Public Urinals.

hemingway12 · 06-08-2008

I went to a movie tonight and afterwards I was busting to take a piss (large coke which I drank too fast, but I didn't want to miss the movie)
so as soon s the movie finished I rushed to the toilet. There was 4 cubicles and one large L shaped urinal that was probably 3 meters in length on each side. There was enough room for 4 guys to comfortably take a piss next to each other on each side. There was already 3 guys on each side of the L shape so I took the last corner and began relieving myself. At the time there was enough space for at least 3 more guys at the urinal. Then two guys came into the bathroom and just stood there. All the cubicles were taken so I assumed they needed to do more than piss, then I shook my dick and walked over to wash my hands.

Just as I turned the tap on I glaced in the mirror and one of the guys had taken my place at the urinal. there was clearly already room enough for both of them so why wait? I mean was it really such big deal to stand next to someone to take a piss? Everyone in the room had a penis, and It's something we do everyday so why was it so hard to stand next to someone and piss?

The question I'm asking is, is anyone really that self conscious when using public toilets?

Yes. Our society in some ways has gotten so homophobic that to make absolutely certain I'm not giving the impression that I'm interested in your cock, I'll do everything I can to make sure I don't even put myself in a position where I might see it and you might get the impression I'm interested in, let's say, having gay sex with you...

I'll see guys staring at blank walls, just a few inches in front of their face, to avoid at all costs even looking down, where it might be suspected they're actually glancing at the other guys' cocks to their left and right.

That's urinal etiquette

Never heard of it before?

It's funny, don't think to much about it. I can't stand next to a person sometimes because I'm a bit peeshy .

It's just general bathroom etiquette. You'll sometimes have people who are self-conscious that will react very badly to that kind of behaviour.

Not everybody thinks just like you do.

Is this a thread were only people how are 80% straight and 20% gay answer? Looks like it :p

Hey I wasn't expecting the guy to stand right next to me or any of the others, but there was enough space for the guy to be able to piss comfortably

that must have been a very old men's room! I haven't seen a trough urinal since the 1960s at Los Angeles Coliseum. In those days guys weren't hyper-modest.

in Austalia they are probably the most common urinals

I can't help it - at work urinals I just can't piss there, so I have to go to cubicles. At places I'm not familiar with (clubs, away from home, etc.) i can juse whap it out and let it go. Dunno why - either a combination of shy bladder or something!

ahh ok. well maybe these guys only felt comfortable doing it near people they know, and not strangers?

drrionelli · 06-08-2008

I'm with you, hemingway12. I don't get it at all. As you say, we're in the men's room to relieve ourselves, after all. And, so what if we happen to notice what the other guys are packing? I mean, hey, it's just a penis. We've all seen those! This is something that I've noticed in some of the popular clubs, even. Guys wear jeans and slacks that are so tight that they draw attention as to what's in there, but they act as if they don't want anybody to see. It's not as though anybody's
cruising...we're simply there to take a leak.

But, then again, given the nature of our being on this site, perhaps we should simply consider that we who are "of size" might be somewhat intimidating to our lesser smiled-upon brethren!

MalakingTiti · 06-08-2008

I would have done the same thing. I don't like the idea of participating in a public cock show with guys I've never met (or guys I have met for that matter). But, with that said, it's not about me so much as it's about there being a surplus of weirdos slinking around. My dick is my business and I show it to whom I wish.

mplsingleguy · 06-08-2008

i've found it funny that it seems like all the 'cool' and popular dance clubs have troughs to piss in- or some other sort of unusual fixturing or mod decor for the bathroom- and usually no dividers to spoil the "fun"

maybe they think that a few beers will reduce the shyness

I always just 'go with the flow' LOL

Back in the old Cleveland Indians stadium they had what I called "pissing troughs" too. Very common for that time. I remember one time I was taking a multivitamin that made my pee look "dayglow yellow" colored! (So bright yellow it almost seemed to glow!) So, here I was, pissing into a trough with maybe 12 other guys, but my stream looked horribly different than anyone elses!! I was extremely embarrassed!!! Not because I was pissing with so many other guys, but because of how abnormal my pee looked!

Im a commercial trucker sooo...im accustomed to the open urinals at the rest areas,truck stops..etc..the only thing thats ever tripped my trigger was a few years ago when an old guy peered over at my unit and exclaimed....DAMNED!ID SURE LOVE TO HOLD THAT FOR A WHILE!
