It's insanity. Unless you are stripping down and showering after every time you walk into a bathroom, and then putting on fresh clothes as you walk out, whatever is attaching to your bottle is attaching somewhere else on you.This seems reasonable.If I'm at a place where I have a table and people are there watching my stuff, I'll leave it. If it's SRO or I'm walking around and i need to piss while I have a drink:
Beer bottle : slip Into back pocket of jeans (if wearing jeans, which is the usual at a bar) and piss. If the place is extra funky, may be sure shirt is draped over mouth of bottle.
Cup : Bite rim to hold it and piss
Glass: Try to find counter space to set it away from toilets, but within sight
Oh, thank god I was able to cover my beer bottle with the tail of my cotton shirt! Surely that same shirt with its thin, breathable blend of fabric didn't have any potential germs cling to it from that bar stool I've been sitting on and farting into for the past two hours.

I made it pretty clear I only cover the neck of the bottle if the place is particularly funky or if people are brushing up against one another in a crowded environment. Regarding the shirt being dirty, I'd rather lick my shirt than the wall just above a urinal.... considering I'm putting the sipping surface of my cup/bottle in contact with one or the other... I chose my back pocket.
Now, if you can set a cup on a flat surface above the pisser where it's not leaning back against a wall.... then I'll generally do that with my cup, and still put my beer in my back pocket.
Not sure why you're so worked up over it. I'm far from a germ-o-phobe... it's just how I choose to do things

Beer bottle in back pocket as you walk into the bathroom is the shark move in any case, though.
