Do you pee in the shower?

[OutThere]

Answer the question. :D

As inspired by College Humor and this article: http://media.www.dailycollegian.com/media/storage/paper874/news/2001/05/01/News/Looks.Like.Most.Of.Us.Pee.In.The.Shower-1548616.shtml

[leekohler]

Of course, I do. Why the hell not? When ya gotta, ya gotta.:)

[shecky]

do you mean just randomly, or while i am actually taking a shower?

:)

[Jaffa Cake]

No, I don't. Here in Englandshire we have very modern bathrooms which feature a 'toilet' which is designed for this very activity, as well as providing a convenient place for your pets to get a drink.

[firstapple]

All the time! :D

[mrwizardno2]

Typically, no - I usually go first thing when I wake up before feeding the dog and kitty, then I take a shower once all that is done --- so I really don't have to go anymore at that point.

I used to, though. On days when my ritual is broken I would consider it. It's terrible to have to hold it through a hot shower. Peeing after always makes me shiver!

[Tofaha]

lol...well sometimes you're in the shower ...and you get the urge, it doesn't make sense to get out and come back in!!:)

[valdore]

Never, for real.

[Mitthrawnuruodo]

Only when the sink is in use...

[leekohler]

lol...well sometimes you're in the shower ...and you get the urge, it doesn't make sense to get out and come back in!!:)

Exactly! It's not as if anyone is drinking water out of the bathtub.

[Tofaha]

Only when the sink is in use...

lol...now thats gross especially since i brush my teeth in that vicinity

[Shadow]

I try not to but sometimes its unavoidable ;)

[yg17]

Occasionally when I'm lazy. It's killing 2 birds with 1 stone :D

[OttawaGuy]

Everyone knows that the shower is for crapping, duh.
;)

[thomahawk]

lol...well sometimes you're in the shower ...and you get the urge, it doesn't make sense to get out and come back in!!:)

true dat, its such a burden to have to go in the middle of a shower, and when you step out its freezing cold! minus'll do it in the shower when its nice and warm.. LOL

but i havnet done that in like since i was wee lil kid :)

[Blue Velvet]

How many of you guys do the housework and clean the shower? ;)

[Rodimus Prime]

pretty much every time. The warm water relaxes me. When I was in the dorms I would only do it if I was the only person taking a shower. It is always at the beginning so plenty of water to wash it down. it all ended up in the same place any how.

[leekohler]

How many of you guys do the housework and clean the shower? ;)

I do. That's my chore. I clean the bathroom and sweep and mop the floors in our apartment. My roomie takes out the trash and washes the dishes.

[Abstract]

Every single time I shower. :eek:

[thomahawk]

How many of you guys do the housework and clean the shower? ;)

its my chore and i make sure its damn sparkling clean

[Electro Funk]

every chance i get... :D

[OutThere]

Only when the sink is in use...

Ah frat parties....er. What? :o

[dukebound85]

I do. That's my chore. I clean the bathroom and sweep and mop the floors in our apartment. My roomie takes out the trash and washes the dishes.

sounds like you go the raw end of that deal lol

[rdowns]

Guilty. The water cascading down is just so conducive to peeing. :D

[iJohnHenry]

It all ended up in the same place any how.

Exactly.

As long as you don't hit your feet, it's all good. http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g158/MouseMeat/Smilies/MMafter03.gif

[Stridder44]

I usually crap in the shower. Peeing is pretty unsanitary.


Yes, im being sarcastic

[Chaszmyr]

Never. I don't want feet that smell like urine, I don't want urine to make my whole shower smell bad, and I don't want to make the job of cleaning the shower any more difficult. When I was younger I would pee in the shower, but one day I decided it's gross and it's pretty simple to use the toilet before you get in the shower.

[leekohler]

sounds like you go the raw end of that deal lol

Hah! No- I worked in the restaurant biz for years and I'm very good at it.

[Eidorian]

When I had roommates I was the only one that did housework. :mad:

[jessica.]

