In my youth, I could easily pee 2 beer cans (24 fluid ounces), which I think is 700+ ml. However, age has taken its toll, and 18 fl. oz. is about all I can do now. I think that's less than your capacity.
There are people out there whose personal best is even less. Just like there are petite noses and tiny feet, there are also small bladders. And some of us have lousy control and will start to leak the moment our capacity is reached.
Don't feel bad about your bladder size. It's probably about average, and it doubtless gets you through the day with few embarrassing moments.
I find I can hold more if I drink plain water. Alcohol and caffeine seem to be an irritant to me, and I need to pee more frequently when I drink them.
