Just made this comment in the same thread:

>When it initially exits the body, it is sterile. As time goes on, like you say, it accumulates germs.

>As a kid I had this book and recall a little tidbit in there claiming even Mahatma Gandhi may have begun the day by drinking his pee for whatever reason, but that it was "okay" because he drank it so soon after peeing that it was still sanitary. While it is very unlikely that Gandhi drank his own pee, as far as I'm aware, most of the other things they say about its properties are accurate. Even Nathan For You, one of my favorite shows, made a joke about this a few seasons back, for a shameless plug.

Pee is sterile, but just speaking as someone who gets squeamish about bodily fluids, I have a hard time believing that a germaphobe would be okay with something like that. At the same time, however, psychologically, it does make sense in a twisted way, therefore the reason for the second paragraph that listed off other examples of twisted fetishes that are polar opposites of what a person stands up and claims to believe publicly.