This thread should be a sticky for anyone considering meeting another member offline whereby they may find themselves spending a lot of time with one another and having to actually use the shower.

I do not pee in the shower. I shower in the shower and pee in the toilet. I find it good form to pee before I shower, pee in the toilet. I simply don't think peeing takes so much time that one would find the need to consolidate tasks.

[Blue Velvet]

its my chore and i make sure its damn sparkling clean

Good for you. Uric acid helps keeps those tiles clean as a whistle. :D

I bet some here let their mothers or girlfriends clean up after their shower-pissing. That poll should have been a public one. ;)

Yeah, but sometimes you don't think you need to go til you're already in the shower.

[iGary]

Occasionally.

[teflon]

Uh... NO.
I'm germaphobic, I don't really want pee to touch my legs/feet/other body parts. I guess it works better for guys, but I don't think girls can do it without risk getting sprayed.

[rhett7660]

Urine is sterile. :D

[Lord Blackadder]

78% says yes...

Reminds me of George Costanza (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7TsRgg953k&feature=related). (At the beginning and at 6:50).

[slimpaul]

Happens to me. :p and my cleaning lady takes care of the housework :D

[yg17]

Urine is sterile. :D


It is, but I don't think I want to go pissing on my plates and silverware to sterilize them ;)

[Blue Velvet]

I've deleted some posts. Let's keep this thread as family-friendly as possible, thanks. There are kids here.

I do go before I shower but with 2 or 3 cups of coffee in me, the sound of water makes me go again. :D

Peeing in the shower is green- it saves water. :cool:

[teflon]

Yeah, but sometimes you don't think you need to go til you're already in the shower.

Which is why I usually just use the toilet whether or not I think I need to go before shower anyways. Plus, how long do you guys shower? Most people can sit though a 3 hour movie without peeing, so why not just hold it for 5 minutes?

[r1ch4rd]

I am really surprised that so many people do it. I had this discussion with friends before and everybody said they didn't.

Anyway, it sounds pretty horrible to me so I piss in the toilet (like a civilized person ;) ).

[Applespider]

Uh... NO.
I'm germaphobic, I don't really want pee to touch my legs/feet/other body parts.

You do know that urine is sterile (if you're healthy) at the point it leaves your body. It might even be cleaner than the water you're showering in...

Let's face it, peeing in the shower has got to be better than peeing in a pool :eek:

[Lord Blackadder]

The difference between the things people say they don't do and the things they actually do is vast.

[ButtUglyJeff]

Its good for the environment. Don't you want to save the planet?

[Melrose]

Urine is sterile. :D

Quote from the OP's link:
According to medical reports published online, urinating in the shower can have its helpful effects, but is not encouraged. It can aid in the treatment of Athlete's Foot and genital Herpes. Also, the sound of a shower has been found in some people to actually trigger a psychological response to physically relieve oneself. University Health Services said it was unable to find actual evidence supporting any benefits to urinating in the shower.

I used to all the time - 'Course, I guess I was more juvenile at the time since I'd aim for stuff and what not. If I do now it's a very rare occasion, truthfully..

[rdowns]

I am really surprised that so many people do it. I had this discussion with friends before and everybody said they didn't.


I bet they also don't pick their noses or masturbate.

[Dagless]

Yup :o

But it's a fairly powerful shower so any fluids are washed away instantly and I always aim for the drainage hole. And I'd never do it in anyone else's shower. Or if the boiler breaks and it becomes a trickle.

Gotta be picky.

[calculus]

On a good day I can reach the toilet from the shower...

[deriko100]

When im in the shower already I do but not when I go in the bathroom to pee I dont in the shower.

[Blue Velvet]

This thread should be a sticky...

Oh, believe me. It is.


Gotta be picky.

Standards, after all, must be kept.

[Melrose]

I bet they also don't pick their noses or masturbate.

In the shower? That's a poll for Mittens... ;)

Peeing in the shower is green- it saves water. :cool:

I don't follow this argument unless you wash or rinse with it, in which case, it's just wrong.

