Etymology 1

From Middle English piren (“to peer”), from or related to Saterland Frisian pierje (“to look”), Dutch Low Saxon piren (“to look”), West Flemish pieren (“to look with narrowed eyes, squint at”), Dutch pieren (“to look closely at, examine”), which could all be related to the root of English blear. Or, possibly from a shortening of appear.

   • 1999 August 22, “Re: Swimming after eating”, in alt.folklore.urban‎^[2] (Usenet):

     As was the caveat about peeing in a pool. Of course, peeing in a pool wasn't dangerous to the person ... If you peed in a pool, and you were carrying the polio virus, presumably *other* people were put at risk, not the peer (pee-er?).

   • 2000 August 29, “Re: 32 month old urinating in his room! HELP!”, in alt.parenting.solutions‎^[3] (Usenet):

     SOunds^[sic] like you've already broken him quite well, if he's peeing when disciplined. Pretty sad. He's not a dog, not that treating a dog like this is any better either. You've turned your child into a submissive peer.

   • 2003 October 11, “Re: do female's "mark" their territory?”, in rec.pets.dogs.behavior‎^[4] (Usenet):

     Submissive peeing, on the other hand, IS related to anxiety. But submissive peeing is not marking. A submissive peer is generally a very submissive dog.
