About women who can piss like a race horse?

I am not obsessed with weeing nor do I regularly take interest in other's toileting but I was set thinking today while I washed my hands in work toilets.

When I wee I can only describe it as a tinkle, a light 'hiss' if you like. It comes out in a orderly flow at a leisurely speed. Enough to have a sit and a ponder about life's many quandaries without getting too deep. Now, I have just gone for a wee and I timed it for the purposes of this thread and it took 1minute and 10.51 seconds. Yes I know it's odd to time a wee.

Back to hand washing in work toilets. I exited the cubicle and a woman came in and she had finished her wee and was out of the cubicle in the time it took me to wash and dry my hands... and I am not thorough.

Astonishing. But the main thing was the sheer power and force of the wee. It was like when you see a racehorse piss. Very noisy and all over in 10 seconds.

I can't fathom this. What's going on in the difference between wees? Most people seem to tinkle but them I'm astonished when a racehorse wee'er appears. I think I'm envious.

DD has amazing bladder control, stemming from the fact that her school only has squat toilets for the students. Confused She can go from 8 to 4.30 without peeing but when she does it's like Niagara Falls!

I just hope it doesn't have any long term effects...

Nakedavenger74 · 15/06/2017 11:06

What joyful replies! I've always been intrigued as I have a friend who wees in 5 seconds flat while I'm only just getting comfy.

I'm going. To time a normal wee later as I think Pinot Gris gin wee might just be more plentiful.

Off to time my piss... ⏰

MidsummerMoo · 15/06/2017 11:09

Ha ha ha! I've wondered my whole life why some women seem to take ages in the toilet whereas as I'm in and out. Guess I'm a racehorse!

yumyumpoppycat · 15/06/2017 11:09

My fears confirmed too smarties! Always a relief when I hear a fellow racehorse in the next cubicle.

WoodlandView · 15/06/2017 11:12

You intrigued me, just timed it and mine took 16 seconds! I don't make much noise but my sister is a racehorse, you can hear her from afar!

SmartiesMakeMeNaughty · 15/06/2017 11:20

I've always suspected slow pissers assume I'm a massive dirty bastard who doesn't wash my hands and that that accounts for the lightning speed of my toilet trips.
Recently this was confirmed by DN giving me this face Hmm and confidently proclaiming "there is NO WAY you washed your hands Auntie Smarties. You didn't have time." While aggressively performance washing her own hands at me as if to call bullshit on my filthy habits.

NotAPuffin · 15/06/2017 11:23

Sgtmajormummy, I never peed in school, from the age of 3 till I left at 18. It didn't do me any harm!

Now I have to go and time myself...

SanFranBear · 15/06/2017 11:25

I am also a racehorse... and proud of it. Comes in handy in festival toilets, I can tell you - who wants to spend more than 20 seconds in those Grin

greedygorb · 15/06/2017 11:26

If I've need to wee for ages and holding it in - I tinkle very politely. It's like my bladder is still in the holding it in mode. Otherwise I piss like a racehorse I think.

GabsAlot · 15/06/2017 11:28

over a minute? dont think ive done one that long must time it nxt time!

ZucchiniPie · 15/06/2017 11:28

This is brilliant! I've always wondered why other women take so long to pee as it takes me 10 seconds max, even with a full bladder. I'm very regularly in the situation in loos, say, in theatres where all 7 or 8 cubicles are busy and I go in and out before the person who was waiting behind me has been able to go in.

kaitlinktm · 15/06/2017 11:28

I must be a racehorse as I am often waiting outside the loo having washed my hands wondering what on earth everyone else can be doing. I am sure there is something else I should be doing inside the cubicle which everyone else does. It must be a mysterious weeing cubicle secret which sadly now I will never know.

WhooooAmI24601 · 15/06/2017 11:32

DH calls my wees "power pisses" because it sounds exactly like a jet-washer on a patio.

I put it down to having strong muscles; a childhood on horses and an adulthood of yoga and pilates means I've got groin muscles like thor.

TheFairyCaravan · 15/06/2017 11:34

A couple of years ago I had a pelvic surgery and my bladder got torn. Before they took the catheter out they had to fill it with some sort of dye under X-ray to make sure it wasn't leaking. When I saw the consultant he said "bloody hell! You've got a huge bladder!" like it was some sort of compliment.

I used to be able to go to all day without having a wee, then go like a dray horse, but I'm on diuretics atm (for tinnitus of all things) and so now I'm weeing all the bloody time. It's most inconvenient.

Syc4moreTrees · 15/06/2017 11:37

i think you need to see a doctor...that's too long for a wee Grin

ZucchiniPie · 15/06/2017 11:38

I am sure there is something else I should be doing inside the cubicle which everyone else does.

Me too! Grin

sparechange · 15/06/2017 11:40

I don't think racehorse pissing is a sign of poor pelvic control, PP

The opposite, in fact. I've got a pelvic floor of steel which means I can BLAST that wee out

user98765797837 · 15/06/2017 11:40

ok I am NEVER going to pee in a public toilet again.... I'll be too worried about MNers timing/listening to my "power piss" lol

Mines power....unless its the middle of the night and I'm tired and want to go back to bed...then my bladder decides to do a very slow tinkle lasting what seems like half the night.

haha...next there will be a thread asking "who poos in a public loo? "

Whatthefoxgoingon · 15/06/2017 11:46

Strong pelvic muscles. I can hold a huge amount in my bladder for ages and then pee like a racehorse

StrangeLookingParasite · 15/06/2017 11:49

I was chuckling to myself at work yesterday about public loo etiquette. The woman in the next door cubicle totally let rip and then there were squeaking and straining noises! I had to then dash out of the loo as fast as possible rather than face the culprit.

Being of the unashamed persuasion myself, I've always wondered if the squeamish were expecting perhaps a silencer of some sort?

SmartiesMakeMeNaughty · 15/06/2017 11:58

I suppose I've always wondered that too. I'm somewhere in the middle ground between feeling self-conscious and thinking "oh fuck it, it's a toilet and thus a place to relieve myself where we should all expect a heady admixture of smells and sounds."
But I think it's probably emblematic of a general sense that women should be nice and decorative and that our piss should sound like angels laughing and our arses should smell of lavender scented drawer liners.
I'm pretty sure that lots of men are quite happy ostentatiously horsing out a big splashy piss and having a public fart off while the women next door are cringing about who might be judging them.

MoodyOne · 15/06/2017 12:01

I find the position that I sit affects the sound ... of I'm in public I sit closer to the bowl so it trickles down the bowl into the water. At home I plonk in the middle and trickle into the water, so it is louder like that.

CondensedMilkSarnies · 15/06/2017 12:03

I have another annoying habit - Every Time I clean my teeth I need a wee after , even if I have had a wee just before cleaning my teeth I can always go again.

CondensedMilkSarnies · 15/06/2017 12:04

My friends nan was a really noisy wee'er. We used to say she must stand on the loo to be able to make such a racket!