[teflon]

Let's face it, peeing in the shower has got to be better than peeing in a pool :eek:

You're talking to the girl who washes her hands while in the shower, than washes them again while she's getting ready :p. My bathroom mirror is pretty clean too, I still refuse to wipe them with my hands when they're foggy.

Ok yea peeing in the pool is pretty nasty. My cousin used to joke that the reason the kiddie pool is so warm is because all the kids pee in it. Once a kid actually took a crap in the pool, and they had to close down the kid pool and drain all the water :eek:.

[rdowns]

I don't do that either but it's more because I hate smears than germs

Once a kid actually took a crap in the pool, and they had to close down the kid pool and drain all the water :eek:.

I was once at the pool when a kid threw up. The gruesome thing - the attendant got some kinda of net and just scooped the vomit out. :eek: Never used that pool again. :o

[rdowns]

I don't follow this argument unless you wash or rinse with it, in which case, it's just wrong.

Saves water by not having to flush the toilet.

[Melrose]

ah right. I stand corrected. Here you had me wondering what type of Body Wash you used :D

[RITZFit]

shower drainage is less than epic...nuff said

[Compile 'em all]

eww, no.

[apsterling]

If I have to go while i'm in it, sure!

[erickkoch]

No, it never occurred to me, but now that I think about it, it might save water since you don't have to flush. Hmmm.....

And as far as urine being sterile, that's not quite true. I do Urinalysis in a hospital lab, trust me, there are all kinds of icky things in urine. Healthy urine is usually sterile though.

[montanachad]

I shower at the YMCA and will pee in the shower if nobody else is in there.:D

[Xavier]

I do when im really really tired and lazy.

I have noticed people doing it in the showers in my dorm. Its gross but I do it too lol.

[noaccess]

Sure. Why the hell not? :)

Part of the reason is, I live in a building that dates back from the 1800's, and apparently, back then, the norm here was... having the toilet in its own 3x3 ft. room, separate from the actual bathroom, with the sink and the bathtub inside.

That would make it inconvenient to not pee while showering, if I ever had the urge. I'd have to walk from the bathroom to the toilet/room and back, potentially exposing raw nekkidness™ along the way, to people in the kitchen, the hallway, people outside windows in either of those rooms etc.

But... then again, I'm lazy as well, so... ;)

[jamesarm97]

Yep, I do. I think I even remember Madonna saying years ago that she did (and something about curing athletes foot?).

How many of you guys do the housework and clean the shower? ;)

I clean them (and everything else). I even go as far as bleaching them once a week.

(edit, I found the Madonna reference)

Dave: Oh, jeez, we're out of time again. [laughter] What are you going to do now? What are you going to do after the show?
Madonna: Did you know that it's good if you pee in the shower?
Dave: I'm sorry?
Madonna: I'm serious! [crowd reacts uncomfortably] No, seriously, peeing in the shower is really good. It ... it fights, um, um, athlete's foot. I'm serious, no, urine is like, is like ... is like an antiseptic. It's all got to do with the enzymes in your body.
Dave: Don't ... don't you know a good pharmacist? [laughter]
Madonna: Ummm ...
Dave: Get yourself some Desenex! Or whatever that stuff is.
Madonna: I wanted to share something that I knew with you.
Dave: Okay, well, thank you very much. Ah, I'm going to try to wrap this up.

- James

[LeahM]

No I don't. If I wanted to step in piss I would let my dog pee inside.

Seriously, the toilet is like 2 steps away.

[OutThere]

That poll should have been a public one. ;)

I really thought about it but I felt the response would be more genuine with a private poll. :D

Doody!

http://achillesblog.com/tomtom/files/2008/04/caddyshack_doody.jpg

Beat me! Priceless.

I am really surprised that so many people do it. I had this discussion with friends before and everybody said they didn't.

Anyway, it sounds pretty horrible to me so I piss in the toilet (like a civilized person ;) ).

