Urinal Etiquette is getting serious

:  
Urinal Etiquette is the unwritten laws of the men's bathroom which dictate which urinal you should use.

Not only should you stay as far away as possible from other people using one, but you should try to anticipate the scenario if someone else should arrive.

It's fairly simple stuff, but Western guys love to talk about it like a todays-Jerry Seinfeld, commenting on how dudes from other countries don't understand the etiquette. It's one of those things that Western men do that make us look even more anal and anxious than we already are.


Still, I'm down with giving space.



And with good reason, now. A man got punched in New Zealand for ignoring the etiquette.

The article doesn't say anything about the exact details, but was the puncher still peeing when he did it? To get punched in the face AND peed on would be an extremely bad day.

Also, did he wash his hands after?

Hi Cib,

I've never got the whole bathroom paranoia thing, whats the worst that can happen, a stranger sees your penis....it always sounded like an extension of homophobia to me...not really cause for revolution in my book.

I guess it comes down to attitude about the human body, its parts and its natural functions.

I do admit though that being peed on would be annoying, but still not worthy of combat unless it's intentional of course.

Hey there,

My observation on urinal etiquette is that we men love to go to the corners - so I would build an intricate maze urinal rather than go just around the edge of an area that way you get more corners!!

When you have a spare minute please check out my youtube blogs
