pee fear!
7 Answers
Does anyone else suffer from 'pisser's paralysis'? i.e. you're DYING for a pee but when you go to a pub toilet and get to the front of the queue,you can't actually pee? i usually make a lot of loud coughing and spitting noises. Failing that,i actually PRETEND i've just done a wee (shaking the non-existent drops off). PLEASE say i'm not alone in this!!

No you are not alone we all do it from time to time go straight to the sit down ones and if you are really bursting empty your bladder the first time then try to relax your muscles round your bladder area and see if you can empty some more out .It means you have longer to wait till you take another visit and go through it all again.
Definatly a "man Thing". Think it is because you are intimidated by the other blokes there seeing your male-pride. Try using a cubicle.... will the privacy help...? i may be barking up the wrong tree completely but you know we are all sometimes embarrassed over these seemingly 'little' bodily function things. You are not alone.....