Next time try having those sort of discussions with a few beers on hand. :D


As for me...as I've lived in the college dorm and shared a shower space with ~20 other guys for the past couple of years I've been taking advantage of 1] The curtain divided stalls (we didn't have dividers in boarding school) 2] the fact the school cleans the bathrooms daily. Unfortunately I've been conditioned to the point where I have to pee really badly upon entering the shower...

I also do other shower multi-tasking, such as shampooing, peeing and sipping beer at the same time, should I be showering before going out. Ah, college life.

[zap2]

How could you vote yes vs sometimes? So for yes its people who only pee in showers?

:-p Seems like more work then its worth, starting up a shower when ever you need to pee!

[teflon]

How could you vote yes vs sometimes? So for yes its people who only pee in showers?

:-p Seems like more work then its worth, starting up a shower when ever you need to pee!

I interpreted yes as people who do it whenever they shower, or at least whenever they felt like peeing when they're showering. The sometimes people are the ones who only do it when they can't hold it, or rarely feel the urge to pee while showering.

[Abstract]

A better question to ask me is, "Do you ever pee in a toilet?"


I've deleted some posts. Let's keep this thread as family-friendly as possible, thanks. There are kids here.

Kids pee in their pants. Surely they're not above peeing in the shower occasionally.

[redwarrior]

I wasn't going to post in this thread, but that response almost had me peeing in my pants.:p

[Blue Velvet]

Kids pee in their pants. Surely they're not above peeing in the shower occasionally.

The posts concerned weren't about peeing. ;)

[Abstract]

Was it about the positive effect on their complexion? That's where these conversations usually lead.

[redwarrior]

Na, I think it might have been along the lines of the adverse effect on eye sight.

[Blue Velvet]

Was it about the positive effect on their complexion?

:D

Yeah, I had to rub them out. Things have a habit of getting out of hand.

[Abstract]

I actually regretted making that last post. :p I thought it would lead to this thread being closed.


I don't understand why people are so afraid of pee hitting their feet. I'm not a fan or a fetisher or anything, but it's not very dirty, and it doesn't make cleaning the shower or bathroom any more difficult, unsanitary, or disgusting. If you're happy to clean a toilet that's been used for the "other" thing, cleaning a shower that a person has pissed in certainly isn't so bad.


Na, I think it might have been along the lines of the adverse effect on eye sight.

Ouch. :(

[joepunk]

There was this one time when I was riding on Amtrak. I was taking a shower and all of a sudden had to go. Well, there's no point in getting out of said shower, dry off, get dressed and then find out all the toilets are occupied in my car.

I cleaned up afterwards.

[ghall]

I used to when I was younger, but not anymore.

What? I'm telling the truth! :)

[NC MacGuy]

If I'm there and I gotta' go, I go. Do try and aim at the drain though since I'm not fond of wading in it.

All the concerts, taverns and various unsavory places I've ventured - the shower is one of the few locations I'm not ashamed to admit peeing in.;)

[richard.mac]

yup!

No, I don't. Here in Englandshire we have very modern bathrooms which feature a 'toilet' which is designed for this very activity, as well as providing a convenient place for your pets to get a drink.

of course i dont pee in the shower throughout the day. but theres something about the sound of running water that makes me go… so whenever i have a shower i gotta go.

[cheeseadiddle]

I pee in the shower, and so does my gf. The first time we took a shower together, she peed on my feet. At first I was like, WTF? Then, I peed and that was that.

[dukebound85]

Why not just let it go? I just don't see a problem.

[richard.mac]

its sterile. goes down the same drain as the toilet. sound of running water makes you pee phenomenon i.e. "go when you gotta go" attitude.

only negative thing about it is some people find it disgusting.

[benlangdon]

wow i can't believe the amount of people who say no.

i do not understand.:confused:

[FrankieTDouglas]

Of course. Out of all the times and places I have to pee, in the shower is the most "liberating." Just... let it out. There's no holding a fly open, pants up, aiming at a toilet, or etc. Just letting gravity work naturally.

