        Just make sure you’re sitting when you’re practicing… unless you like having your urine splash absolutely everywhere.

        Just attempting to stop really. Then holding it for a few seconds and going again. You don’t want to actually cut it off and stop/walk away, believe that is unhealthy. I had someone recommend doing such exercises when I was ~4 years old because I would sometimes still wet the bed. They seemed to believe it could help build up a greater control for it that may prevent such from happening. I haven’t tried it in a really long time though. Been 30 years, amazing what one can remember from early years but I can’t remember much from last year.

      Presumably there are exceptions, but generally speaking women can and men can’t, at least not without a lot of pain.

    I didn’t know I could do this until I had to learn how to use a self-cath, and the woman telling me said to start going, then stop, go to put the cath in, and then drain my bladder the rest of the way.

    I said “I… don’t know if I can do that. I’ve never tried.” Turns out I could, and it honestly wasn’t difficult. But over 35 years on the planet, and it never occurred to me to try stopping mid-stream.

    This is how I’ve won every fight I’ve encountered.

        Exactly. And talk about how good it feels when you do it. If you can do it with a boner then you’re basically God.
