    There was a campaign in Brazil urging people to pee in the shower too save water.

    I’m pretty sure the US army used to recommend peeing on your own feet in the shower to reduce athlete’s foot.

        In any country, I would think.

        Even where grey water systems are deployed for water re-use, shower water /is/ normally collected, but piss would be so diluted as to be a negligable contaminant. A shower uses roughly 70 litres of water. An average human bladder voiding is 400ml, so that works out at 0.57% piss in the grey water collected in a single shower. Negligable.

        Piss away.

          That’s not even what I’m criticizing. You said you’ve done pipe jobs, and it’s all pipes: you can only attest for where you have worked

          And no, in some places water may be used very differently. Pee may contain a lot of unwanted chemicals, especially when the person is medicated

          Edit: In cities in western countries of course most of the time it’s all going to the same place. But I don’t think that’s why it’s taboo to pee in the shower. It’s because it’s seen as unhealthy for the other people using the shower / bathtub

            How would it be unhealthy? Do you not wash your ass in the shower? Does spit and snot not come out of your body in the shower?

    No, because it’s right there next to the toilet and I don’t want to get pee on my feet.

      Strange story for you… I had very bad athletes foot for many years. All the off the shelf powders and creams didn’t help at all. Someone told me to pee on my feet to cure it, I didnt believe them but tried it anyways. Worked amazingly quickly. Occasionally I do it still but not all the time. Haven’t had athletes foot in over 25 years… I’m so sorry for the story. 😂

        You still pee on your feet occasionally as some kind of preventative you’re saying?

          Yep that’s the idea. Not actually sure if its preventing anything… But it hasn’t come back. Its in the shower so I don’t care. Finish washing up and spray the shower with cleaner when im done. 😂