I was in the shower once with my girlfriend. We started talking about peeing in the shower. She said she does it, too. Then she wanted to watch me pee in the shower... I have a shy bladder in general, but that took it to a whole other level.

[ayeying]

yes. I can't be bothered to get out naked and pee in the toilet.

[Mitthrawnuruodo]

lol...now thats gross especially since i brush my teeth in that vicinityYou brush your teeth in my sink...?!? :confused:

Oh, and when you brush your teeth, do you fill the basin and use that or just rinse it under the running water...?

How many of you guys do the housework and clean the shower? ;)Well, my girlfriend refuses to clean out the drain under the shower/bathtub, despite the fact that I've not contributed with hair to the clogging there in years (;)), so that's my chore... :)

I've pulled some really nasty things out of there over the years (I used to have long hair, too, before moving in with my girlfriend), and a bit of pee is really the least of my concerns...

[teflon]

Why not just let it go? I just don't see a problem.

I guess I just find it a little gross, regardless how sterile pee may be.

This thread should be stickied, so all future MR couples know what to ask before they move in together :D. If their partner hadn't already answered it here, that is.

[gusious]

Sometimes yes... But not every time!:p

[mouchoir]

wow i can't believe the amount of people who say no.

i do not understand.:confused:

I can't believe the amount of people who say yes!

:eek:

[leekohler]

But I just don;t get it. It's not as if you're drinking water out fo the tub.

[bassproguy07]

something about running water always causes me to go. Its easy for us guys, but do the macrumors females pee in the shower??? i would think it would take some effort to not pee all over yourself.

[Dagless]

I also don't see the problem if you aim it at the plug hole. Surely that makes it a non-issue?

[xUKHCx]

Living with 6 other blokes for the last year I can honestly say that it is not a pretty habit. When the bathroom isn't cleaned as regularly as it should it really becomes apparant that is not something that should be done at all.

[takao]

well i can't believe the amount of people saying yes either

and yes having the toilet separate from the bathroom is superior ... unless you have another second toilet around or are living alone

[jamesarm97]

This thread is so funny, of course we all pee in the shower, it's human nature,
especially first thing in the morning, as jamesarm97 noted it must be good for you, my dog's always got his nose in the shower tray drinking the remains of my morning shower :eek:, can't taste too good, not long after he is usually licking his b@lls to get rid of the taste....................

[Big-TDI-Guy]

But I just don;t get it. It's not as if you're drinking water out fo the tub.

But when a hurricane or natural disaster is heading toward you - for those that stay - the FIRST thing CNN will tell you is to fill your bath tub full of water - so you have a fresh source or drinking water. ;)

You were saying... ? :D

[gusious]

God, this is getting disgusting....

[bassproguy07]

just took a shower, and yes i did pee in the shower....like i said earlier there is something about running water that makes me have to go!!!!

[redAPPLE]

...my dog's always got his nose in the shower tray drinking the remains of my morning shower :eek:, can't taste too good, not long after he is usually licking his b@lls to get rid of the taste....................

ha ha ha. that sir made my day. thank you very much.

do we have an agreement, that everybody that said "yes" are guys?

i chose "sometimes", because sometimes, there are times when you are so stressed and you can't plan and say, ok, get up, then pee, then shower.

i must admit, i slept in this hotel/motel place one time and the toilet was so disgusting... in the middle of the night i just had to go and i had to do it on the wash basin.

i think i do it out of necessity.

btw. do we have a count on how many female forum members said they do it?

[leekohler]

But when a hurricane or natural disaster is heading toward you - for those that stay - the FIRST thing CNN will tell you is to fill your bath tub full of water - so you have a fresh source or drinking water. ;)

You were saying... ? :D

Given that about the only disaster we might have here is a tornado, I'm not too concerned. Besides, If national disaster was on it's way and you were going to fill your tub with water to drink, wouldn't you clean the tub first anyway? Just sayin'... ;)

[iJohnHenry]

Why bother??

