Hey there, friends! Tom of P-Town here, bringing you another open and honest discussion about kink and sexual health. Today’s topic: watersports, sometimes called “golden showers” or urolagnia. Whether you’re curious, experienced, or somewhere in between, I’m here to offer straightforward, non-judgmental information. The name of the game is exploration and pleasure—but as with any erotic play involving bodily fluids, it’s essential to be informed about possible health risks and ways to reduce them. Let’s dive in.
What Exactly Are Watersports?
For those who are new to the concept, watersports involves sexual arousal or pleasure derived from the act of urinating on—or being urinated on by—a partner, and sometimes being urinated "in" as well. This might happen as part of power dynamics (dominance and submission) or simply as another way to play and bond intimately with a partner. While it’s definitely not everyone’s gulp of tea, plenty of folks enjoy it in a consensual, respectful manner.
Potential Health Risks
1. Transmission of Viruses and Infections Through Contact With Urine
Bacteria: In general, urine from a healthy individual is typically considered relatively sterile. However, if someone has a urinary tract infection (UTI) or sexually transmitted infection (STI) involving the urinary tract, bacteria or viruses can be present in the urine. Organisms such as E. coli or those causing gonorrhea and chlamydia can potentially be transmitted.
Viral Infections: While the risk for HIV transmission through urine alone is extremely low (especially in the absence of blood), some viruses like hepatitis B, CMV and Herpes Simplex can be present in urine. This is why ensuring vaccination (more on that below) is a good harm reduction strategy.
Parasites and Other Organisms: Less common, but it’s possible for certain parasites or other pathogens to enter the picture if there’s any GI or urinary infection present.
2. Drinking Urine
Concentration Matters: Urine is composed of waste products, salts, and toxins your body is discarding. Fresh, well-hydrated urine is mostly water, making it less pungent and intense. But if you (or your partner) are dehydrated, the urine is more concentrated—containing more uric acid and other waste byproducts—and this can be harsh on your stomach and potentially on the kidneys if consumed in large quantities.
Risk of Upset Stomach & Infections: Drinking more concentrated urine may lead to nausea, vomiting, or an upset stomach. If the person producing the urine has an infection, that risk is magnified.
3. Piss Enemas
Gastrointestinal Complications: Introducing urine into the rectum can upset the natural bacterial balance of your digestive tract, increasing the risk of infection or inflammation. Remember, the rectum and colon aren’t typically exposed to the microorganisms present in the urinary tract.
Perforation Risk: As with any type of enema or anal play, inserting anything into your anus incorrectly can lead to tears or damage in rectal tissues. Piss enemas don’t inherently have a higher perforation risk than water enemas, but any time you’re doing enemas for sexual play, you need to be aware of technique, temperature, and volume to avoid accidents.
Harm Reduction Tips
Check In With Your Partner(s)
Consent and comfort are paramount. Talk openly about boundaries, fantasies, and any health conditions before you play. Everyone should feel safe and informed.
Stay Hydrated
If you plan on enjoying watersports, consider staying well-hydrated. This dilutes the urine, making it gentler and less likely to cause discomfort if you’re incorporating taste or ingestion into your play.
Vaccinations
Hepatitis B vaccine- These viruses can be transmitted via bodily fluids, and staying up-to-date on vaccinations is a simple, proactive step for anyone who engages in higher-risk sexual activities. Also if you are immunocompromised and CMV or Herpes Simplex presents a significant threat to you make sure your partner is negative before engaging in this type of play.
Communication About STIs
Get regular STI tests, especially if watersports is part of your routine. Urine can carry bacterial infections like gonorrhea and chlamydia if they affect the urethra. Being informed and transparent about status is essential for everyone’s peace of mind.
Start Slowly and Experiment
If it’s your first time exploring watersports or introducing a new element like drinking or piss enemas, start small. Experimenting with just a few drops, or lower volumes, can help you gauge comfort levels, taste, and potential reactions.
Piss Enemas: Be Extra Cautious
If you decide to try piss enemas, research proper enema techniques—use a safe nozzle or get it right from the source, mind the temperature (lukewarm/fresh is best), and don’t use excessive pressure or volume. Listen to your body, and if something feels off, stop.
Know Your Limits
Some folks enjoy just the warmth and the act of urination on their skin. Others take it further. There’s no “right” or “wrong” way as long as it’s consensual. Pay attention to any signs of discomfort, irritation, or negative physical reaction.
Aftercare
Watersports can be a highly physically and emotionally intimate experience. A nice shower together or solo afterward can be soothing, and gentle antibacterial soap on areas where urine has been in contact (especially eyes or mouth) can reduce the risk of infections. Don’t forget emotional aftercare: discussing how the scene felt, what you liked, and if anything needs to change next time.
Final Thoughts
Watersports can be a fulfilling and powerful way to explore trust, intimacy, and new sensations with your partner(s). As always, the key is enthusiastic consent, open communication, and a little bit of safety know-how. There’s no need to shame or judge if everyone involved is comfortable and aware of potential risks.
If you have specific health concerns—whether it’s about STIs, vaccination status, or unique medical conditions—make sure to talk to a qualified healthcare professional. They can provide the best guidance tailored to your situation.
Stay curious, stay informed, and as always: play safe and have fun!
Until next time,
