Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })While the Wondrous Ladies Room may be a place for chatting, primping, and various Women's Mysteries, the men's restroom is a place dedicated to speed and efficiency. When using the restroom, men must observe certain unspoken guidelines that dictate their behavior therein and speed up the process of using the lavatory. Except in extenuating circumstances, such as overcrowding, any breach of these guidelines is discouraged and can lead to some awkward and embarrassing situations.
Keep all interaction to a bare minimum. Do not make eye contact with other men, as this may be interpreted as an unwelcome invitation. Also, never let your gaze wander to any body part of another occupant, whether or not he is of any genuine interest to you.
When selecting a urinal, stay as far away from other men as possible, so as to better comply with the previous rule. Strict adherents sometimes use a stall or elect to wait if no non-adjacent urinal is available.
Avoid making unnecessary noises. While grunting is never appropriate, the occasional cough is usually all right, though there is always the chance that this could be misinterpreted, as per rule number 1.
And finally, the one rule that must never, ever, be broken: Never say a single word while within the restroom. Not only is it an unnecessary noise, but it grates against the philosophy of speed and efficiency that governs Male Restroom Etiquette. It slows down the transaction process and makes using the restroom awkward and unpleasant for other occupants.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Whenever Male Restroom Etiquette is brought up in media, it is usually Played for Laughs as we watch some poor soul try to use the restroom while another man shows complete disregard for the above rules. And while many men can attest that these rules are indeed Truth in Television, most know that a breach of these rules is not so awkward as some make it out to be. Contrast The Can Kicked Him (or its subtrope Camping a Crapper), the ultimate breach of etiquette.

KROQ's The Kevin and Bean Show used to have a recurring segment where Kevin would sit in a men's bathroom stall and try to spark awkward conversation with the men pooping in the stalls beside him. His conversational gambits usually began, "Hey... what are you doing?"

Scrubs: Turk has been following Dr. Cox around the hospital trying to be friendly- and discovers he is on the same "pee schedule". Turk attempts to have a chat with Cox at the urinals. Cox is majorly annoyed at this and cuts him off, telling him, "This is a men's room, there's absolutely no talking!" Nevermind that they have a full conversation immediately following.

In the first Remnants book, Jobs is washing his hands in the bathroom when Billy comes in. The narration specifically says "Jobs gave him a civil, neutral nod; after all, guys didn’t chat in the rest room," which is so on-the-nose that it kind of gives away that the author is a woman. Incidentally, Billy is currently in some sort of psychic trance, so he winds up freaking Jobs out by a.) staring into space, b.) talking in his native Chechen, and then c.) uttering vague yet ominous Foreshadowing.

In Waiting..., this is what caused Calvin's phobia of public restrooms. One time a man was in the adjacent urinal, and just wouldn't stop staring at his junk. A few days later, he's in a similar situation, except this time the other guy was adhering to the standard rules. Calvin still yelled "QUIT STARING AT MY COCK!" and ran out.

Seinfeld averts this in the cold open to "The Yada Yada", which shows Jerry and George having a typical Seinfeldian Conversation while using side-by-side urinals. "The Finale" shows where Jerry's line is drawn when George tries to use the bathroom at his apartment without closing the door.
In another episode, the etiquette is violated by George's boss Mr. Wilhelm, who walks into the bathroom in the middle of telling George all about a big, important assignment he wants him to do. George dilligently waits outside for him so as to not violate the etiquette. However, after George has been wating for a while, he ducks his head in to see what was taking Wilhelm so long and discovers that he had kept talking the entire time he was in there without realizing George didn't follow him in. George now has no idea what his assignment is, and can't tell Wilhelm that he didn't hear it because Wilhelm has already reprimanded him multiple times for not paying attention.

The Sketch Show: At least two sketches parody this.
In one sketch, Jim and Lee are in the restroom and awkwardly making idle conversation when Lee finishes and is about to leave. Then Jim finds himself unable to finish his own business so to "perform" he asks Lee to stay, who grudgingly obliges.
In another sketch, Tim, Jim, and Lee are all standing next to each other in front of the urinals. One of them is drinking a beer, another needs to light and smoke a cigarette, and another is minding his own business. Inevitably, at least two of them are no longer holding their own old fellas after the exchange.

In The Looney Tunes Show, the characters (especially Bugs) have violated this on more than one occasion by talking to each other or themselves, and the awkwardness of doing so is clearly evident.
In "Double Date", Bugs is done giving himself a pep talk and leaves… but not before outright telling the man using the urinal next to him the gist of what he said to himself. The man keeps an awkward expression throughout the scene, clearly trying to ignore him.
“To Bowl or Not to Bowl” has Daffy call Bugs into his “office” (the bowling alley’s restroom) to explain why Bugs shouldn’t be in the teamnote Because everyone else is so pathetic that he’s the coolest person on the team, something Bugs would wreck… In the middle of which, the man using the stall beside them comes out. He confusedly and briefly exchanges glances with Bugs and Daffy before leaving.

Interestingly gender-inverted in Bless the Harts; one episode focuses on a woman occupying the only working toilet in Last Supper and female restroom etiquette dictates that Jenny and Louise can't simply tell her to leave, as it would be rude, even though, according to same etiquette code, the woman is violating the rules by staying in there for so long. It soon spirals out of control, with Jenny trying various ways to get her out and a literal news story develops around it. Jenny eventually realizes the woman probably has a good reason for occupying the stall for so long (which she does, she's suffering from a nervous stomach) and she's probably just too afraid to just ask to be left alone, because that would break the etiquette code. Thus, she simply tells the woman to take as long as she needs and keeps everyone out, solving the problem. The whole thing becomes a discussion on how women often limit themselves out of fear of seeming rude or breaking etiquette.
It also subverted, as none of the men understand why they don't just tell her to hurry it up and Wayne even goes as far as claiming there are no rules in the mens' room; anything goes.

Invoked in one episode of Family Guy: an employee at the brewery is trying to talk to the new boss, Bert, about something while they're both at the urinal, only to be told that he doesn't talk to people at the urinals. The scene then flips to them at the sinks with the conversation starting again and Bert thanking the employee for waiting. Ironically, Bert's aversion to talking at the urinal doesn't stop him from talking to Peter while he's on the toilet a minute later.
