Take the test and see what you got. - No cheating! Take the test before you read anything else. Women can take the test, too. Just answer based on what you imagine is appropriate urinal etiquette.
Discussion below:
[spoiler]I scored 4 out of 6, which is apparently enough for me to be accepted by society. The ones I missed were #s 5 and 6. I can clearly see why I missed #6- I failed to think outside the box and simply not select any of the urinals. I don’t quite understand why I missed #5. I picked urinal 1 because it would limit the amount of guys I had to stand next to, but apparently that wasn’t correct. Maybe I was supposed to have picked urinal 4 because definitely being trapped in the corner by a guy is worse than potentially being between two. But in that case urinals 3 and 4 should have been acceptable.
Good question. Had it been just one unused urinal the obvious answer is “use the sitting down area”, but in this I case think you could use either of them.
Yeah, I saw that over in the other thread, and popped right on up to the urinal to try it!
I was (dare I say it? yeah…) cocksure, absolutely certain that with my intuitive mind I would safely pass for a fella. Nope. Got an embarrassing 2 out of 6, with them suggesting that I probably was female. OUTED!
I call bullshit. If urinal 4 is the correct answer to #5, then either available urinal should be an acceptable answer to #6. In both cases you’re just forming a line of 3, and not “pairing off” with anyone.
2 to of 6. That means the test is incorrect 4 out of 6 times! I don’t know who made up this test but if he stood by me in a bathroom I wouldn’t be surprised if he started talking about his feelings.
I disagree with the answer to question 5. Stall 4 adds to the discomfiture of the guy in 5, since he’s now sandwiched. Stall 1 leaves the two of you no worse placed than the 5-6 pair.
5 out of 6. Totally disagree with the last one. If it’s so jam-packed that 4 of the 6 urinals are being used, then I’m guessing it’s busy enough that people are constantly coming into the restroom. (E.g. ballpark, major roadside rest area, truck stop, or tourist spot like Buc-ees.) You will get more unwanted attention being “that guy loitering near the urinal” than by just going up, finishing your business, and leaving. Moreover, how do you stop someone behind you from jumping in line?
All this assumes that all of the toilet stalls are already filled, of course.
I think it’s better to take an end urinal next to someone then a middle urinal next to someone. That logic means that you never want to be the first guy to pair up since you will then be in the middle of two which is a much worse situation.
The correct answer to 6 was to go piss in a stall but since there wasn’t a button for that I just picked the one closest to the door, assuming 1 is closest to the door. Hanging around in the bathroom when there is an open urinal is just awkward and unacceptable.
