Guys who pull their pants all the way down at the urinal

Respectable of you.

I have 40 years less experience but also have never seen this happen.

Potty training toddlers being the exception.

See, I saw this coming... that's why I addressed it in the post ^. I don't know how else to explain it, somehow they get your attention. I think they want you to look. Once this happens to you, you'll get what I'm talking about.. maybe xD

You guy's need to visit urinals in Asian dominated area's.

Whoa. You have the best resume there that I have read all week.

I can think about butts... though, I'm not xD

You aren't supposed to flush the menstrual stuff. That's what the little box is for...

You just don't appreciate Scottish culture.

On rare occasions if I'm in a good mood I might even give three thumbs up and the other up their butthole.

Rate how slack it is with either one or two thumbs.

I'm the same way as you sometimes. I would wait for both urinals to be empty, or go in a stall. Sometimes when I'm that close to somebody else I get "bashful kidney" and can't release my urine, so then I stand there an unusually long time which makes me more uncomfortable because I think the other people must think I'm not really peeing, but just standing there to get a peek. It's weird because on the other hand I have stood at the edge of the woods on the nude beach in plain sight of everybody and taken a leak with no problem at all.

I find it hard not to make eye contact with people. Being a country boy, smiling at strangers is a natural reaction for me. So in public bathrooms I really do have to try to look at the floor or unnaturally avoid eye contact. Being in close proximity to someone makes me feel like I'm obliged to acknowledge them. So, I always like having the whole bank of urinals to myself so there's no pressure.

It's sort of an internal battle between seeming rude for not acknowledging someone and seeming rude for looking at a stranger in a compromising situation. It's one of those things I think a lot of people just put up with without questioning. If urinals had full dividers, none of this would matter. I know it's not a big deal, but in modern society, you'd think they'd have more of these little kinks worked out. It's the things people don't talk about out of shame or embarrassment that never get addressed properly.

As for the guys who look 'down' at the urinal, I like to think they're like me, just curious people. I know a lot of guys are WAY too hung up about penis size. It's like their entire selfworth rides on it. Which is, of course, extremely shallow and sad. But I have to admit, I wonder about what EVERYONE looks like naked. Of course, I resist humoring my curiosity. But I'm a curious and inquisitive person, so it's a challenge sometimes xD For me, as soon as something I don't know is made or revealed to me to be unavailable for me to find out, it then becomes something I need to know. It doesn't really make any sense, but I've been like this since I was like 4.

So, if you stood back, like you said, at the urinal, I wouldn't look cuz I'd be focussed on seeming as interested in the wall as possible, but I'd be fighting the urge to peak, and I've reconciled myself to that fact. It's like when I walked in on my friend Jen changing, she told me not to peak, which instinctively MADE me peak! As soon as it became something forbidden, it turned into a reactional thing. Maybe this makes zero sense to you, but maybe now you'll be, hopefully, less disturbed by the whole peaking behaviour. The funny thing is, the ones you usually catch peaking at you at the urinal are always the most macho looking dudes. It's probably, like you suggested, their insecurities coming out. If you were being serious about trying not to laugh when you catch people peaking, I totally relate there. As soon as that happens, I've gotta bite my lip, because I find it hysterical that anyone would be curious about what I've 'got' down there.
