Urinating

Something you are bound to run into after a night on the razzle is men urinating in public. I do not only think it is very unrespectful to urinate against properties that aren't yours and are not supposed to be urinated on, but I also think it isn't so nice for the people walking by. And of course there are the consequences of doing this (think of all the phonebooths you've entered that had a distinctive smell), that public urinating people don't even think about. Is it really that hard to wait untill you find a bathroom? Probably 95% of the time this deed is performed by men. Naturally, a reason for this can be found in the difference of ease between men and women that it takes to do this, but if a women would really want to urinate in public, she would be able to do so. Still, most of the people you run into that are urinating in public, are men. And then us women always get the blame of having a small bladder and having to go to the bathroom all the time. Why can't they hold it a bit longer then? Is it something to prove masculinity, or -when doing it in a group- is it bonding? Finally, after centuries without, there is a proper drainsystem and there are enough toilets for everyone, even public toilets, and somehow so many men still turn to medieval or even to be called beastly actions. They're not dogs, are they? I have heard stories of people in India urinating on the ground, but their reason to do so is because they haven't got a decent drainsystem. Apparently, there is something to it, because it is almost impossible to walk the streets on a night out without running into urinating men, or without being confronted with the smell of urine. So, why do so many men do this?
