Why do we have to pee more often when it's cold outside?

I hope I'm not being too gross here, but when outside, why do men pee ON trees or IN bodies of water like a lake?

  • I don't get it. Why not just in a private place, why ON it? And why pollute the water that animals and people might have to drink from?

  • Answer:

    Trees provide some shelter from being completely exposed visually and exposed to the wind (don't want your own pee blowing back on you)...plus trees are a lot like urinals! And guys are used to peeing IN something so I think it just becomes easier to focus on the task if you are peeing like you usually do.. somewhat sheltered and not directly on the ground... as for peeing in the water... again... think toilet and you will probably find the answer... May also be because they don't want other people to step in it or it could be the splash of the urine when it hits the ground can wet their pant leg... that's emberassing...

Peeing on or at the roots of plants actually feeds then nitrogen and potassium. I urinate outside very often when I am hiking and fishing. I always urinate at least 20 feet from the streams so that the nutrients (waste) can be filtered through the earth and used by the plants. FYI: urine is sterile when it leaves the body. hmmm.. I didn't answer your question at all... oh well. I see someone else had a good proper answer anyway!
