LPT: when you think you are done, push on your taint. You're welcome.

Sure thing. Will shove my hand between my legs and press it really good in a public urinal. That will totally look normal.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

you just reach like 1 or 2 fingers, about half and inch past where your balls end, push up a bit, it can be done inconspicuously. I do it every time now out of habit.

The fact you think it takes this much effort to touch your taint while you're peeing standing up tells everyone here you have no idea where your taint is.

People are not looking at you when you're using the urinal.

Everyone who wants to avoid urinary incontinence issues should do pelvic floor exercises. I don't see it spoken about for men as much as women (women are advised to do this during and after pregnancy especially), but everyone can benefit from it.

To identify the feeling of contracting your pelvic floor muscles, try stopping peeing when you're mid stream (though this is just to help you identify them — you shouldn't regularly practice this way, as it can lead to UTIs).

The way to practice is to squeeze your pelvic floor muscles, trying not to pull your tummy in (or to squeeze your glutes). Hold this for two seconds, then relax. Repeat 10 times. Doing this daily is advised, and over time, you can increase the amount of time you hold the squeeze for to up to 10 seconds. Try to breathe normally while you do this exercise.

In addition to being the best way to prevent urinary incontinence, it can also help with sexual performance too. You can practice basically any time. I often find myself practicing while I'm in traffic, because it's something to help fill the time.

Bro's urethra went on strike.

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

Huh? I'm well near retirement and it's just pee until it stops, a few drops, that's it.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago

....since I was 28...

[–] obvs@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Sit to pee and press the tip with a paper towel.

[–] rotkehle@feddit.org 2 points 5 days ago

men with large prostates can relate.

[–] Shindo66@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Up for two days and no one is going to make the reference?: You gotta give.

I got advice from Reddit one day that the best trick is to quickly, lightly pull your testicles up a little bit and the drops come flying out.

Works but you still have only slight control as to where those drops are going.

[–] RattlerSix@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I couldn't figure this one out. It's just a drop out two, and sometimes not even that. I thought he leaned against the wet sink.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Uh...yeah because why would shaking it do anything? You have to relax your bladder, and squeeze like an udder. Do people not know how were constructed, or what?

[–] x0x7@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

False. There is a U bend between the bladder and the end. Nothing on the bladder end will fix anything. The residual in the pipe gets squeezed out when walking.

I'm going to wake people up to an uncomfortable truth. You already wear diapers. That's what underwear is. Diapers used to be reusable and washable. We just don't like to perceive it that way. We lie to ourselves about what underwear is for. And underwear is why pants last forever and shirts don't. Call me weird but I stopped having this problem when I swallowed my pride and accepted this fact, and realized not all underwear is doing the job we don't want to admit it's for very well.

Wear double underwear. One absorbent, one slick. Same properties as a diaper.

So woah dude, you're wearing an actual diaper shamelessly then? Yeah. We all are. You are too. The difference is mine works.

Other benefit. Because the thing keeping your pants fresh is actually working, now your pants really last forever.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

that's why the advice goes to pull up on it as you pull your pants up so that the drips will be minimized
