Q: Why can't Chinese men use the toilet properly?

As the headline. Why can't Chinese men piss straight?

 

I've just had a great Cantonese meal but as per usual, on going to the bathroom, I've had to stand there, legs akimbo, while having a pee to avoid standing in puddles of piss!

 

Why? Is it short-sightedness? Bendy dicks? Badly done circumcision? Not caring? Lifestyle choice?

On the contrary, I'm impressed with Chinese guys pissing skills. I have often marvelled at how with their belt undone they can piss no hands without their pants falling down, whilst smoking and talking on the phone.....and stealing a peek at my superior junk.

Deng  Xiaoping, my hero, was a short fella.

 

I suspect his height was taken as a standard for urinal height. So if you are taller than him, you splash.

The guys stand a meter back from the urinal and just let fly. Sometimes you'll see them not even enter the stall, just piss into the door.You see signs at places like airports sometimes telling the blokes to step up to the urinal before peeing but there is usually a big puddle on the floor in front of it..

 

I'm not sure why they do this except that the last 35 guys did the same thing so I get why nobody after that wants to get too close.

 

Then, you have the fact that often bathrooms just aren't cleaned, no matter what state they're in, and the fact that even if they are clean nobody gives a shit about trying to keep it clean and they'll still treat it as if it was an overflowing shite hole so it basically always will be revolting.Therefore people will continue to do the same thing... and so on...

LastTargarean:

Yes, I have seen this ridiculousness. I might also add that water pipes are as often as not, misproperly installed. I have been sprayed more than few times. This might help to explain part of the why.

no such thing as a plumbing license here, the migrant worker learns it from another migrant and so on, most of them put pipes in empty buildings and water is never turned on to check for leaks until somebody buys the unit. on the job training professionals that never get a quality check to see if they know what there doing, by the time you know the pipes leak, they are putting pipe another development and long gone from the carnage they left behind, and the process repeats.

im making a guess here, but wouldnt it stand to reason that since they are first generation drivers, they are also first generation urinal users?  There ya go.

Lifestyle choice.  As if they actually get lifestyle choices.  

I don't piss on the floor because I opt not to.  They piss on the floor because they choose to.  It's their lifestyle.  

For me, other people's lifestyle choices don't bother me, unless they have some kind of negative effect on my lifestyle.  In this instance they do, so I fkn hate the filthy disgusting non-evolved bastards who force me to buy a new pair of shoes several times per week.

My imagined lifestyle doesn't involve forking out 45% of my salary on replacement shoes, but that is what I am forced to do and I've just about had a gutfull.

You're either paid poorly or buy bloody expensive shoes Royce!

Not very expensive shoes.  500/pr, X 3 per week.  An engineer can do the maths.

But I do admit it is a stupid way of dealing with the problem.

Ok then.....  Fook it!.....  It'll be goom boots from now on then.

The same reason they buy expensive oversized cars. To make room for their ego.

Pilgrims with short-barreled muskets should stand closer to the firing line.

can 12 downvotes in this forum be considered the all-time worst? GreatTao should be awarded some special award for his excellence here.

iWolf:

Indeed, an outstanding effort.

For once,  an old thread with insightful comments.

 

The same reasons behind pollution, shitting on streets, bribing, da ma dancing with LOUDspeakers at full volume, screaming school bells, fake @#$ (endlist list) : selfishness, unscrupulous, ruthless. Survial of the fittest? Define "fittest" ........

As a penis owner, I miss the toilet some, even in my home. Usually when I am intoxicated. 

 

I hate Chinese bathrooms and toilets because most of them have a hole in the floor and not a real toilet one would sit on. I do not use the squat unless my colon is about to explode. I also make a mess that I do not want to clean up nor wanting a cleaning person to do.

 

Living in the city, if I am caught in public, I can go to some high end hotels or restaurants. The subway has a handicapped bathroom which has been a blessing at times.

 

I am blessed with a body schedule so I do my business at the house. This last year I worked in a fairly remote college campus with nothing but holes, and I was blessed that I only had to go there twice in 10 months. The second time I borrowed two low bench seats and put them on either side..

 

I enjoy taking the Chinese trains out seeing the country. Once I took the train from Hangzhou to Xi'an and one night after drinking beer in the dining car I noticed a real toilet. Yay! I can take a shit in the morning! Next morning I walk there and it was locked and they refused to open it, and I went nuts (or apeshit). i was banging and banging and refused to move and they finally opened it.

 

I would hate to be a woman here, that would suck. At least I can urinate standing up which is very convenient, and I do not have to face.
