“18 college-aged males”

Not a lot of getting up to pee during the night with that group of test subjects. Now repeat for 60 to 80 year old men1

True.
A doctor I had when I was 20 said to stop drinking long before bed to avoid getting up-—even back then. Got more important as I got much older. Swear off the water or have trouble getting back to sleep as millions of men do once they have to get up.

Like those statements about carrying water bottles during city and town walks or bicycle trips——but where are the public restrooms?

Going outside if someone saw him caused a friend of a guy at work to have a “sex offender” record because someone in the distance seeing him who turned him in to the police. That is a horror story.


Johns Hopkins Medicine website:
“...difficulty getting back to sleep after waking up at night, a condition known as sleep maintenance insomnia. While most people wake up during the night, a significant portion of the population struggles to fall back asleep. A 2010 study found that about 43% of those who woke up three or more times a week had trouble resuming sleep.”

An aside in a rock music writer’s book said he noticed at football and baseball games the lines for the women’s rest rooms were always short and the ones for men stretched out a long distance every time.
