Even Romans hated the toga, it was like a full business suit. Worn only when absolutely necessary!
Considering the nature of public urinals (ceramic jars lodged in the street along alleyways), the average Roman must’ve had some way of getting their ‘passage’ clear and ready for draining, but I’ll be damned if I know how one quickly slips on and off a garment like this!
I’m thinking there’s enough room to take out your snake from the side without loosening the entire thing, then when you’re done, if necessary, give a bit of a tug to tighten things back up.
And if you have to go nr 2 or you’re a lady with the same garments, then I assume you just release the flap, go about your business and reattach it? Doesn’t seem too cumbersome. A flap between your legs which you tuck into your belt.
Sumo wrestlers use a mawashi which has a similar issue. See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvF7wvkd-gI the guy’s wearing BJJ-style compression shorts bc otherwise he’d be naked at the beginning, but you can see that the mawashi has the same kind of “pouch”. Basically you just snake it around and tighten up afterwards, like you say.
