I don't pee in the shower but I do pee in the ocean. No foot infections either. Lucky I guess.

I do. And I got fungus. maybe because you're pointed downwards?

1) Occasionally

2) Nope!

1. Yes
2. No

I think you may be on to something!

*blink blink*

I can't...why would...how are we...I...

*mouth opening and closing and opening again*

You are SO WEIRD.

I love you for it. ;)

1. I would never, ever pee in the shower, and I can't stop shuddering when I am reminded that some people do;

2. I have never had a foot fungus or infection;

3. If I did pee in the shower, I'm not convinced it would kill any fungus, but I do think it might help with the mould on the grout between the tiles on the wall. Especially the higher, hard to reach ones.

1. On occasion
2. No

Well obviously, the hubs pees in the shower. And he had one of those toenail fungus things. I bet he's very glad I just told the Internet both of those facts.

1. No
2. No

1. Used to when I was a wee lad. (pardon the pun)
2. Nope, no fungus here.

1. Yes (especially when pregnant)
2. Yes (but I have ingrowns)

Is that TMI for you?

1. Only under extreme circumstances.

2.Nope

1) No I never pee in the shower

2) I've never had a fungus or athlete's foot or anything like that (thank goodness!)

I also asked the Hubs these questions:

1) No he doesn't pee in the shower (he got grossed out that I asked and then asked me if *I* pee in the shower?!?! Heh)

2) He has HORRIBLE foot fungus issues (yes, it grosses ME out, but what can I say, I still love the guy)

So I think we pretty much messed up the bell curve, huh?

Feel free to remove our answers from your survey if need be :-)

I'm shocked at the number of people who claim NOT to pee in the shower. Obviously, my answer to #1 is yes. (and no foot problems here)

You don't get overcome by the urge? Liar.

1. Yes.
2. Unless you count ingrown toenails that I pick at too much and they get infected, then nope.

1) Yes I do
2) No I haven't

To add another aspect to your theory, did you know that piss is the BEST thing to treat acne? From my dermatologist friend, patients with even severe acne benefit from this natural home remedy. Please stop reading if you are easily grossed out.

You must use your first morning pee...pee on a hand towel and then (I do not jest...please brace yourselves) pat it on your face. The word in the derm world is that doing this even just a handful of times clears up acne miraculously and practically overnight. Within days the difference is astounding...her words.

I think I'd rather have the acne but to each his own.

Who admitted to doing this? What a brave and honest soul!

i used to pee. i haven't in awhile.

and i've never had any foot problems.

1. I don't take showers. I take baths. So, obviously, I don't pee there. And if I did I certainly wouldn't admit it on the Internet.
2. No.

you kill me! I'm dyin' here - I so needed this! yer grreat! I love it!!!!!

1. no, I don't, but I've done it once (not counting times before age of 8, since I'm sure I did it as a child, but have no recollect of ever doing so - but I'm sure I did, almost)
2. no, I haven't (knocking on wood too), BUT my ex-hub did, chronically, and it was AWFUL!!! He wouldn't stick to the topical sprays, oinments, powders, etc etc, so I would sneak the stuff into his shoes and rub Absorbine Jr. (sp?) on his feet while he slept - the man was dead to the entire world whenever sleeping... Whenever I'd layoff the clandestine treatments, it'd flare up again.

I gotta stop writing now and read everyone's comments!

you kill me!

1. On occasion, but not too often

2. Never have.

Re: Meg's comment-

Dr. Torrie says you're right about the urine cures acne thing! Yummy!

1. When we had a bathtub that drained quickly, yes. Now that we don't, no.

2. No.

And that pee/acne thing....ewwww. lol

1) No
2) No

My husband is a doctor and he pees in the shower - he uses the foot infection thing as his justification for doing it.

1. yes
2. yes back in high school.

Has anyone done it at the gym???

Okay look. I love this blog, I love the readers, and I love that we are all comfortable enough to speak openly about...pee stuff. But does that mean that we HAVE TO? I am officially grossed out. I still love you guys, but ew. :P

asking people if they pee in the shower is like asking prudes if they masturbate.
Everyone that says no is lying.

1) yes

2) no

It's a well known fact here in Oz that peeing in the shower is good for foot health :)

1.Yes. (But not when we are doing grey water!)
2. Unfortunately, yes. Put it down to standing around in theatre clogs all day.

1) Yes
THANK YOU for putting this out in the open. You are ballsier than I. And I think the more vehemently people deny it, the more often they do it. (Yes, Nilbo, I'm looking at you!)

2) No

We haven't gotten the pee/acne lecture yet. Maybe that's next year?

Yes, I pee in the shower. I have never had an infection.

I've heard about this before, somebody once told me that Madonna claimed that if you pee in the shower it prevents foot fungus. Yes, I do pee in the shower, lol... and no - i have never had foot fungus ;)
I'm not ashamed to admit i pee in the shower either. I should make a t-shirt that proclaims that fact.

I pee in the shower. Recently grossed out my daughters when I told them this (one wanted to get out of the shower to pee, I told her not to be ridiculous, to PEE IN THE SHOWER. Complete mortification.)

Afraid I have had a toe nail infection in the past. A fungus.

1. No, but now I'm considering it.

2. No

Yes i do!

I was told by several people that they cured their foot fungus by soaking their feet in pee for 10 minutes in the morning and at nite. It worked and now they are fungus free! sO IT IS TRUE!!

1. Yes
2. No

My husband has athletes foot and it's nasty. Have no idea how I haven't managed to contract it as of yet...maybe because I'm peeing in the shower!

I'm reading through some archives to get to know you and your blog a little. Officially I love you now because you talked about peeing in the shower on the internet.

One time a guy developed a crush on me because I was the only girl he'd ever met who would admit she pees in the shower. And everyone else thinks I'm crazy and gross, but whatever. Everyone pees in the shower sometimes, and if they don't, then whatever, they're the weirdos.

Thanks for tackling this taboo subject. Also, no I've never had a foot infection or fungus.

yes i pee in the shower i have for years but i am a girl so it doesn't reach my toes. and yes i have cronic althlet's foot and i am going crazy ..

All the time. Its' fun. I don't know why people get so grossed out about urine. It's sterile, people.

No, never had "fungus among us."
