I don’t want to offend anyone but I’ve just discovered that my dh wees in the shower! It was mentioned on a tv programme and I asked dh if he ever did that and he admitted that he does when he’s caught short! I was shocked and I am no way a prude. What do others think of this?

I don't do it, but I don't think it's a problem; there is worse that goes down the drain.

What about those fatbergs?

I have a feeling my husband probably does I don't really want to know. I will be making sure I use more antibacterial spray from now on. I myself always go to the toilet before I enter the shower, it makes me feel fresher.

The best was when I was camping once and went into the ladies toilet block and a young lady had her kecks down one leg up on the wash basin washing her nether regions ?

I have had a wee in the shower yes. My ex-partner used to have a wee in the kitchen sink if he felt too lazy to walk upstairs to the toilet, which was taking things too far!!

I won't bore you with a mention of water sports grinwinkblush

M0nica Fri 16-Nov-18 18:15:45

and what is wrong with a bit of laziness?

Urmstongran Fri 16-Nov-18 18:05:00

sufuller I’m just shocked to read that you are shocked !!

Marieeliz Fri 16-Nov-18 17:20:18

How lazy can you be, just use the toilet, I always go before a shower. Never felt the need to use anything else but the toilet. Only when out walking and find a bush on a 10 mile walk.

It is a lazy thing to do.

It's only wee.

Seakay Fri 16-Nov-18 17:07:23

I'm mainly surprised that you are shocked and that you think "prude" would be thought applicable

Prude - noun - a person who is or claims to be easily shocked by matters relating to sex or nudity.

Urine is sterile, what’s the problem

moobox what a cliche, yawn.

there was an actress called Sarah something (possibly Miles) who used to wash her face in her own urine to halt the aging process.

With a 70 year old bladder, 6 pregnancies and 'water' tablets, having a wee before I get in the shower is only the first of many - then add in running water!!!

I wasn't going to mention sex in the shower. blush

A funny story, I was out in the countryside with one daughter and grandkids I badly needed a wee so told the others to carry on whilst I found a tree at the side of the path It was quite steep slope so I ran up a bit to get away from anyone walking by and found a nice big tree to hide behind I was midstream when something made me look up and there above me at the top of the slope was another path I hadn’t seen, with lots of weekend walkers and I was right in their eyeview on the wrong side of the tree for that path ???

8 pages so far! First world problems, lol

Helenlouise3 Fri 16-Nov-18 15:58:56

I don't see the problem. As others have said, gallons of water come through the shower and wash it away. My GP actually told hubby to wee over his feet when he had a bad case of athletes foot. One of the best treatments for it!

I didn't know that Monica. Thank you. ( And how nice to have a place in France.)

Jalima1108 Fri 16-Nov-18 15:53:22

does your DH know you are on here sufuller
grin

SiobhanSharpe Fri 16-Nov-18 15:49:31

I'd say you were indeed a prude -- I was expecting to read something far worse.
This is very minor in the grand scheme of things.

Jalima1108 Fri 16-Nov-18 15:30:34

oh yuk, I don't think I could do that!

Out in the wilds with no water. Always take a horse with you. Hsndy for getting around and you can drink their blood. A nick in a neck vein and Bob's your uncle. grin

sparklefizz You do not get a smell from the kitchen sink because all sinks/basins/loos/bath have U bend traps underneath them. The U bend always has water in it so no smell escapes.

We have a holiday home in France and sometimes, if we have a big enough gap between visits, especially in summer, the water in one bath U bend, in particular completely dries up. We always know when that happens from the smell of sewage in that bathroom. Run the tap, fill the U bend again and the smell goes away.
