Perfectly fine. In fact, I'd have to put your mancard into question for even posting this thread.

You rather them spit in the sink?

A urinal is close enough to a sink, so might as well just spit in there w/ the rest of your piss and flush it away.
I guess it goes back to the spitting thread we had here not too long ago.

Why the need to spit at all?

Yes, we have a prostate gland. If you haven't started farting when you pee, just wait 10 more years.

Why not? What has it got to do with you? If someone wants to have a private spit in the urinal why peeing, WTF business is it of yours?

As you get older, the prostate begins to push on your rectum (damn near killed em), thus poses a little bit of an obstruction to gas flow. The urethra passes through the prostate. When you pee, the base of the bladder relaxes and causes the prostate to drop a little or become a little more mobile, combined with relaxation of the anal sphincter (which works in concert with the urinary sphincters), decompresses the rectum and letting forth gas build-up.

If there are 4 urinals and I'm at number 1, and someone comes in and comes to number 2 urinal, then this means he is GAY. Hurry up and get out of there.

Unless the guy is standing next to you so he can fart on you, like in the OP.

Maybe this is why certain odd people always go to stalls to pee even when urinals are available.

I pulled off a flawless victory today, pee+fart+belch. It's what men do, are you taking notes OP?
