Do you pee in the pool?
03/10/2012
I always get all freaked out that if I do pee in a body of water it would give microorganisms a chance to find my urethra a-la willy fish, but you know, more microscopic and infection-y. So no, no peeing in any water I'm submersed in for me. Over-thinking: occupational danger of being a biologist I guess.

I would never pee in a pool. that's just not right!

I used to pee in contained bodies of water like pools and hot tubs when I was younger, but now I only do that in natural bodies of water and my shower.

I have peed in lakes or the ocean.

Hmm, interesting pool. And I will openly admit that I do pee in large bodies of water.

I'm gross. I pee wherever whenever. It's sterile after all.

I won't pee in a pool...yuck!
04/11/2012
oceans, lakes, rivers. lol only after at least 6 beers!
04/06/2013
In the ocean Yea! In a pool never. U don't really go to water parks anymore because they freak me out
04/07/2013
Don't some pools have a chemical in them that turns a dark blue if someone pees in it so you have a dark blue puddle around you? Or is that urban legend?

The ocean or a lake? Maybe. I don't swim there, however, and I would never do it while in the ocean at a beach where there were others around. Maybe if I was off a private beach or out on a boat. As for in a pool or hot tub? Oh my...never, ever, ever. That is a closed body of water. Who wants to "stew" in pee???? Even if you enjoy some "urine play" in the shower or whatever, I cannot imagine you want to bath or swim in the stuff?????

Chlorine kills germs. It does not "remove" the urine. Once in the water...well, there it is. Diluted, yes, but still there.

It is only sterile if the person has no infections, or virus types that can indeed come out in urine. Many STD's as well as other contagious disorders can show up in all body fluids, including urine.

It's true. Pee is sterile so it's relatively safe but it totally grosses me out to think there's pee in the pool!

Ha, Ha...that is what I just told LaUr3n too. We have oceans on both sides of this country. Big ones. They are BOTH worth seeing.

And not that I've had the opportunity for years, but I wouldn't care if I peed in a lake/river/ocean. No different than the animals doing it (and they do!). But it'd still only be a last resort and only if I was already in the water.
And ~LaUr3n~, you've never even seen an ocean in person? Road trip!!! less

In the ocean once, but it was 1/2 mile to the board walk and god only knows where the bathroom was from there. At the pool there's always a bathroom near by, so there's no need for that.

Whoa. I just pee in the bathroom before, lol.
04/07/2013
all places, except hot tubs. not cool

I can't believe adults would actually pee in a pool or hot tub, much less that they'd admit to doing something so disgusting and anti-social! A little kid might not be able to help it, but really, people!
I don't pee in, or near, lakes, rivers or streams, either. When I'm backpacking, or doing anything outdoors, I follow the proper procedures with waste and make sure to pee at least 200 feet from any water source. It's only fair: we're ALL downstream from something.
This discussion does bring to mind two signs seen at friends' pools when I was a kid:
Don't pee in our pool and we promise not to swim in your toilet.
and
This is our "ool". Notice there's no "P" in it. Please help us keep it that way."

When I'm swimming in a lake or out on the boat all day, you bet your ass I'm jumping in to pee. Where else do you want me to pee? On my boat's floor? Maybe the seats?
04/07/2013
I'm not peeing in my pool, I'm the one who has to clean it.
