Urinal Mechanics

March 9, 2010

When you approach the urinal, when do you start to unzip? Do you wait until you’re right in front of the urinal while in your stance, do you unzip in your approach to the urinal? How far away from the urinal is considered too far, if you’re a zip-before-you-get-there approach?

I suppose this is a question of personal style, but I think this is part of a larger discussion of male bathroom etiquette. Personally, I don’t want to fully address the urinal, be in the stance and everything and only then start to unzip and negotiating with my underpants because that takes too long. And no one likes a urinal lingerer. But, if you unzip on the approach, then you run the risk of unzipping early, looking like a pervert, especially if you’re more than one step away from the urinal with your fly down already. So there’s gotta be the perfect urinal mechanics. What do you think they are?
