With all these women only threads, let's hear some men only stuff

[Jeff in BigD]

Shep, could you imagine the hell that would have been raised if a guy had to use the women's room?

 

[snoopy]

Blech, I can't imagine having to use a urinal. What I find compelling is from what I understand y'all actually talk to one another while standing there using the urinal. Wassup with that? We girls like going to the bathroom together so we can compare notes, or freshen our lipstick, but there is absolutely no talking when it comes down to taking care of business.

Another question for guys? Is there a mysterious appeal to the Three Stooges? Cuz' I don't get it, nor do any other females I know.

At Kohl's, a man walked into the junior's dressing room to see his girlfriend model her outfits for him. All us juniors waiting in line did the .

Someone is feeding you a line. It's almost never acceptable. There are a few cases when it's ok, like if it's a really good friend & you're telling them something you couldn't tell them in public (like a dirty joke or that they have a hangin' booger) or the like or when you're at a hockey game & a random stranger (usually been drinking) comes up & says something like "helluva game!" & the response is usually a curt "yep". Anything beyond that is very frowned upon.

And looking anywhere but straight forward & straight down is a potential punch in the nose.

First of all, we don't talk in the Bathroom, we use the potty like we shop....Go in, do what you gotta do, get out..

3 stooges--very childish slapstick behavior....stupid, yet funny..

Jeff...Women wouldn't understand if WE really had to go to the potty, thus we shall always be labeled pigs..

Well, DH has told me guys have talked to him while he is using the urinal, and while I do admit he has said he find its uncomfortable, I always wonder why any guy would be talking to him while he is peeing! Like apparently this guy he used to work with, a very manly kind of guy, was always shooting the **** whilst taking a leak.

Maybe its a regional thing, LOL.

LOL!!!! none of you guys have actually gone to Octoberfest in Germany...have yer?

 

[Serena]

I did, but then I'm not a guy. LOL

 

[iluvorlando]

So if talking in the urinal is taboo, what is up with posting the newspaper over the urinals?

 

[gemmie214]

I never could understand why men have to urinate in a group. Don't you guys want your privacy
I just found out today that most men's locker rooms in gyms have communal showers. Why is that

The thing that makes SSB most realize that men in general are looked on as swine (literrally) is via bathroom design...

At Wrigley and other ballparks, urinals are just gigantic pig troughs .... like big long bathtubs lined up for the swine. VERY uncouth and uncultured in SSB's book.

Did you know that one, BE?

LOL! As you know, SSB, I've never been to Wrigley. Never been in to see any urinals anywhere either. However, I did know at ballparks and other big arena events, men had big troughs. I've asked that question before (my SO is the one I asked ). Tell me something I didn't know.

Jana, communal showers?

 

[joeokw]

I guess what you mean is one big shower? Well yeah that is the norm in large type of places ie: gyms, schools, etc. There is lots of fun in those showers... while in high school and college there was a lot of good natured ribbing going on. So what do women have private shower stalls?. sheech .. Ballparks got the worse rest rooms. I hate the those urine troughs.. no where to put your beer as you pee. Yes there is urinal ettitique.. only speak to close friends ... and only to things that are important. like how is this game? or Did you see the hot chick before? and use only short curt answers or a grunt.

 

[SideshowBob]

So very true about the chit, chat, this and that! HAHA!!

Actually, the newspaper helps to foster the direct vision ahead with no talking with strangers... a fine excuse to be engrossed in the paper, rather than being enGROSSed by the surroundings!



Oh, BE, do you know the rule about when a pitcher is pitching a perfect game ... what the BIG rule is? NO asking your friend!

Comes into play BIG time in the bathroom break....

LOL! My SO hates baseball.

Is the big rule that when the pitcher is pitching a perfect game that he'll definately get lucky after the game? Or he'll be the first one allowed to use the trough? I know he'll usually have the next game off to rest his pitching arm.

Oh, I truly have so much to say here, but I am keeping my thoughts to myself and going on to another thread....

I need a fluff thread.....

 

[joeokw]

right SSb.. you never mention the pitcher is pitching a perfecto or a no hitter.. jinx!! I was thinking about another guy thing.. you never say somthing is too heavy , too tough or too much of a probelm to anyone.. esp. your DW/GF.. just not manly.... Also another manly thing.... never give up the steering wheel ...

 

[joeokw]

oh yeah..... when your spouse asks you if the she looks fat in a dresss just say no.. or is this color good? just say yes!!! saves time shopping
