There’s an entire subset of the population that didn’t want to wash their hands during the pandemic, the bar is much lower than this.

If you ever go for a shit in a men's public toilet, especially in a pub, you get to be lucky enough to hear multiple people not washing their hands after a piss.

I was in a bathroom recently, and a guy used a urinal, then the hand-drier, then left.

He got enough urine on his hands that he decided that he needed to dry them, but still chose to not wash his hands.

People are gross.

How does one even get pee on their hands whilst peeing‽

[–] DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

I am not trying to body shame, but I am assuming it's a size issue.

If your overweight, the fat on your lower stomach goes outward, but the penis doesn't get any bigger. So, I assume it's much more difficult for some people to use a urinal.

When it snows in winter, things appear to be smaller because the snow drifts cover them. Fence posts and flag poles still show above the snow, but things like fire hydrants get completed covered. If you need to hold a fence post, you can probably walk up the snow bank and touch it, if you need to hold a fire hydrant, you'll need to go digging.

And this is why you use hand sanitiser even after washing your hands. Like you would expect the dryer not to be covered in piss, and yet.....

Every time I use a public restroom I'm reminded how much better urethral health I must have compared to the average man... The sounds of sheer pain some of these guys make while literally just taking a whiz is... I dunno, saddening? I wouldn't even know that lots of men moan and shudder and groan while peeing if it weren't for public restrooms. What are the normie men doing to their cocks???

I didn't think this had anything to do with urethral health. Sometimes it just feels so good if you've been holding for a length of time. I moan occasionally, but it has nothing to do with pain as much as relief.

I also wash my hands every time and talk shit to people who don't, cause I'm huge and can get away with stuff like that(read don't put yourself in danger, I'm doing it enough for both of us)

You never know who you might be talking shit to... but you do you.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 1 points 2 weeks ago

You have no idea. I pretty much welcome death at this point. If me talking shit to you about not washing your hands, then society gets a bonus of two pricks taken out of circulation.

The shudder is not consider a sign of bad health but so far no studies had been performed to confirm the exactly cause.

If it comes out in a series of bursts, something might be seriously wrong with their prostates.

Prostate issues - usually manifesting as trouble pissing - are quite common especially in older men, but it's an embarassing subject so people don't usually talk about it
