Man weeing in the street

Yabu - if you gotta go, you gotta go

yanbu- beyond the potty training years, pissing in the street is completely unacceptable.

for context this was busy street, near schools, at 3:30pm today while I was walking my child home from school. Man pissing up against a home’s garden wall.

I used to live next door to a pub. They used to drive out of its car park stop alongside our drive, and pee on our drive wall. I once walked round from putting my car in my garage, going to my front door (11pm) and caught one mid flow, put on my best teacher voice, "Well, that's not very nice, is it?" and the flow stopped and off he went. They were minutes from the pub loo.

Hedge in local country park. Picnic benches all round. Bloke gets up, straddles himself, pisses up the hedge, shakes himself off, goes back to eat his barbeque. I glared at him. Gross moron.

kitsuneghost · 12/05/2023 20:48

Was there anywhere else he could go? Bad place bad time I agree but I have seen myself walk 45min without finding a discreet enough place to go.

See also spitting. It’s grim. Very much a man problem. Women who are more likely to have knackered pelvic floors (I assume) rarely urinate in public.

Women actually have stronger pelvic floor muscles than men which means men can't hold pee as well, so when they need to go they need to go.

I remember seeing a post very similar to this a few months ago with a young woman seeing the same thing. It had a very different response to this one. The OP was called a pearl clutcher and told to get over herself etc etc ..I'm glad the responses here are more sensible. It's gross!!

Sudokufail · 12/05/2023 21:05

Pretty disgusting. Could be he was drunk, or has mental issues. It's definitely not normal.

Several children in I can assure you that's not true. But rather than whip out my fanny I take appropriate preventative measures.
What you mean is, like the poster who was teaching her continent six year old it's preferable to piss in a busy public place than look for a toilet (whilst admitting she wouldn't allow a girl to do the same thing) these men have been trained up to not be able to exercise any control.

My fil actually does have a degree of urinary incontinence but as he is not an animal he plans his life accordingly, like all us women manage to do.
If men actually did have such poor pelvic floor muscles that they needed to do this adult nappies would be the only sensible option.

TheGuv1982 · 12/05/2023 21:08

What sort of feral areas do people live to see this? I’ve never seen someone pissing in the street during the day in my life.

The comments about spitting, yeah I’ve seen that though. Grim.

Baring any particular physical or mental disability an adult male should be able to plan his fluid intake and make note of where toilets in his routine are so he isn't caught so short he needs to expose himself in public.

Please stop trying to excuse these particular types of men and their disgusting, entitled and in some cases unlawful behaviour.

Believe it or not just around the corner is what the local estate agents all a ‘leafy, desirable area’.
People just don’t care anymore.

I'm not condoning it. Just explaining why you see men pee in the street much more than women in response to another post.
Because you have a particularly weak pelvic floor does not alter the general difference.

My son said he saw the neighbour next door peeing against a tree in his front garden last week. I was sat watching tv a few days later and saw him out of the corner of my eye - hands down trousers just about to pull it out. I was up and knocked on the window shouting don’t you dare ! He stopped and putting his hands up like he was surrendering mouthed sorry. No need for it at all.

Ilovetea42 · 12/05/2023 21:16

It's disgusting. I remember walking past two teenagers doing this and they turned to pee at me thinking it was funny. Wonder where they're at in life now.

I understand some people might have issues with alcohol and get so inebriated they lose all sense of what they're doing but it's still not acceptable.

Only time I personally think it's ok is when hiking in the arse end of nowhere when you're sure nobody is about.

ChaToilLeam · 12/05/2023 21:18

Saw a guy doing it right in the street, middle of the afternoon, in full view of shoppers. Looked not quite the full shilling. I barked a loud “For fuck’s sake” and swiftly moved on.

My point still stands. Far more woman statistically have urinary incontinence than men but funny enough women doing this is very rare and tends to happen in rural areas with no facilities. Again, if men can't walk 15 seconds to a lavatory then they need to wear nappies. Perhaps they can be advertised in the tena lady and slot since it seems very important to tell urinary incontinent women they must be fragrant at all times yet never men.
I don't know a single man that's ever pissed himself in an important meeting at work, at an interview or on a date. Funny how that uncontrollable bladder seems to be manageable then.

Wilberthepig · 12/05/2023 21:29

My in laws live in the country

There are a row of houses on one side,(theirs is in the middle) a road and fields on the other side

At least 5/6 times a day a car will pull up,a man (never a woman) will get out,piss into the hedge and then drive off

It's foul-if they where really desperate,all they have to do is drive an extra 20 seconds and there are woods where they can go without anyone seeing them

But nope,they piss in front of a row of houses where people live

It's disgusting

This is silly. I have never known a women to piss herself in a meeting either. I don't mean to belittle your issues but I have heard of women having little leaks but not a full on pee in a meeting. That has got to be rare. Anyway let's move on, I feel we are getting side tracked into personal issues.

Men should refrain from peeing in public and if they can't hold then find somewhere more discreet.

Also think councils need to step up and supply more toilets

Excited101 · 12/05/2023 21:41

I had this though the window of Starbucks the other day, except the woman was shitting. Towards the window her arse was facing, and out it shot. Shit and piss flowed from her. She stood up, lit a fag and wandered off. Came back for a brief second squat and then wandered off. I can only imagine she was unwell, in a few different ways. Fuck me, it was the worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

louderthan · 12/05/2023 22:31

Urgh. Just no. You don't see women pissing in the street in the middle of the day. Full on male entitlement.

Men are beasts.

Maureen Lipman was on Loose Women today. Said she was on a train recently with a man wanking. She called it vibrating. But wanking.

I saw a man puss up the wall of Waitrose a couple of weeks ago, just by the front door. Then he went in and harassed the lady on the counter for cigarettes, hands all over everything in there. I think he was drunk, definitely not English. Either way he was utterly vile.

What's his nationality got to do with it? Was he holding his passport at the time?

Springissprunging · 12/05/2023 22:52

I kept seeing a man pissing against a wall when I was walking out from guides (I was a leader not a child) and I realised he seemed to always time it for when the pre teen and teen girls were walking out of the building

I called the police about it and reported it but I have no idea if they did anything because it was summer term so we started going out and about on walks so that we could move around the pick up points for the parents because we were worried in case it escalated and one or two of the older girls tended to walk home by themselves
