Me too. You just unzip your pants fly, pull down your underwear waistband, and pee.
When I was a kid, nobody used the ‘fly’ in the underpants. (We didn’t call it that; we didn’t even know it had a name.) We were all ‘wtf is that for, and why would anybody use it to pee through?’ Our consensus was that it was an excuse to put an extra layer of fabric front and center to catch the occasional drip.
You’d have to pull both of those layers of fabric out of the way, one from each side, to pee through the opening - much easier to hook a thumb through the waistband and pull down.
I guess I’m an outlier. I use the fly on my pants (aka trousers), and then pull the waistband of the underwear down from there with my right thumb. The left hand is for directional control.
So, micturation is a two-handed job for me. No wonder I don’t do that thing where you use an outstretched arm pushed up against the wall to lean as I pee.
Whenever I do this, the elastic puts upward pressure on my penis, then when I release this pressure, the final 1/2 oz. of urine dribbles out. That’s why I use the fly, unless the fly is small and restrictive.
As the wise Callahan observed, “It is impossible for a man to piss properly with his unit bent in the shape of the letter Z.” When I was a kid, I used the fly on my tighty-whiteys, and had to use both hands to hold it open. I use one thumb to hold down the waistband of my colorful, manly briefs.
I believe that we should all take the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Index test, however one spells it.
There seems to be a correlation between being laid back and cool and going over the top, as opposed to being obsessive, controlling and highly agitated and going through the fly.
I am not concerned, Gentlemen, with how you manipulate Mr. Happy as long as you keep him away from me and mine.
If I wear boxers that have a “low overlap” fly, I might be inclined to just unzip and go through the pod bay doors. But I typically wear boxer-briefs, which have a “high overlap” brief-like fly. Snaking my, uh, trouser snake through that series of fabric baffles is no easy task. Mut maybe that’s just me
So in most circumstances, I’m on over-the-top guy. It’s honestly easier than threading my wang through that maze.
I have to wonder if men that pull down the waistband are wearing tighty whities. I’ve worn boxers for half of my life, and nothing is easier than using the fly.
Not using the fly of your underwear isn’t like not using the watch pocket of your pants to hold a pocket watch—it’s like not using the pockets of your pants, period. It’s fine with me if you don’t want to put anything in your pockets, but why on earth would you think it’s not normal for people to do so?