If the shower was running while you were having a wiz, it will be virtually gone.

If not, it will be massively diluted by a tub full of cold water.

Worry about your ass from the tornado/hurricane first. :p

[John Jacob]

In India we had a Prime Minister (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morarji_Desai#Retirement_and_death) who used to do that. :D

My answer is occasionally (to peeing in the shower, not to drinking it :eek:).

[cdcastillo]

... but my wife does... :rolleyes:

[c073186]

I do when I have to (I don't make a ritual out of it or anything); but... I do make sure that it is only going directly into the drain. I don't like the idea of it being all over the tile, even if it does get washed away. I figure if it goes straight into the drain, then there really is no problem.

[twoodcc]

sometimes. like others have said, when you gotta go, you gotta go

[EV0LUTION]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

of course what guy doesn't, it goes down a drain right?

[MarkCollette]

I think I can understand why there's a bunch of people saying no. A lot of people's showers don't drain properly, because of an accumulation of hair, mucous, and god knows what. And it's more likely to be showers that girls use, since their longer hair clogs easier. In that case, peeing in the shower would probably be pretty gross. Also, women's bodies are more likely to entail the pee running down their legs and feet. Sure, it's being rinsed off right away, but I can understand some people being squeamish about that.

But as a guy, living alone, who washes his own tub, and maintains the drainage properly, most of these negative factors just don't exist. In my case, I do it every single morning, not just because it feels good, but as part of a ritual, that I think is healthier than not doing it. After washing privates with soap, I think it's good to flush things out, to avoid irritation from the soap chemicals.

But as a guy, living alone, who washes his own tub, and maintains the drainage properly, most of these negative factors just don't exist. In my case, I do it every single morning, not just because it feels good, but as part of a ritual, that I think is healthier than not doing it. After washing privates with soap, I think it's good to flush things out, to avoid irritation from the soap chemicals.

Why don't you just pee before taking the shower? :confused:

also people are saying no because it is gross.

[elmancho]

I make aımıng rıght at the plug hole my specıal mıssıon, ı should be a snıper by now!

[gusious]

Why don't you just pee before taking the shower? :confused:


Why do 2 different actions when you can do it all in once?:D

[atszyman]

I also do other shower multi-tasking, such as shampooing, peeing and sipping beer at the same time, should I be showering before going out. Ah, college life.

But if you're preparing to go out and peeing while drinking that first beer, doesn't that break the seal and force you to go more often as the evening progresses?

just took a shower, and yes i did pee in the shower....like i said earlier there is something about running water that makes me have to go!!!!

Do you guys have some sort of insta hot shower? I turn the shower on in the morning and end up going while I wait for it to warm up enough to step in. If the sound of running water got to me, I'd explode before I got to pee in the shower since there seems to be about 3 miles of plumbing in my house between the hot water heater and the showers.

Can't say I recall the last time I peed in the shower...

[MarkCollette]

Why don't you just pee before taking the shower? :confused:

Oh, I always do my toilet duties before showering, so that I'll end up as clean as possible. But then I drink some more, before showering, so that I can pee after rinsing off the soap. Is peeing in a urinal gross? How is peeing straight down a drain, with hot cleansing water washing over you, not the most sanitary procedure possible? I do this because I'm a clean freak.

Ah- so for you it's a "practical" approach. I don't buy it. You're a perv, Mark. ;)

Well, there is the odd time I'll pee on a girlfriend's leg, in the shower, just to mess with her :) You've got to watch out for their claws though, if they're the retaliatory kind :p

[MarkCollette]

Oh, I totally recommend it :) Mostly because it`s funny as hell. I mean, you`re in a small confined area, and there they are, trying to get away from it, with nowhere to go. And if they do remain calm, you can always get them going by just peeing higher up on them. Hahahahaha... Always a good time :)

So you pee in the shower cause you are a clean freak?

uhm...okay.

