Are men genetically predisposed to public urination?

[vc1111]

Minneapolis men may no longer be able to relieve themselves freely.



Booming bar business in the city's Warehouse District (search) has led to many drunks using the sidewalks as bathrooms, reports the Twin Cities Pioneer Press.

"It's a nuisance crime. It's not permitted," said Kim Motes of the Downtown Minneapolis Neighborhood Association (search). "And we have bathrooms to take care of these things."

Motes' group plans to spend $10,000 on a campaign urging bar patrons to use restrooms before they stumble home.

"Go before you go" is the slogan being considered for posters and coasters.

"Try to get 1,000 people in the restroom and out before 2 [a.m.]. It's impossible," said Luther Krueger, a Minneapolis police officer. "People don't think about it until the last minute. They're having a grand old time."

Bar owners aren't convinced the campaign will work.

"At the time it happens, most of these people are so intoxicated," said Gluek's bar owner Linda Holcomb, "that I just can't see putting too much effort into it."

Note that when you hear of such a thing, you never expect the female of the species to be involved. It is guys 99% of the time.

Is it because we are the more primitive of the sexes?

Is it because we are more relaxed?

Or is it because we are simply better equipped from a hygienic and/or anatomical standpoint?

Please prepare your answers carefully before responding. This may be the most important issue that you consider for the entire day.

I know that a guy I hunt/work with is (predisposed to public urination). He's a former contractor/carpenter, and claims that he constantly had to outside on the job. Not, he whips it out anywhere! Even right beside a busy road!

When we play poker, he'll just stroll outside and go off the deck, or in the bushes. Heck, he'll pass by a perfectly good bathroom just to get outside! None of us (friends at work/poker group) can figure him out.

When in doubt.....whip it out!!!

Hey why bother with a restroom when it is so easy to take care of!

Must be a northern thing![8D]

It's just one of the many perks of being a male: You can take a whiz whereever and whenever you feel the urge.

There is nothing quite like stepping out onto the back porch and letting 'er rip. Course now that I have moved closer to town, my neighbors aren't too fond of it. . . They'll get used to it in time, though.

If they have that mnay people in one area, why don't the bar owners kick in for some Porta potties?

Well first off, look where it is happening, Minneapolis MN. Today the temperature there at bar time is about -15 degrees. Now think about that, those are real men. Add in the wind chill factor when the zipper goes down and it -45 degrees. Heck, it's not even a liquid when it hits the ground under those conditions. I'll tell you from personal experience that half the way down the droplets are like musket balls and they just roll all over the place. Golden marbles if you eating and drinking the right stuff.
Just try writing your name in the snow when it's like that outside.
Northern North America where men are men and whipping it out in later January proves that size counts or you wet your pants.

simple fact: it is easier for a man to urinate outside versus a woman.


urinating outside just feels good for some reason, very relaxing.

Yes i think its in the type of plumbing mostly, & because of it you feel more relaxed?

Public urination( in bathroom) is a common thing- but those urnals have changed a bit over the yrs- they should post the dayly paper etc above them. or add screens
