Sinistral Urinal Handles

Sinistral Urinal Handles

Because sometimes I have bouts with my germaphobic side, I have taken particular notice of urinal handles and the fact that most of them are built for left-handed people. Because I am of the majority with my right-handedness, that means it leaves my clean left hand to pull the handle every time.

I guess that's fine but that got me wondering about all the left-handed guys. After they use their dominant hand to handle their business, they subsequently use that same hand to then flush. That means left-handed chaps are contaminating my clean left hand every time I go and flush after I do my business. It's gross when you think about it.

So to battle this, I try to flush using other parts of my body. I've used my elbow which is pretty easy to do. I've shouldered it which is kinda gross because that puts my face so close to it. I head-butted it once but that left a mark. And sometimes, when it's low enough, I can Bruce Lee kick it.

But the best solution thus far is to just not flush anymore.
