We do? I haven't noticed this personally so it sound anecdotal, unless you have some source saying otherwise.

That said, if I had to guess, i'd say its a similar mental trigger to how running water gives a lot of folks the urge to pee.

I said "we" because I have known plenty of people who also relate to my question.

Sounds like some kind of neural cross connection, possibly similar to how some people get the urge to sneeze when they see a bright light. My brother has that, strongly. I have it, but weakly. Neither of us, as far as I know, have that pee sensation thing you describe.
