Peeing in the water..... Aibu

[inmyshoos]

Partner (male) thinks EVERYONE knows it's not ok to pee in the water. That it makes a horrible drum roll noise and no one wants to hear that. Having been married before I know not everyone feels this way... Not why I divorced him BTW
Wondering what's the 'norm'....
Not just weird curiosity BTW, trying to settle a difference of opinion between father and son.... In a light hearted way obviously.

Is he being unreasonable to think peeing in the water is NOT ok? Let's have your votes ladies

Erm, what? Peeing in what water?

In the toilet bowl sorry thought that was obvious.... Peeing in most other bodies of water defo not ok

What are you on about?

Do you mean pissing directly into the toilet water? I wouldn't but then I'm weirdly prudish about stuff like that

Where does he think people should wee? In the sink, in the garden?

Does he mean you should put paper in first to dull the sound? 🤣

@Batteredoldchesterfield
I think they mean allowing the piss to hit the bowl and trickle down the sides

What people do on the loo is their business. As long as everything is left clean and tidy I honestly don't care how they pee!

What? Where do you pee?

I thought you were talking about swimming pools, in which case definitely not acceptable. In the toilet, obviously, it's completely normal.

I don't think us ladies have the ability to aim our wee to hit the side of the toilet bowl. If your husband is that prudish that he blushes when wee hits water, well I'm not really sure what to say about that!

My OH and adult DS both sound like a pair of camels when they go.
Can't say it bothers me, as long as their aim is good that's fine!

If it makes a horrible sound surely the solution is to shut the door so nobody hears??

Yes peeing on the bowl rather than in the water....
It's the noise. In small house. Partner thinks no one needs to hear that. Clearly unusually polite as I thought

MN never fails to deliver on the weirdest of topics! This has never crossed my mind before now!

My DP was brought up by his Dad with the firm belief that it's impolite and ungentlemanly to aim straight into the water and make a racket, so shoots for the side. Can't say it bothers me either way, and I don't think Women have as much of a choice in the matter anyway

It's the noise. In small house. Partner thinks no one needs to hear that.

Your house would want to be very small for this to be an issue; or else you are listening to each other's toilet visits with one ear to the door 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'd worry that peeing on the bowl would splash more. I may be wrong...

The only time I avoid peeing directly into the water is if it’s the middle of the night and I don’t want to wake DD As her bedroom is right by the bathroom and she’s easily woken other than that I don’t care and as long as the pew goes into the actual toilet and not all over the floor who cares

Noise travels esp in my house unfortunately so yeah you would hearing someone peeing if your in the room next to the bathroom.

In my downstairs toilet which backs partly onto neighbours lounge if your using it you can hear them chatting if they are in their lounge, not word for word but the odd word

So I take it if I can hear them they'll hear me so I put loo roll in now first so it dampens any noise

I asked DH to sit down when he goes to wee in the middle of the night and stop waking me up with his Niagra Falls racket.

Jeez with the reaction I got you'd have thought I'd asked him to chop his willy off or something!

Can you get your partner to have a chat with mine pls

As a bloke, i just prefer to piss on the toilet seat!

Pee in the water. If you pee in the bowl it’s more likely to splash around everywhere. That isn’t polite.

We all pee onto the bowl. The water makes so much noise.
