Men, do you go to the urinal or stall?

Asked by nightwolf5 (2958points) February 26th, 2022

If you just need to pee in a public restroom? I generally always use the urinals. I feel they are easier, and cleaner to use. I know someone that doesn’t like using urinals and avoids them, to use a stall instead. Does it matter to you, or do you even have a preference? The person I mentioned complained last time, that the toilet stall was a mess last time we both used a restroom not long ago. The urinals would have been the cleaner option.
Thoughts on this?

If I only need to pee, I much prefer a urinal. I also think it’s cleaner and much simpler.

Yes, that’s how I see it. No need to worry about the stall door, lifting the toilet seat or aiming well. Urinals are all ready for us.

Whichever is closest and unoccupied.

Urinal, bearing in mind urinal etiquette

Poo in urinal.
Pee in stall.

I took my wife out to dinner yesterday. On the way out I decided to use the restroom. When I walked the men’s room I noticed there was no urinals. I thought that I walked into the wrong restroom.

You got that backwards @rebbel.

Is that a joke, or a description of my stance?

YA DON’T POOP IN THE URINAL!!

Whatever is empty. Which in most public restrooms, most of the time, is the urinal.

If the stall is empty and all the urinals in use, I stand in the stall.

true confessions: In some public restrooms there are stalls marked with a handicapped sumbol. I use them even though I am not handicapped. Unlike parking spaces.

My “handicap” is that I have to pee, and now that I’m comparatively decrepit, more often than not, I need urgently to pee. It’s fitting punishment for my former complaining about girls always running to the bathroom. If there is a God, he apparently knows how to get even.

I’m notoriously pee-shy. Not a urinal guy. I won’t say I never use one, but if there are other people in the bathroom, I won’t.

I have never understood the lack of privacy with urinals.

HP's avatar

I wouldn’t have a house constructed without one.

Dutchess_III's avatar

I would be grossed out it I walked into a private bathroom and saw a urinal!

HP's avatar

How about walking into a private bathroom with a pee drenched toilet seat.? Any house with boys or men needs urinals. One low to the floor for the kids, and another up higher for the adults. It’s also the smart solution to women on the warpath for us boys leaving the seat up. The minute a girl would rag me about leaving the seat up, i would instantly conclude there were no males in the house where she grew up.

No need for urinals (in homes), in my opinion.
Just take a seat.

No splashing the seat.
You’re comfy.
Better for the bladder.

Urinal unless it is a disgusting mess on the floor.
My brother has one installed in his house of 5 people (3 females, 2 males). Saves significant water as well.

Good, interesting, and humorous answers all. I don’t have the best aim, so I certainly wouldn’t mind a urinal in my home, which is rare to see, but I live in an apartment, so it’s certainly a no go.

elbanditoroso's avatar

“no go” @nightwolf5 – that can be a serious problem. Talk to a urologist.

nightwolf5's avatar

@elbanditoroso hehe yes funny, I know. But actually I do ‘go’ often enough.

SABOTEUR's avatar

Either.

When you gotta go. you gotta GO.

No time to be prudish.

KRD's avatar

I will go for a urinal so if someone has to get do the morning constitutional they don’t have to wait.
