Is it difficult for females to pause mid-stream while urinating?

Not difficult. Especially if they’ve been practicing their kegels.

You ask if its easier… we have no way of knowing how to compare. But it is pretty difficult, the er, um fuller, the harder.

Easy as cereal.

Yes if I get into deep thought this happens to me and I have to be “Oh self open the flood gates”.

I do it for funsies =)
Nope, it’s not difficult at all.

Nope- it is easy. ;)
However- most of us are not able to write our name in snow. Guys have all the fun!

I have no trouble stopping mid-stream.

I should add that I find it hard and sometimes painful. I pee outside a lot.

You should have asked if guys had trouble not if the ladies didn’t.

It’s not difficult.

@johnpowell Oh, well, if we are talking about peeing outside that is an entirely different story ;) Okay, not really. In fact, It is almost mandatory to be able to stop the stream when peeing outside, it helps keep the feet out of danger.

@tinyfaery :: I have talked to my male friends about it and know their answer. Sorry that I didn’t ask my sister, mom, and my girlfriend.

Not at all, when I was a kid I used to get bored a lot, when I went to the bathroom I’d try to pee the rhythm to Christmas songs.

Notably, Jingle Bells.

TMI?

Too many people are watching this now.

Awkward.

Not difficult. If a woman has entered menopause, her PC muscles could lose their tone unless they do Kegel exercises as pointed out by @laureth . These are important after childbirth too for the same reason.

@asmonet – I admire your appreciation of catchy Christmas tunes.

I’ve never tried. BRB

It isn’t hard at all.

I’m very surprised that everyone thinks it’s so easy! My poor, tiny bladder.

@toomuchcoffee911: ...See your username for more information on your condition.

Not difficult for me.

Yes, it’s mostly easy unless you’ve been drinking lots to have the full bladder they told you to have for a renal ultrasound and then they make you wait and wait. I had to go a little or burst. That stream did not want to stop! And then when I was free to go, it didn’t want to start!

is she aiming at your face or chest?

After three children, yes. Before that it was no problem.

@johnpowell
You need to strengthen your PC muscles as well. Men have them also. One should be able to stop and start urination at will. Makes your erections harder and firmer as well and helps you control when you come. And it makes your orgasm more intense.

nope, you flex your PC muscles..

It’s not hard. If I sneeze or laugh while “mid-stream,” as you put it, I stop without even meaning to.

i can’t believe I just shared that with all of fluther! but there it is.

@La_chica_gomela You stop if you sneeze while peeing? It comes out even quicker for me! lol there, I shared so you don’t have to feel so bad :)

TMI alert. Sometimes when I cough, I can’t help but pee. :(

What @SeventhSense said.

Tried. Can’t stop the wheels once they start turning. My bladder is a separate life force.

No not difficult at all.

This works brilliantly for both sexes.
For men: Harder and longer lasting boners
For women: Puts some snap back in that trap.

Very easy, as a matter of fact I stop mine 4 or 5 times every time I go. It strengthens the muscles.

@casheroo: Yeah, exactly. I guess because the vast majority of my sneezes happen when I’m not in the bathroom, I have a habit of tightening my muscles so I don’t accidentally pee my pants while sneezing. I never think about it, except when I am peeing.

@johnpowell
And this isn’t the first time I wondered this as well because it’s not the first time you mentioned it. Any reason why all of your bathroom habits seem to be outside?

@La_chica_gomela Oh, well I’m pregnant so a sneeze means a change of pants. LOL.

Does mrpowell ever respond to his posts?
