Urine comes out sterile, so I'd say peeing in the bath is the least of your worries.


Pools are chlorinated, which helps a great deal...

Which leaves swimming in the sea, with all the raw sewage and various other pollutants, as the major concern.

I'd say public pool

They are all unhygienic, but the pool at least has cleaning agents to prevent diseases being transmitted. It doesn't stop you catching veruccas getting in and out though.

pee in the bath, remember you are actually sitting in it.

swimming in a public pool

Public pool?

Public pool - disinfected with chlorine.
The sea is unhygienic maybe because of the multiple animals that live in it and the annoying salt.
Pee is acidic and sterile, so it isn't unhygenic per se, but it is gross.

Probably the sea, alot would depend on which one but I've been in some with floating debris etc.

I'd say public pool,used to be the sea,but not so sure these days.

recon its swimming in the sea
after all, that's where everyone's pee [and other things] ends up right?

I know this isnt part of your question but indulge me please..I think the most unhygienic thing to do is wipe from back to front. Just my opinion.

I think a public pool, can you imagine how many little kids pee in it? Bump their knee on the edge and bleed? Spit? Now that I think about it I don't want to get in a pool again. Its like taking a bath with a bunch of people (and who knows when they last bathed)!

Omg whats up with these peeing in the bath questions ive seen 3 in 2 days LOL ermmmm swimming in the english sea ERGH its discusting everythings in there from puke poo urine dead animals take me to the cuban ocean any day!!!

Swimming in the sea. Public pools have chlorine in it to atac at the bacteria. Ur only urine is that bad for you in that dosage but the sea well thats just swimming with bacteria.

If you looked at the sea where I stay you would say the sea I stay 5 minutes away from sewage plant. and the sewage gets dumped in to the sea 40miles out but it sure does come back in with the tide.

in the bath, I should think --it's an enclosed space with no filtering.

Swimming in the sea should be fine unless it's being pumped full of sewage.

Probably the sea, because all the other creatures do there stuff in there. But pools have filters and chlorine to clean the water.

So yeah, no surfing for me!

I think Swimming pools are minging basically the water goes round everyones private bits and then the same water splashes you in the face and in your mouth its disgusting! I havent been swimming for years!

Well pee ( or as we say in england, wee) is sterile so it isn't unhygienic as it can help heel cuts...however, I don't fancy the thought of sitting in my own pee while in the bath!!!!

urine is generally sterile. It is possible to drink urine without any ill effect.

a public pool will contain chlorine, or similar disinfectant agents

seawater would generally be good for you.........except we tend to dump loads of raw sewage and chemical pollutants in the sea..

definite answer - 'swimming in the sea'

Swimming in the sea is the most unhygienic out of the three choices you have given.

Urine is sterile and only starts to decompose once it leaves the body, so it's relatively clean stuff.

Swimming pools are loaded with chlorine to kill germs, so they're actually fairly clean. I've never caught any sickness from swimming.
