to use the words wee and pee interchangeably?

I thought that I quite often went for a pee, but apparently this is impossible because, as a laydee, I don't pee but can only wee. Also pee is short for penis (presumably I am therefore in possession of a wenus). And I must be terribly careful that DD does not learn the word pee (this week she learned the word shit).

Or should I just give up on the whole thing and only ever go for a tinkle?

I always thought pee was sort for piss (as in just the letter p). I also just pee and wee pretty interchangeably. Maybe I'm wrong as well.

Who has made these rules up Dita? Sounds like something my mil would come out with!

My insane granny She also insists on pronouncing shower "shah" and enunciating the h in white. It is a constant source of amazement to her that anyone married me, bearing in mind my pottymouth and my insistence on tying my hair back rather than letting it flow around my shoulders in a ladylike manner.

AIBU to want to use pee ALL the time now?

think it depends where you live when I lived down in Lancashire it was wee but here everyone says pee.

DitaVonCheese · 16/07/2010 23:01

We are in Cheshire but very close to the Lancs border ... I'll tell her that the Scots say pee as she considers herself to be one

My Dahling Mahther keeps telling my 3 little tykes 'we are at table!' (put on Queen's accent) and expecting them to immediately sit up straight, take their elbows off and use cutlery. She's eating at the wrong pig trough table.
I mean 'at _ wrong table'
