serious sentiment behind it, even if it doesn’t have any real intent to actually ban urinals.
Legend has it that alpha males stand in front of each other when they pee, looking straight into each other’s eyes and sometimes arm wrestling with their free hand.
That’s pretty thoughtful to put drink dispensers next to portapotty’s.
I need both hands to control my alpha male fire hose. The girth of my manly urethra is enough to fit an average penis. I can empty my bladder in 3 seconds, but it is an intense 3 seconds. You’ll be damned sure I’m staring you straight in the eye from across our opposed urinals as I do. And I expect a small kiss, out of respect, before I leave.
I’ve definitely stood next to guys who pee in about 3 seconds, sounding like a gosh darned race horse, while I’m stuck there for 3 minutes. Gosh darn it!
Just don’t shake it more than twice while its in your hand and the police needn’t be involved
No matter how many times you shake it, the last drop will still end in your pants
Tust du schütteln oder stoßen - der letzte Tropfen geht in’d Hosen. Ancient German proverb.
Press up on your taint. Helps much!
Are you not into taints!?
No not in to your taint, on your taint.
My trick for dealing with “blushing bladder” is a Palovian response on myself. I realized I had certain pee triggers. Long story short, there are certain places and situations that cause me to need to urinate. So I figured why not use a word as a trigger? While at home I began saying the trigger word just as I felt the flow begin. Every time I pee, I say the word. My blushing bladder went away. Some of the music venues i frequent have urinals literally elbow to elbow so it’s awkward but there’s no trouble when I say the trigger word. The only problem now is people look at me weird when I’m looking at my dick saying “shazam”.
I do the same type of thing, but I just swish saliva around in my mouth. For some reason that gets my mind off it and next thing I know, I’m peeing.
Well. This comic certainly isn’t making it easier.
The only evidence of the “grand gay conspiracy” people keep talking about is the existence of bath-tub (multi-user) urinals.
Yea nah, that is not a sexy situation.
I would have thought trough over tub… but i guess that depends entirely on the type of multi-user you’re going for…
I’ve never used a urinal. it’s weird and also some of them are disgusting, they almost guarantee splashback
edit: are, not ate
“Nice watch”
Whoever drew this, had never gone to an urinal in his life
Oh my god, they’ve died???
