Urophilia is getting sexual pleasure from urine and urination. This can be from getting urinated on, urinating on others, drinking the urine, or simply watching others do these things. Urophilia may also be called “golden showers” or “watersports”.

Urine is quite sterile so there generally are few health risks associated with urophilia, although cleaning up can be quite messy. Large plastic sheets or using the bathroom are the way to go to avoid messy cleanups afterwards.

Shirley Manson, lead singer of the popular rock band Garbage, was quoted in an interview as saying “I hate boys who are frightened of pee and shit and menstrual blood… I want a man who will let me pee in his belly button”. The Garbage song When I Grow Up contains the lyrics “Happy Hours/Golden Showers”.
