There are two types of people in the world. People who pee in the shower and those that lie about not peeing in the shower.

Yes, I also pee in the sink.
Of course, and occasionally I also poop in the shower. It's always funny to stomp it down the drain.
There was a campaign in Brazil urging people to pee in the shower to save water.
Yes, like a normal person π
Only if Iβm already in the shower to wash myself lol.
I've done plumbing work before, it's all pipes, people. Piss to your heart's content, you're not hurting anything
in your country*
In any country, I would think.
Even where grey water systems are deployed for water re-use, shower water /is/ normally collected, but piss would be so diluted as to be a negligable contaminant. A shower uses roughly 70 litres of water. An average human bladder voiding is 400ml, so that works out at 0.57% piss in the grey water collected in a single shower. Negligable.
Piss away.

There are 2 kinds of people, people who pee in the shower and liars.
I have a slow drain so the shower ends up with a shallow puddle by the end. So, no, I don't like standing in a puddle of my own pee.
But otherwise, pipes is pipes. No judgement here.
Snake ur drain bby <3
Have you cleaned out your drain?
The shower is the only place i pee and as for poo, well that's a story for another time....
No, because itβs right there next to the toilet and I donβt want to get pee on my feet.
Strange story for you.. I had very bad athletes foot for many years. All the off the shelf powders and creams didn't help at all. Someone told me to pee on my feet to cure it, I didnt believe them but tried it anyways. Worked amazingly quickly. Occasionally I do it still but not all the time. Haven't had athletes foot in over 25 years... I'm so sorry for the story. π
You still pee on your feet occasionally as some kind of preventative you're saying?
And they're always eager to help out other people too.
Not in my shower. But in other people's, sure.
Our shower drains into the grey water tank and then to our fruit tree irrigation line, so... Of course yes.

I've done the maths!

shower yes, bath no
Hot tub?
Depends on the dilution rate.
anything chlorinated is fair game
Yep