[Much Ado]

Showers, baths, swimming pools. The possibilities are endless.
Disclaimer: I voted 'no'.

[teflon]

But I just don;t get it. It's not as if you're drinking water out fo the tub.

No, but it may be running down my leg, dripping on my feet, or mixing with the water that I'm standing in. Especially in my tub, everything seems to go backwards first before going forward to the drain, at least that's what happens with hair. I don't want the pee to touch me, swish around the tub, before finally going down the drain. Plus, what would I use to wipe? My hands? Another no no :p.

I sure won't be swimming in the pool your using!

Here's a question, who takes a leak whilst out surfing?


EDIT: some people here seem to do strange things in the shower... :p

[Jelite]

Unless you wash down the toilet bowl and surrounding area everytime you pee then doing it in the shower is actually cleaner.

Assuming you're peeing down the drain with the shower on as opposed to peeing up the door with the shower off.:D

Put it this way if you had to lick an area would you choose the bottom of the shower were it gets washed down or the floor surrounding the toilet were you get all sorts of splashback and drips.:p

[Mindflux]

Heck yeah I do. Pee is sterile! It's the mixing with air that causes it to become un-sterile and by the time you'd have to worry about that it's long gone.

[TheReef]

Assuming you're peeing down the drain with the shower on as opposed to peeing up the door with the shower off.:D

I think the poll needs to be expanded, those who pee straight down the drain or those who…do other things. :p

[MarkCollette]

So you pee in the shower cause you are a clean freak?

uhm...okay.

Because of fluid dynamics, when peeing regularly, there's misting and sprayback effects, even just at a microscopic level. Hence why we wash our hands after. But most people don't wash their actual private parts after peeing. But I do, in the shower. Think of it less in terms of peeing or not in the shower, and more that you're going to pee, so do you want to be rinsed off or not.

A friend of mine even has a device on his toilet that makes it act like a bidet, so he can get washed off, every time.

You're quite a catch Mark ;)

Totally! :)

That actually makes a fair bit of sense. Mix in with my method of aiming for the plug and it's win/win :D

Uh, yeah. That's a bidet. It's just retrofitted to a 'normal' toilet.

[noaccess]

Heey -- that makes sense.

I'm a germophobe myself, and I notice if I pee in the toilet, sometimes droplets bounce back, onto my skin. Kind of makes me uneasy. And now, that you've mentioned this, having it verbalized on a forum, I've kind of become more aware of this fact. I guess I should say thanks, kind of reconciled how "germophobe" and "shower-peeing" can exist at the same time in the same person. So, uh, thanks :)

Nothing beats that lean feeling, but if it warshes everything off it's got to be one strong stream to reach that high when you're standing at the toilet. Or do I mistakenly assume that the majority of guys stand whilst they take a leak?

[Apple Hobo]

Sending urine down the drain is taboo, yet sending your bodily filth, slime and whatever assorted bits of human scum you wash off yourself is OK? The way I see it, a shower is nothing more than a toilet for your whole body. If it can be washed down the drain, it's fair game! :D If you insist on keeping things squeaky-clean, just keep your messes off the walls or the other places where the soap and water can't wash it away.

There are no societal stigmas, taboos, or any self-imposed shame in my bathroom. :p

Be free and let 'er rip.

[benflick]

It all goes to the same place.

Yep I don't get it myself. People poo and then shower to rinse off any residual fecal matter yet some sterile pee is freaky?

[smt1192]

I did it once, and never felt comfortable doing it again. :eek:

[rdowns]

I did it once, and never felt comfortable doing it again. :eek:

Maybe you did it wrong.

[gibbz]

Yeah, you have to make sure you have a handle on the exit velocity. Once I didn't pay close enough attention and the pressure was a bit higher than expected. The handles and spout fell victim that day :o

[ravenvii]

No, there's this nifty invention called the toilet, as others mentioned above.

I turn the water on, then take a pee, in the toilet, while the water heats up. Efficient, eh?

