URINATE / pee (general)
This is the sign I recommend parents use with their children (both boys and
girls).
Touch the letter "P" to your nose while puffing out your cheeks a bit.
Note: it is the tip of the middle finger that touches the tip of the nose.
Note: I used to use this sign a lot with my kids when they were real
little.
I'd look at them with raised eyebrows and sign "NEED PEE?" to ask them if
they needed to "go potty?"
Note: If you don't puff out this sign, it can be used to mean "p_nis." (The
male bodypart).
It is very much context based. If someone signs, MY "P-hand to the
nose" HURTS -- well then you can assume that either his organ is hurting him
or perhaps the process of peeing is painful. If that person signs I
NEED "P-hand to the nose" -- you can generally assume they mean that
they need to urinate.
This is the sign I used with my kids as they were growing up to ask if they
needed to pee.

URINATE / pee:
Okay, so, this version is specifically for "guys." I don't use it
with my kids or everyday conversation. I'd only use it if I needed to
specifically describe the act of a male taking a wiz. I thought about
not including it here, but since many interpreters, social workers, and or
group home workers need to know signs like this I figured I'd include it
here.
Take an index finger and hold it a bit upright then point it down and
forward as you puff out your cheeks.
I do not consider this sign to be very polite nor very useful.
