According to Stephen Fry, on the current episode of QI, it makes it worse.

Doing anything that will distract your mind from your bladder is much better but standing still is, supposedly, better than hopping around knock-kneed and clutching your crotch.

Even a genius can have an occasional moment of idiocy ... similarly, any idiot can have the occasional flash of genius. [br]Which is nurtured depends on the company they keep.[br][br][br]Everyone is a genius. But, if you judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing it is stupid.[br](Albert Einstein)[br][br]
