A Strange Observation

[Jeffage]

I was going to the bathroom at work today when I noticed something strange. Our bathroom has one urinal and two stalls. I was going to take a piss, but the urinal was in use, so I used a stall and shut the door behind me. Why is it that men have no problem using a urinal, but shut the door behind them when pissing in a stall?

Discuss.

i don't shut the door behind me when i'm only pissing in a stall.

[Patrick del Poker Grande]

So the door's not swinging around and/or resting up against my ass. Also, a toilet is a lot more open than a urinal, which may leave some a bit more uncomfortable and by default looking for all the privacy they can get.

Irrational fear of anal rape?

[Ulysses]

I don't and think it's pretty weird when guys do this.

Edited to add: the exception to this rule is when the stall and door are built in such a manner that someone can't easily tell that someone is using the stall without pushing/opening the door.

It's just good etiquette to close the stall door. This way people know which one's are taken.

Also, I don't want people to see me pissing on the toilet seat because I'm too lazy to set it up. Ok just kidding I dont really do this but many do.

same here...even if it does tend to open and hit me in the back, id rather get in and out of the bathroom as fast as possible in almost any circumstance (missing the movie, people waiting for you, etc.)

i usually don't even close the stall door when i'm taking a deuce

me too, i leave the door open, especially at my in-laws.

I only shut it behind me when I'm in a very crowded bathroom (football game) where I don't want multiple people coming in and hurriedly throwing the door open into the small of my back. Everywhere else, people should really be able to see the top of my head over the stall dividers.

I thought stalls were pretty private. They'd have to get pretty far into the stall with you to get a peek, wouldn't they?

This is exactly why I always close the door. I've barged into many an occupied stall that had the door open.

I always go in the stall to piss unless the urinal has those privacy dividers on both sides of it.

I have a shy, shy bladder.

"you call that a penis boy?!"

[Slacker13]

I leave the door open when pissing in the stall. Usually penis in one hand, beer in the other.

[sthief09]

I don't close the door when I piss.

my penis isn't shy, just my bladder. my penis is quite outgoing. His nickname is "Tripod."

Careful with that. It can get you in trouble. Trust me.

I just push it closed a little, rarely latch it.

I refuse to piss at the urinals in the bathrooms at work.

Bastards dribble their piss all over the floor. There's literally a yellow stain on the floor by the end of the day. I walk into a stall, flip the lid up with my foot and don't close the door. I flush with my foot and then go wash my hands.

I work at a nice building in a corporate environment too, not like this is a gas station bathroom. [censored] nasty bastards.
