Am I the only one here to wear diapers when perched in a tree & hunting?

Lots of paranoia here. I think I will just go back to lurking.

I saw a deer biologist on one of the hunting shows discuss this topic on a hunting show years ago. He said while deer can definitely smell urine they cannot tell the difference between types of urine. He said a human peeing on the ground would not raise any more suspicion then a person dumping fox or skunk urine on the ground. There is enough urine on the ground in the woods that a little human urine will not cause a problem.
I had some family NC point out that deer(does) were visiting their yard and the point of entry. I couldn't hunt the property at the time and it was out of season, anyway. I was there alone at one point and decided to investigate that entry and find what I could see. Didn't go far into the woods and had to take a leak. I did so just to see how they would respond to it. According to the home owner, they never saw those deer again. The human diet is usually high in sodium, whereas wild animals don't suffer this as their food is natural. Human urine, along w/human scent is easily detectable by wildlife if it hasn't been broken down by weather or time or covered over. I usually come to ground level to take a leak and cover it afterword. If I just can't hold it any longer,
sometimes I'll go from my stand. But only in areas that deer sightings haven't shown progress.

o.k serious question.
peeing out of the stand once or twice may or may not harm your chances but what about 30-40-50 times through coarse of the season? personally ,I am capable of holding it for several hours if need be, so it is not really an issue. if it was ,I believe I would just pack a pee bottle. better to err on the side of caution (imo, to each their own) ,then to ruin my hunt.

We spend a lot of time in the woods, scouting and exploring. My wife did joke about wearing those Depnds once when she was pregnant. Relieving yourself in the woods is more of a problem for the gals than for us. And when they're pregnant they have to pee about every ten minutes.

QUOTE=kidoggy;4228339] none of my comments were an attack ,persay. only meant to out him.[/QUOTE]
I reread the thread. I didn't see anywhere that kidoggy questioned or mocked anyones sexuality.
Was it edited or deleted out? If not, then it was very obvious to me that kidoggy was "outing" the OP as a troll, which he is/was!,... nothing to do with anyones sexuality. I would think anyone with a bit of common sense would have read into it the same way. But that's not what works for the cause "in these times" is it?
Apparently I am also missing all this egregious display of harshness that seems to be rampant on the site. The thing I am seeing, is an abundance of thinned skinned members that seem to have a pretention for their delicate dispositions.
As for the OP, No I didn't take it as a serious question. So that also negates the overall ~legitimacy~ of it for me. That's the reason that I did not even respond to it at all.
I am starting to remember why my post count has just topped 100 in Four years.
