Both! More often at some point during the change though.

Joshua never peed on ME, but he did often pee with diaper changes. It usually just trickled down on him.

I just remember my mother was so paranoid that she was going to get peed on she was always holding a towel over them- it was ridiculous, she'd freak when she saw me change him and leave him naked. She even wanted to buy those 'pee tents'. I got pooped on more than peed- we hated disposies (they leaked) thank goodness for Fuzzibunz, the only thing that could contain my son's poops.

Since he peed a lot when the diaper came off it made EC Elimination Communication seem very natural.

I also could tell when he was about to pee as the penis would kinda get bigger looking.... not really an erection, but like the start of one.

As for the pee in the foreskin, I'm not sure I'm following the arguement here- but there is a bit of balloning that happens at the tip of the forskin-- the pressure builds up (the foreskin bulges/balloons a little) and then he pees. This ballooning is actually just fine and helps flush the urine (and if there is any other dirt or poop) OUT, just like it is supposed to do.

I believe I read this from Frank.... but ballooning is also a technicque that can be used when men are in situations (like wartime, natural disaster) when they can't clean as frequently as they like- or water is limited-- to help flush the foreskin area out and keep it cleaner. Which just blows another of the 'myths' that is out there, and a reason why many men in the US military were made (or requested) to be circed. Or sometimes people will say that it makes sense if you live in the desert.

This theory pops up every few months. My intact brother had a tendency to go off when being changed, one time peeing in his own mouth.
My intact son peed on me and himself so many times that I lost count.

Yep, I remember discussing this before. I have 3 intact sons. Ds1 NEVER got me. NEVER. Not one single time. At least as far as I can remember, and I think I'd remember that. lol. Ds#2 peed on me or dh at nearly every diaper change. Ds3 has gotten us sort of randomly. He doesn't pee often, but often enough.
