Drinking pee is more a pleasure than a punishment for some people. If you’re a man who wonders ‘Why do I want to drink my girlfriends’ pee?’ you’re not the only one.

Golden showers/water sports is a popular fetish which is becoming more mainstream. Rather than simply appealing to the BDSM community, golden showers is now often included in more vanilla porn.

Drinking pee is a bodily fluid like any other and for the same reasons a facial, bukkake or cumming in a girl’s mouth may appeal, drinking pee can too. For men who enjoy the activities I’ve just mentioned, drinking pee may still seem a step further than this.

In a way, drinking pee is perhaps a slightly more extreme fetish for some. There’s plenty of reasons why people might think drinking pee is unhealthy. But we’re here to help set the record straight on why drinking pee is popular in bedrooms.

Drinking pee – the facts

Drinking pee happens. Not just if you’re stranded in a desert desperate for water. Or peeing on yourself because of a jellyfish sting and drinking pee for good measure. It happens in the bedrooms of loads of people all the time.

Playing with golden showers is no longer just a thing done in porn videos. Instead it’s something that many people admit enjoying. Urophagia, as it’s properly known, is the voluntary consumption of urine. Whether for sexual reasons, perceived health benefits or just for the hell of it.

The key question most people want to know the answer to is, ‘Is drinking pee unhealthy?’ Well there are different schools of thought on that but Healthline lists the following points in relation to ‘urine therapy.’

Advantages

There are no scientifically proven advantages or benefits to drinking pee. All claims that it can cure all illnesses, improve skin and give other advantages are anecdotal.

Also it’s a myth to think that drinking urine if you’re desperate for water will help, as urine contains salt it’ll likely make you more thirsty.

In small amounts, drinking pee is OK and is unlikely to do any harm.

Disadvantages

It contains toxins which your kidneys have filtered out, these aren’t great for you to ingest.

Drinking pee when on medication can give you a double dose of those meds. This is true for your own pee and other people’s.

There can be bacteria in urine which can turn nasty.

Not sterile – urban myth.

Some people do take drinking pee to a more extreme level where they choose to consume urine on a daily basis in the belief that it has health benefits to it. It isn’t totally unhealthy if done in moderation.

Drinking pee as a sexual fetish

Doing anything as a sexual fetish is fine if it’s a) legal and b) consensual. Drinking pee in moderation if it turns you on really is up to you. Piss play, water sports, golden showers – call it what you will, is undeniably popular.

Most people will have seen porn featuring pee at some stage, whether as a ‘wetting’ video, domination/humiliation or just as a milder feature in an otherwise vanilla scene. Drinking it might seem to push the boat out a bit further to some people but the reasons behind this sexual fetish are fairly simple.

Bodily fluids tend to come under an erotic umbrella. Swallowing semen, milk during lactation, spit and squirting are all deemed as sexual fetishes in themselves. Squirting is thought of as being a kind of female ejaculation which combines vaginal discharge with small traces of urine.

Therefore it seems reasonable that if guys find squirting hot, drinking pee might be the next step. There is proof that squirting is different from urine, although there can be a slight overlap between the two. As the female ejaculate is thought to collect in the bladder and be expelled through the uretha (the pee hole).

Urine can be seen as an erotic thing due to the taboo nature of it. Going to the bathroom is typically a private activity. Growing up, you’re taught that your genitals are private and anything you do in the bathroom is also private. It’s not exactly a social activity although for men using public bathrooms, you might have company when you go to the urinal.

For women however, going to the bathroom is nearly always a private affair. While we might go into the bathrooms with other female friends, we have individual cubicles. Simply due to the increased level of nudity/exposure we experience when peeing versus the more discreet nature of male urination.

The taboo around urine

This taboo nature around urination is partly why golden showers is viewed as erotic. Men and women don’t see each other pee because the activity is typically kept separate. Unless you’re in a relationship where you’re comfortable enough to leave the bathroom door open.

So it goes without saying that when you don’t see something, it becomes a bit naughty. Breaking the taboo of letting someone else see you pee is partly why golden showers appeals to many couples. Wanting to watch a intimate normally private act lets you see your girlfriend exposed. In a way which is beyond the sheer nudity and instead shows a more ‘dirty’ side to things.

Men who enjoy seeing their girlfriend pee may want to engage more directly. Allowing for them to finger her while she’s peeing or perhaps wanting to lick her instead. The combined sensation can prove pleasurable and may appeal to women who like to squirt but are a bit embarrassed by it.

Breaking down the taboo and possible embarrassment allows enjoyment. When your girlfriend pees in front of you it can be a turn on which some men enjoy. For others it might just be a matter of personal necessity.

Domination & Humiliation

Golden showers can form a part of BDSM culture by fulfilling the ideas of domination and humiliation. Urine is sometimes thought of as being a dirty thing or a way of degrading someone. In violent or racist films, the bad guy might piss on the victim as a way of showing their disgust.

Similarly using urine as a kind of degradation and humiliation act can tap into some aspects of the BDSM fetish. It’s common to see dominatrix women pee on their submissives, either into their mouths or on their bodies. Within this particular sexual fetish, men who want to drink pee might refer to it as ‘nectar’ from their ‘goddess.’ They may view it as a kind of worship or an act of obedience.

Between a mistress and slave, drinking pee may be used as a reward or as a punishment. It can be linked into face sitting, bondage and cuckolding. It takes the phrase, “Piss off” to a new level. When done within these dynamics, there is usually a level of preparation involved which makes for a better experience.

Drinking my girlfriends’ pee

If you find yourself wanting to drink your girlfriends’ pee you might feel a bit awkward. After all, drinking urine isn’t something you talk about in everyday life. It’s not a strictly vanilla activity and might be something you feel uncomfortable talking about openly.

But you’re not alone as one of the main reasons people want to do golden showers, is the taboo nature of it. When people know they like the taste of pee or find peeing with a partner erotic, exploring it is natural. Whether people decide to just watch and touch as mentioned earlier or want to taste and drink varies.

Why would I want to drink my girlfriends’ pee? Because it’s naughty, it pushes the limits and lets men be slightly more submissive. If your girlfriend is more dominant, it might be fun for her as the dominant partner to ‘force you’ into drinking her pee. As a punishment or as a reward to get to ‘taste’ her.

Top tips

Drinking pee is a kink which is perfect for BDSM beginners as there is a range of ways to explore it. Often people find that doing golden showers works better during shower sex or with waterproof sheets available to keep clean up minimal.

If you’re playing in the bedroom, investing in waterproof sheets or using puppy pads can help keep it tidy. Whereas playing outdoors or in the bathroom will also save you time when cleaning up. Golden showers during shower sex is a natural combination which can be a good way for beginners to start.

Before doing it, you should aim to drink plenty beforehand to stay hydrated. By having more fluid in your system (non-alcoholic) it will reduce any odour or strong taste to the urine too. Keep away from heavily flavoured drinks and try to stick to water when you’re first trying it out. Unless you want more flavour to it.

As with any kind of sexual fetish, making sure you’re both comfortable and enjoy the act is key. Communicate openly with your girlfriend beforehand and figure out what your soft and hard limits are. If you only want to try a bit of her pee, having her pee into a glass which you can sip from may be best to start off.

Once you begin exploring the world of pee drinking, you’ll raise a smile whenever either of you go to the bathroom…
