It's because he cannot conquer the fear of what others may think...if he should fail to meet their stringent expectations regarding his masculinity. He dares not pee sitting down! I had that problem for years, and there wasn't even anyone to see me doing it, but I still didn't dare to. Amazing, isn't it? I finally got over it, but it wasn't easy, let me tell you. The first time I tried it I was in stark terror of what might occur...if anyone found out! If my parents should know! The shame! Or if God would punish me! I sympathize with Martin's dilemma.

He's really quite sensitive.
