    It’s not a choice. It’s like some primal instinct or something.

    Edit: urinals don’t typically bother me but if you try to talk I’m done. Can’t do the troughs. It’s not insecurity it’s just a little privacy and peace is nice.

      I’ve heard jokes about it, but I didn’t think it was a widespread thing. Doesn’t the need to pee outweigh the fear of… well. Whatever the fear is I guess? What exactly is the fear?

        For me, I just don’t like having my genitals out when other people are around. It’s not about whether they’re looking or not, it just feels uncomfortable being exposed. Same reason I don’t use public showers at gyms and such.

          Dear Can’s Subconscious,

          I was writing to ask a question: y u no pee? U scare? Y?

          Sincerely,

          WoahWoah
