I got a letter from the government the other day
opened it, read it

Penises don't accrue body fat (oh would that it were not so!) so they'd be denser than water and sink

my girlfriend asked me if my dick sinks or floats in the tub and now i can't stop wondering. i don't have a bathtub to check though. can someone with a massive hog please conduct this test and report your findings?

if i sit down to pee mine uncoils in the toilet water and gently rests on top

if i remember my high school chemistry the ideal way to scientifically test this is to

1- fill the bathtub with vegetable oil
2- get in the tub &fully submerge your body in the oil with goggles and a snorkel
3- mark the level of oil in the tub with your body in it. write this down in your copy book
D) begin pissing

in THEORY the piss will rise to the top. then see if the fluid level rises above the mark. record your findings.

If I tighten my abdominal muscles and suck my stomach in as hard as I can I will be significantly reducing the size of my abdomen and the amount of space occupied by the organs therein, and that reduction doesn't require making GBS threads out an organ or ballooning out above or below the sucked in gut, meaning things are being "compressed".
you are simply giving your lungs less room to expand
what being made mostly of water entails is that on various scales most of what you are is membranes full of water with stuff floating in it

I peed in the tub, I can confirm it didn't rise, but the water did turn yellow! My hypothesis was correct!

It floats. Quite amusingly, to be honest.

I think someone with a large enough tub ought to try this. regretfully I must withdraw myself as mine is only ankle height.

if my pee transmuted into gold when it left my body then would the water rise?

Classic literature can answer your question:

"He foresaw his pale body reclined in it at full, naked, in a womb of warmth, oiled by scented melting soap, softly laved. He saw his trunk and limbs riprippled over and sustained, buoyed lightly upward, lemonyellow: his navel, bud of flesh: and saw the dark tangled curls of his bush floating, floating hair of the stream around the limp father of thousands, a languid floating flower.”

James Joyce really did have all the answers, especially about dick buoyancy and piss stream pressure. Entire manuscripts written about what a swampy rear end in a top hat tastes like. He could sniff your fart on a Wednesday and tell you what you ate for Sunday dinner. Truly remarkable.

my bladder is so powerful that the pee is actually compressed to a smaller volume inside of it, so yes in my case the water level would rise

nothing is that powerful you cant compress pee to a smaller volume

Cum isn't real. You were hallucinating and now we need to change your dosage.

Well, there's your problem!
Pee in a full bladder is probably at a different pressure than free range pee, also deeper in the tub with even more pressure. Releasing it to 1 atmosphere will make the level rise.

Piss cannot be compressed into a smaller volume no matter how hard you try

Okay, but look at it his way. Say you have a big ol water heater and you fill it up with piss and throw it into a pool. It will displace water based on size, not weight. If you then release all the piss from the water heater into the pool you now suddenly have 200 liters of piss in the water as well as the original displacement of the water heater that's not going anywhere.

The bladder is the piss filled water heater in this analogy.

In a bathtub, most people are resting on the bottom of the tub. Releasing the piss makes you less buoyant, but this doesn't matter because you're not floating. So pissing doesn't displace LESS water. The water level rises.

Say you're in a pool, floating on your back so part of you is above water. Pissing in this scenario makes you less dense, causing you to rise out of the water, displacing less water, equal to the amount you are releasing. The water level stays the same.

Imagine you're holding a bowling ball under water with you, and then you release it. In a tub, it would roll to the side and the water level obviously would not change. In a pool, you would suddenly be able to float much easier. The bowling ball is your piss.

Both of these scenarios are ignoring any slight volume change to your body from pissing, and also any slight change to water density by releasing a liquid with a different density into it.

This is a very thorough and easy to understand answer. Thank you for explaining it this way! You should start drinking more water if you're pissing bowling balls, though. Ouch!
