Urinals, I don't mind them. Just remember, the unspoken guy rule is, if there is only a urinal next to someone open use the stalls. This is universal, there is more on the issue if you google it. No straight guy wants to be standing next to other dudes while pissing I mean wtf.

Funny story. There was this flaming homo in highschool that used to stand around the urinals and secretly jackoff at other guys taking pisses. Needless to say he got his ass kicked(not by me or anything).

Regularly.

Not to mention the toilets in which the last user has crapped and not flushed properly, or the ones which they've tried to flush sanitary protection down and blocked.

That's an added phenomenon I've found in women's bathrooms. Not only piss on the seat, but blood smeared all over the bowl.

When I have used urinals, it has taken ten or fifteen minutes (provided I don't give up) each time. At this point, I never use them; I'm better off looking for another washroom, however distant it may be.

I don't like public restrooms, so for the most part I try not to use them. If I have to use them, I will, but then I don't care if it's a urinal or a toilet as long as it looks somewhat clean.

I feel exactly the same way :-/

I don't like public restrooms in general at all. I hate touching cold metal first of all, let alone when it has been touched by hundreds of people before me, and every sink at my school's bathrooms are always shooting out freezing cold water, so it makes it difficult to wash my hands afterwards.

I also feel rather awkward when someone is standing besides me. However, I have learned to get around by something called "Urinal Etiquette".

This etiquette is based on the following principles: the bathroom is a place to relieve your physiological needs and nothing more, nobody cares about someone else's business and neither should you, so shut the f**k up and take a piss.

These rules will get you around every single bathroom situation: only look forward and never at other people's dicks, never utter a single word even when spoken to, and leave the bathroom as fast as you entered it.

I have a major fear of public restrooms, most of them are so disgusting. During my traviles I have seen a person getting robbed in one once, and twice I have walked in on people having sex in public restroom.
I have peed in peoples front yards before just to avoid a restroom. At bike races they usually have port-a-potties, talk about gross, I usually find a secluded tree or area to pee.
I once had a boss that patted me on the shoulder while I was at the urinal, caused me to pee all over myself. Luckily he bought me a new pare of pants to wear. (Probably to much info)

Oh god, I see where you fear of restrooms comes from.

And I don't think this was too much info. Anyone would have freaked out this hard, you know.

I've had the same experience. I was teased for standing too close to the urinal. I didn't know that there was a minimum amount of space you could have between yourself and the urinal. If this is so, we should have been told this. This is pretty stupid in my opinion. We should have had assemblies or lectures about the distance at which you are supposed to stand from a urinal. I have no idea how people instinctively know this. Its like people have to figure out new ways to make fun of people. So they come up with something as inane as the distance at which you stand from a urinal while peeing. I don't get why people care about how I use a urinal. I should have the right to stand however close to a urinal I want to without being persecuted.

Do you watch 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'? Larry David pees sitting down.

I've sometimes wanted to try using a urinal as a female (one of the ones that goes all the way down to the floor).

Sometimes the women can be pretty bad about the whole sitting on a toilet thing - Fine if you don't want to sit on the seat (but the reality is that unless you have a big gaping butt wound, you aren't going to pick up anything from a toilet seat. The danger lies in poorly designed taps, and door knobs caked in feces, urine and germs), but clean UP after yourself. How inconsiderate it is to leave urine (and worse) on the seat, urine on the floor and walls (I have NO idea how that happened but there it was), wadded up paper in the sinks, and expect - I suppose - someone else to clean up your filth!

I have a co-worker who defends these inconsiderate people saying that they are old, they can't see, etc. Okay, if you are THAT bad, maybe you should consider a helper who cleans up after you? It is really the case that people just think someone else is going to do the dirty work...

If I didn't have to use the public toilets, I certainly wouldn't. I do out of sheer necessity. I don't envy men who use urinals whatsoever either, I think my bladder would burst before I could do my business out in the open like that...

That is something else I have NEVER understood about women...why do they always see the need to go to the restroom in pairs? Is there some kind of Girly-Toilet Cult planning world domination and using "having to go" as code for the exchange of information between cells? Are they researching Things Man was Not Meant to Know but Women Were Meant to Know?

A little enlightenment from the ladies, por favor (assuming such enlightenment would not betray any Girly-Toilet Cult secrets, of course).

Oh, yeah...forgot to answer the original question *palm to forehead*

I prefer the stall myself, but urinals don't particularly severe problems other than to make me a little more um....shall we say......"self-conscious"

I haven't the slightest notion. If I go the bathroom, it's because I want to use the bathroom and then leave as quickly as possible. I don't want some other woman to follow me in and try to strike up a conversation with me. Worst of all are the ones who you can't even escape by going in the stall itself, and stand there shouting over the door while you're trying to do what's necessary. That's just disgusting.

I assume that women must talk in bathrooms because they do indeed want to have 'girly' conversations somewhere the men can't go. Which hardly matters to me, because I don't have girly conversations. There's nothing I'd want to say in front of another woman that I wouldn't want to say in front of a man - if she wants to talk to me, she can damn well wait until I've finished in the bathroom and we're back in a suitable area for talking.

I always use the disabled toilet at work, which is toilet, basin, etc in a room of their own. In addition, it's a unisex bathroom, which suits me when I don't really consider myself to be one or the other.
