    Some of the guys I know would rather piss outside than go find a toilet.

    I’ve done that a few times. But personally it’s because a urinal is quiet and a toilet isn’t, and I’m rather self conscious about making noise in the bathroom.

          Fair enough. There are good arguments for it, mainly about the mess that’s made from not sitting down.

          Even if you have perfect aim, and a highly focused stream, splashback is a serious factor.

          There’s more, but that’s a big one.

          Far be it for me to tell you what to do, or what to like. Have a good day sir.

            Yeah. I’m also aware of that, and I’m not thrilled about it. But ultimately a urinal, with a bit of focus/attention works just fine for keeping splashback to a minimum.

            No matter what you do, you’re gonna have more bacteria on you leaving a bathroom than when you came in. So at the end of the day, if you try to deal with it by washing your hands and minimize it where feasable, personal preferences are fine.

            Have a good day.
