if you were asked to urinate in the shower to save water... would you do it.... why or why not...?

Update:

it saves water because if u urinate while showering the water to move it down the drain is the water u clean yourself with... also it takes a small amount to do this not the 1.5 gallons most toilet waste every flush... whether you only urinate a tiny amount or emptied your whole bladder along with 5 banana shaped feces from your rectum

    Sure. After all, urine is more or less sterile and it's just going down the drain.

    I'm not exactly sure how this would save water, though, wouldn't a waterless urinal be better, or at home following the rule "if it's brown, flush it down but if it's yellow, let it mellow".)

    Sure, I do it anyway. Why? It saves water, and I live in a state with water problems. It doesn't have a downside, except psychologically if you have some kind of aversion to urine. Remember, urine is sterile. It can't hurt you.

    Well if you did that in the shower wouldn't you still be wasting water? If the shower was on it wouldn't really be helping much. I suggest doing it with the water off.

    i already do.. i mean you're in the place to get clean and if you gotta pee.. pee.. you're in the middle of cleansing.

    i feel it's silly and rather narcissistic to jump out and urinate in the proper faculty.. i mean.. when i do each time i always wash off anyways.

    cleanliness is next to... :D

    Sure, it just goes down the drain with the rest of the water.
