Time to take a stand against the urinal

[Valmy]

I prefer to pee sitting. 

So long as there are not too many men like you, that is fine.  The whole idea is to keep our stalls clear for those who need them the most.

I assumed that the article was satirical in intent when I read it 

It is probably only a few more years before I can once again socialise with Guardianistas without my BP being raised; though they may wonder why I so often roar with laughter

When I was in Italy (or was it Switzerland?  ) there were a lot of men's rooms with like this long stainless steel trough thing and you just whizzed into that.

Not unusual over here in some oldish clubs. It's easier to use when you're wasted, too.

The writer in question. About what you'd expect.

[Josquius]

I recall in Amsterdam they have urinals out on the streets. The world needs more of those

I hate the ubiquitous gay bar trough.

Gay bar in Columbia has a nice toilet with a locking door.

I prefer to pee sitting. 

I'm surprised.  I figured you'd a) be germphobic, and b) enjoy looking at your own wang.

When I first read this, I was wondering when did you go to South America.

Take a "stand" against the urinal? Yep, stand when using a urinal.   

[DontSayBanana]

I tend to stand not against the urinal, but a few inches away to avoid splashback.

And that's another reason why I don't like urinals: I'm not a fan of standing in puddles of piss.  I think I've mentioned this before.

Especially when my primary work shoes each have cracked soles.

I have my litter bearers hold me up to the correct height to use the restroom.

[The Brain]

If you have kitty litter why use a restroom?

I don't know the places I'you ve been to when in Italy, but I've never seen a trough in one of them. Urinals here are usually in stalls or separated one from the other by a small wooden panel.
I've seen the trough-like urinal in England and Ireland.
