Peeing in public

Yeah, I noticed. DIfficult to make sense of posts that are out of order.

 

I don’t think I’ve ever peed outside

 

I just peed outside two minutes ago.

 

How’s it feel?

 

The outside part or the peeing part?
Peeing outside is normal for me. Been doing so all my life so there's nothing special about it other than it's convenient and saves resources. Peeing always feels good (except this one time but that's another story). I'm peeing right now writing this as I stand listening to the cacophony of the vast number of different kinds of birds conversing (okay, done peeing, relief feels great, rubbed myself a bit, sat down, looking at it hanging out my shorts leg, having a smoke) joined in chorus by a few crickets, some water splashing in the pond, and the distant drone of tires rolling on pavement. Other than that...

If you've never peed outside, and you're looking for a description of how that feels compared to peeing inside, I suppose that's going to be individual, but for me it's just easier and more relaxing to pee outside. Aim isn't critical, position isn't critical, it can be easily done hands-free (like if you've been working on something and getting right back to it), skip the time it takes to go inside, clean up, and come back out, etc. Or maybe you're out somewhere and finding a bathroom isn't practical. So it feels freeing, and the air can feel great. Or chilly. I don't really think about it so hopefully others will chime in. But in the end, it's like many things, ya kinda hafta do it to know how it feels.

Gotta ask... How old are you and how did you get to that age without ever peeing outside?!?

 

26 and I dunno, I’ve just never had to go pee outside....

 

Wow that blows my mind. I've been peeing outside since I was a tot. I can remember having actual pissing contests with mates when young. Hiking, backpacking/camping, canoeing, hunting, trail riding... How is it avoidable?

 

I’ve always been bladdershy, can’t even pee in the public restrooms

 

I was like that, too. It's some form of insecurity, fear of ridicule, or whatever. I could pee in public restrooms or anywhere as long as there wasn't an audience. You can get over it once you come to terms with the fact that you're grown up, you know who you are, and nobody gives a shit.

I remember an experience I found traumatic, having to pee, going into a public men's room in some stadium to find a big trough crowded with men peeing. I already couldn't handle peeing in a urinal next to another person peeing in an adjacent urinal. That tough was like a scene out of hell.

I didn't want that handicap prevailing over my life, strong as it was. The early stages of fighting it were tough. I'd stare at the wall directly in front of me and try to block out that there were people beside me. I'd pee in spurts, it was impossible to relax and let it flow. The whole time I'd be thinking these guys know. But over time I came to realize that adults have bigger things on their minds than thinking of some stranger's peeing habits. I can pee next to others in urinals without concern now but it's still not entirely comfortable for me.

I can pee outside and not be weirded out by people watching. I usually turn my back to people though. But I've also knowingly turned my back not quite enough so I can be seen while pretending to hide it. Just depends on the audience. When out in the woods or bush, there's no option, everybody pees outside. Solitude is easy. Anxiety shouldn't be a thing. Public land is shared and the amount of use varies. On highly used easy access hiking trails I won't be whipping it out in front of swarms of people. Those kinda sites usually have some kind of facilities within reach. But get further out on harder or more remote trails and the moreso, the fewer people and the greater the opportunity to pee in solitude.

It can be fun to be seen, though. Obviously not whipping it out in people's faces but creatively "getting caught". I'll look for a position so that when people come around a corner or crest a rise, I can be observed. Or get behind a rock but not really behind. It's hard to time but easier with practice. In these cases I will pull my shorts up completely so everything is exposed and they'll see everything before I "realize" it. People tend to be amused, some are ambivalent, but never experienced anyone bothered or upset.

So yeah, you too can go from insecurity to uncaring if you put in enough effort over enough time.

 

I've peed in public many times. Heck when o was drunk off my ass down at the seashore as well when I couldn't find a bathroom when I was in Germany. So it's not a bad thing.
