    Your bladder is just a muscle-bag that stretches and collapses like a balloon depending on its volume, so pressure from the urine wouldn’t change much in zero-g vs normal g.

    Have you used, for example, one of those camp showers? Water is heavy. Gravity builds up pressure fairly quickly, and it’s going through a pretty small pipe.

        Urethras are all narrow, regardless of their enormous meat casing, n’est-ce pas?
