Cracking one out in the shower

DH and I were just discussing the weeing in the shower thread: he thinks it’s disgusting, I don’t. Not that I’ve ever done it.

Anyway, I then posited the suggestion that many men choose the shower as a wank venue - and why not? It’s private, the evidence is washed away, and one emerges with a nice clean member.

He was appalled by this. Again, thinks it’s gross, and a complete myth.

I disagree. I’m sure I recall several men in the past either telling me or inferring that they like to bash the bishop in the shower.

Wise folk of Mumsnet, what say you?

When I worked at a boarding school the cleaners once complained because of the quantities of jizz they were having to wipe off the shower walls in the boys' boarding houses.

LoniceraJaponica · 18/08/2018 20:02

I expect at boarding school the shower would be the only place they could do this.

DP does it in the shower

Envy and that ain't envy

MichonnesBBF · 18/08/2018 20:10

yup mine does it in the shower too, makes no apologies for it and leaves no evidence of doing so.

CasperGutman · 18/08/2018 20:10
  1. Speaking as a chap, the trouble with knocking one out in the shower is that jizz doesn't rinse away easily like piss does. Any bloke who does this needs to be cleaning up properly afterwards, otherwise it really is gross.
  1. I'm sure you recall men implying that they like to bash the bishop in the shower.

Can't see a problem with either as long as the shower is left clean afterwards.

longwayoff · 18/08/2018 20:13

God. Men are weird at times.

NotUmbongoUnchained · 18/08/2018 20:13

Well, we shag in the shower all the time so can’t see how it’s any different!

SaucyJack · 18/08/2018 20:16

Sounds awfully energetic to me, Umbongo.

What’s wrong with having a nice lie down while you’re at it?

LoniceraJaponica · 18/08/2018 20:18

Casper. I love your Lynne Truss style linguistic Puritanism even when discussing masturbation. You are a man after my own heart....!

NotUmbongoUnchained · 18/08/2018 20:19

@saucyjack
Oh we do that too Grin

RedPanda2 · 18/08/2018 20:20

Men wank EVERYWHERE

FuckPants · 18/08/2018 20:23

My husband wanks in the shower as it's easy to clean himself up after.

TornFromTheInside · 18/08/2018 20:24

They don't. I can't do it standing up so would never happen in a shower for me. I think it's fairly common - would guess about 60-70% but very difficult to really know.

AynRandTheObjectivist · 18/08/2018 20:26

Do people still say 'bash the bishop'? I seriously thought that was over in 1987.

HoleyCoMoley · 18/08/2018 20:27

Pulling Percy in the shower, um, does anyone care.

TornFromTheInside · 18/08/2018 20:39

The rest of the blokes in the shower with you might not be too happy!

Holey this is MN. We discuss all sorts of irrelevant nonsense here.

Thanks for all your replies. They are fuelling our very serious and erudite discussion over dinner.

Caspar where did I go wrong with ‘implying’ ?

No worse than shagging in the shower surely?

Gah! Inferring. Educate me!

Imply = giving the suggestion
Inferring = interpreting the suggestion

The sender implies
The receiver infers

SneakyGremlins · 18/08/2018 20:47

I certainly don't! Ew.

And most of the guys I know don't.

And I think the pissing in the shower thread was mine Grin

siblingrevelryagain · 18/08/2018 20:53

I wee in the shower if I get caught short, rather than step out mid-wash.

I first used to do it post- birth, as weeing was less painful if I directed the shower in my bits at the same time (I couldn’t quite work out how to sit on the loo and pour water from a jug, as was advised!). After that it never struck me as a problem, as it gets washed down the drain and is therefore hygienic.

I’m sure I’ll be the only one to admit it, but many more probably do it!
