Five seconds seems really slow to me unless I just don’t have much to give. Ten to fifteen seems more normal, unless I’ve been to an Oktoberfest, in which case I’ll just catch up with you guys tomorrow.

You mean seems very fast?

But I have soft data.

You should talk to your doctor about that. 
Ok, are you folks all just letting it flow, or pushing it out? I know that my bladder can hold an amazing amount, and if I just let gravity do the work, I could be halfway through the NYT crossword puzzle sitting there. But, I’m usually in a rush, and can get it all out in a few seconds.
So, what is the criteria for measuring?

I vote for relax and let it flow
Actually, making an effort doesn’t make much difference to me - I always go slow, and sitting is slower than standing.
But some of you guys upthread - you are artists

In Manworld, that should never happen with urinals. There is a very specific protocol for that.

Correct. In fact, it’s documented fact that only every other urinal in any men’s room is actually hooked up to the plumbing; the others are there just to provide adequate spacing.
Lately I piss a lot more frequently due to increased fluid intake, so my pisses are fast but low volume. Also, after my dad had a successful operation for his prostate cancer, his piss time was significantly reduced. I’m an only child so we piss together sometimes, especially if one of us has to take a dump afterwards and we dont want to wait for the crapper to finish. That probably seems very weird to everyone but me :o

I get up at least once or twice during the night to piss and I’d say it takes me about 60 seconds on average each time. Does this mean I might have prostate problems? Oh well, I guess I’m not too concerned, just curious. However, when I finally get up for the day (and I have to piss once again), I like to hold it until I actually get in the shower. It just feels good to pee in the shower, especially since it provides me with the opportunity to aim at various targets in there. If i can get a good strong pee stream going, sometimes I can knock over a bottle of shampoo or an empty beer bottle, but usually I can’t.

To paraphase Mr. Larry McMurtry, author of the classic novel Lonesome Dove …
“If there was a woman in this outfit around this time of the morning, she’d scream and poke her eyes out with a fork.”
I tolerate much in men, but I draw the line at spraying in the shower.