[Schtumple]

I have a big open shower at uni (win on having the disabled suite :p), but I've never felt the urge tbh, the toilets not that far away really..

[Big-TDI-Guy]

So it would appear (thusfar) that not only do the majority here favor Apple Computers, but they also favor urinating in the shower.

Honestly, I'm surprised.

[FrankieTDouglas]

I've needed to pee but knowing I was about to shower, I've held it until I jumped in. Then again, I don't shower in a community area. Just my big, private bathroom.

[Dagless]

Not if you flush the toilet after, as you're then wasting water ;)

But if you're preparing to go out and peeing while drinking that first beer, doesn't that break the seal and force you to go more often as the evening progresses?

This is very true and a concept well understood by all college students...however I am altogether too well conditioned into letting it rip as warm shower water flows over my body. :p

[Melrose]

Not if you flush the toilet after, as you're then wasting water ;)

Not to mention getting a dang cold shower in the meantime..

[n8mac]

On a good day I can reach the toilet from the shower...

Gold!

I was in the shower once with my girlfriend. We started talking about peeing in the shower. She said she does it, too. Then she wanted to watch me pee in the shower... I have a shy bladder in general, but that took it to a whole other level.

Ahhh, so that's what home plate is.

So it would appear (thusfar) that not only do the majority here favor Apple Computers, but they also favor urinating in the shower.

Honestly, I'm surprised.

Me too. I would have thought they used Windows.


Wouldn't it be odd if when we are potty trained we were trained to pee in the shower. Then the title of this thread would read "Do you pee in the toilet?"

[Berlepsch]

Me too. I would have thought they used Windows.



Wouldn't the neighbours complain?

[Dmac77]

Guilty as charged. As for the whole feet that smell like urine thing, that's completely untrue, unless you're peeing on your feet. JUst aim for the drain. And yes, cleaning the bathroom is my job.

Don

[kymac]

Now that this thread has been dredged from the urine-soaked shower drain...I think I may have conditioned myself to the point that hearing the sound of the shower makes me feel like I have to pee. :eek:

[jav6454]

Guilty as charged... but not frequently, only those occasions when I get the urge.

[shivermetimbers]

Seriously? I laughed for about 5 minutes when I saw this thread title. What is next? "Do you fart in the shower and then laugh at the reverberation?" LOL

No, I do not pee in the shower. The toilet is a few feet away. I'll go before or after I shower. Plus, my wife is Korean and ultra-clean....if I pissed in the shower, she'd quickly administer an ass chewin.

[Reventon]

lol at this thread. But yeah, I don't do it everytime I shower but I do sometimes. Why not? It just washes away down the drain and I have a pretty powerful shower so the urine washes down pretty quickly. Just aim for the drain, easy. What guy doesn't pee in the shower? It's like asking what guy doesn't pee in the bushes if there's no toilet around.

[jmann]

If I have to go then yes, I don't have to every time though. It's not a big deal in my book. :)

This poll really should have been a public one :eek:

As I voted in the yes, why get out of the shower to take a wizz when it goes to the same place - down the drain. Of being a guy, there's a huge advantage for us, they we can basically go where ever needed. Behind a truck, or a tree, in a shower etc.

[spillproof]

If I have to. But, not normally.

[wvuwhat]

I enjoy peeing in the shower. Anything to cut a minute or so off of my "getting ready" in the morning time.

I don't hold a candle to my buddy though. He was berated for one night of drinking, for the remaining three years of college. We were living together our Sophomore year, 4br/4ba apartment. I wake up after a late night of partying to a girl screaming "Oh my god."

Kenny had apparently taken her to her to his room and done the deed. Afterwards, he somehow ended up in his shower. While in the shower, he had found a way to **** at the end where he feet were located in the morning. She walked in to go to the bathroom that next morning, saw that, freaked out, and started screaming.

He will NEVER...EVER live that down. I can't wait until he gets married and I have to give a groomsman's speech.
