Women are expressing frustration about men keeping water bottles by their beds to use as pee bottles instead of going to the bathroom. This habit has sparked viral conversations, with many sharing stories about partners who use this approach as a way to avoid leaving bed at night.
Hannah Thear, 25, shared on TikTok that she once believed it was normal for men to urinate in bottles. She explained that her partner would leave the bottles for days unless she emptied them. Her post resonated with others, as many women described similar experiences with their partners.
Comments flooded in, with some recalling exes who used the same method. One commenter expressed disbelief, saying they didn’t realize how common this behavior was.
Some men openly admit to using a pee bottle and defend it as convenient. A TikTok user asked if other men kept bottles by their beds for nighttime use. Responses ranged from casual acceptance to jokes about how easy it is for men to do this.
Ryan Odom, another TikTok user, shared a clip showing a collection of Gatorade bottles his grandfather allegedly used as pee bottles. He explained that his grandfather avoided getting out of bed by using the bottles instead.
Others cited health reasons for adopting this habit. One Reddit user described how their partner struggled with insomnia and claimed getting up at night made it difficult to fall back asleep. While this explanation gained some sympathy, most commenters called the practice unhygienic and inappropriate.
Many people voiced disgust over the idea of leaving pee bottles uncleaned. Some described it as a major relationship dealbreaker. One woman shared how she caught her boyfriend using a pee bottle next to their bed, calling it “gross” and unacceptable.
While some argue that health issues might justify the behavior, others insist that such habits require medical attention or better solutions. Comments across platforms emphasized that keeping pee bottles at home, especially in shared spaces, crosses a line for cleanliness and respect.
