Have you peed in the pool since you were old enough to know it's wrong?

Uuuuuuhhhhhh!! It’s wrong??? Damn, wish you would have told me sooner. I thought that was what they put them chemicals in there for.

lol,is it the chlorine that stings your eyes or is it the pee?

No, I can hold it now.

That’s why I don’t swim in public pools.

No, but the ocean is a different story.

Didn’t you know that’s what the gutters are for in pools? ;)

I know a ton of people who have.
I don’t, but what’s the big deal? It’s sterile.

amazonqueenkate's avatar

Yes, but only because I know all the gross little kids who swim in the pool I do do it too. (Justification in the form of revenge!)

If you don’t, realize that you’re swimming in a pool where others have. So I figure why bother not? This is primarily why I no longer swim in public pools.

I’m not proud to admit it but yes, I have urinated in pools after I was old enough to know better. It’s not like I make a habit of doing it every time I’m in a pool but I’ve slipped on an occasion or two. Maybe I never got past being too lazy to seek out the proper facilities to relieve myself.

tehrani625's avatar

yes, Just because all the others are doing it. I would not jump off a bridge with them though.

So that’s why the water is suddenly warm when I swim behind some people!
No I don’t do such things – just because it’s chlorinated doesn’t mean it’s right. Especially now with companies cutting back to save money there might not be enough chemicals in the water to counter your weak bladder.

Even if it’s not harmful it’s as bad as farting on a packed train carriage!

The only excuse is if the Pool Toilets are grim or full of pervs hoping you drop your soup like my local – eww.

AstroChuck's avatar

But it’s so convenient.

kullervo's avatar

by the way I meant soap – incase you thought I was in the habit of eating a warm chicken soup in the pool changing rooms.

ahankes's avatar

I do it all the time.
