Oh lovely, can't say I've ever see anyone do it and I hope I don't.
Neither have I but one of the men I used to work beside, was in a flat with an outside loo when he first got married. His neighbour came to the door and asked if she could pee in their sink because they had visitors

Disgusting filthy person! What was wrong with her using the outside lavatory?
Probably too cold! Many receptacles were used in days gone by that we would be disgusted with now. for some it was a pail in the corner. The chamber pot was used for centuries so a sink with running water might have been considered a luxury LOL
TBH I don't think it was any more acceptable to urinate in the kitchen sink then than it is now.
When people used chamber pots they were emptied well away from the kitchen, and in the manure heap on farms.
It wasn't disgusting if hygiene was still maintained as much as possible.

It probably wasn't. Mining villages and such like had a row of houses and perhaps a couple of outside toilets (with or without doors) serving the whole row. Not so easy then as it is now.
