Urophilia , also known as undinism , is a sexual predilection for urine . The process of urinating or the urine itself is experienced as erotic and sexually stimulating . Also Urophagie , the pleasure by oral ingestion of urine (so-called "pee" ) can be connected thereto.

Colloquially, the preference to incorporate urine into sexual games is often referred to as urophilia. In the corresponding scene, the names pee (often also abbreviated with "ns" ), watersports , pissing , peeing , golden shower , golden waterfalls and wet games are common.

Urophilia as a sexual practice

Classification according to ICD-10
F65.9 Unspecified disorders of sexual preference
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

According to the medico-psychological definition, urophilia can be classified as a disorder of sexual preference ( paraphilia ) in the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) under the code number F65.9, the unspecified disorders of sexual preference .

In the context of sexual medical diagnostics , however, such disorders are only understood as pathological and in need of treatment if the fetish serves as a complete substitute for sexuality in partnership, sexual satisfaction is difficult or appears impossible without the use of the fetish, and the person concerned experiences corresponding suffering .

In the discipline of psychoanalysis , urophilia was first described at the beginning of the 20th century by Isidor Sadger and Hans Christoffel . It was later proposed to define a urethral phase as a normal part of infantile sexuality .

distribution

Such practices can be practiced by people of any gender. The social acceptance of the practice, like other practices affecting body excretions, is rather low. Accordingly, few people come out as urophile, so there are no reliable scientific sources for statistical distribution.

Risks

From a medical point of view, handling fresh urine from healthy people is problem-free. The low concentration of bacteria in the urine is due to bacteria living in the urethra; these bacteria are usually harmless and non-pathogenic for healthy people. Contact with stored urine should be avoided because of the rapid onset of contamination of the liquid.

It is possible to become infected with diseases by ingesting urine from a sick person. Infection with hepatitis A is a particular risk ; this virus is transmitted in higher concentrations when foreign urine is ingested. According to Deutsche AIDS-Hilfe, sexual practices involving urine are "harmless as far as HIV is concerned (as long as there is no blood involved)". The AIDS -auslösende HI virus (HIV) "was indeed detected in urine, feces, saliva, sweat and tear fluid, but only in a very small amount which is not sufficient for infection." In the case of a bladder infection ( cystitis ) is at this Practice acute risk of infection. Urine from sick people and those who regularly take medication should generally not be consumed. A conversation with a general practitioner or a specialized urologist can clarify whether it is safe to consume the urine of a person who has certain diseases or is taking medication.

art

Historical illustration of urophilia

In the arts, the description and representation of people who urinate occurs over the centuries and across different styles. Rembrandt , for example, created the drawing of a peasant woman urinating and Picasso also used corresponding motifs in some of his pictures. In the erotic photography this subject was present from the outset.

In the erotic, fictional and pornographic literature, the act of urinating is represented, among other things, Marquis de Sade describes urophilia in the work The 120 Days of Sodom . Urinating appears as a humiliating element for victims in other contexts as well. An example is a violent scene from the book The jury of John Grisham , in which the perpetrators urinate on their victim after the fact. Frank Zappa describes in the song Bobby Brown (Goes Down) that the protagonist Bobby Brown has a preference for Golden Shower . Golden Shower is also the name of a track on the album Skills in Pills by the band Lindemann and the Austrian group Ilsa Gold .

Urophilia and BDSM

Urophilia and urophagia per se are not BDSM practices. Urine has a multi-layered meaning in the context of BDSM - if it is used as a practice. The sexologist Denson, for example, differentiates between urosadism and uromasochism as subgroups of urophilia . All meanings have in common the demonstration of the superiority and / or control of the dominant partner ( top ) over the controlled partner ( bottom ). This ranges from mutual explicit consent ( consensual ) to forcing the dominant partner to implement it as a sexual practice. In addition, there are various objectives for the implementation of sexual practices using urine:

  • Humiliation - the obvious demonstration of the inferiority or helplessness of the controlled partner.
  • Punishment - in the classic sense of a punishment .
  • Objectification - the controlled partner is reduced to the function of an object (here: the urinal ).
  • Reward - in the sense of a classic reward, either because the controlled partner perceives this as a pleasure-increasing practice or because the controlled partner is given the opportunity to receive something personal (here: the urine) from the controlling partner.
  • Control - the retention of urine caused by the controlled partner or control of excretion by the controlling partner.

Hanky ​​code

In the " hanky code " used by some homosexuals , a yellow handkerchief stands for urophilia. The trouser pocket in which it is carried gives information about the preferences regarding this practice, whereby the left back pocket stands for the active urophil ("donate urine"), analogously the right back pocket for the passive partner ("receive urine").

There may be a connection with coprophilia or coprophagia , which relate to the handling or ingestion of feces (so-called "(natural) caviar").
