Learning to Pee Standing Up: One Woman’s Journey
Yahoo! Style ^ | July 22, 2015 | Nora Crotti

Posted on 07/28/2015 11:15:01 AM PDT by goodwithagun

Public peeing for people with penises is generally no big deal. There’s no sitting involved, no squatting; no dirty toilet seats to deal with and no pulling one’s pants down to one’s ankles. It’s pretty unfair, when you think about it. Jeeeez thanks a lot, anatomy!

But if the Malcolm in the Middle theme song taught us anything, it’s that life is unfaaaair. So, in an attempt to even out the playing peeing field for vagina-owners, a company called Stand Up has invented some nifty little contraptions that allow women to piddle without sitting — or, as Stand Up puts it, “boycott the squat” and “join the urination.” So clever.

Of course, this discriminates against reptiles, who have to urinate (and do everything else) through their cloacas. When will someone address this unfairness?

I worked for several years with gal who could do this ...without any extra equipment so to speak.

She wasn’t shy about it at all and since we had only one bathroom and an unlocked door I have walked in on her.

She would just giggle and explain it.

Her other job was working as a glamour beer girl promoting stuff at bars and restaurants.

Think Swedish Bikini Team.

Problem was the women’s rooms at a lot of places had huge lines while the men’s rooms were less crowded.

So she and her other team mates figured out how to use the men’s rooms.

There are urinals for women. A bit of a straddle, but they don’t have to sit down.

Anyone who has ever flown has likely used a restroom on an airplane. I suspect that the ratio of #1 to #2 is about 25:1, which means that guys don’t have to sit down..and most guys, on an airplane..well..spray....often all over. Which, if you’re a woman ( as related my my wife and two daughters) means you have to do some cleaning and be really careful before sitting down. So why don’t they have urinals on airplanes? You could probably get TWO bathrooms with just urinals in the space that it takes for just ONE regular john. Which would be beneficial to both MEN and WOMEN....more, and cleaner, restrooms

Ladies, try not to get it on the seat, or the walls.

And women can cut their piss off like that! Whap! And not another drop come out!

Men, have you ever tried to stop your piss? You get eight hernias, Jack!

Anyone who has gone to the theater, and then to use the facilities during the intermission..has see this. The lines into both the men’s and women’s rest room are long. The men are usually done quickly..the women’s line creeps along..it takes them longer. When the lights blink to return to seats, all the women still waiting look around nervously, then gather up their courage, and they all run into the men’s room to use the stalls..

My friends and I still laugh about that crazy astronaut from years ago.
e.g. "...Don't make me put on my outer space diaper and drive across the country to knock some sense into you!..."

WTH does this have to do with FR?

Ask again when ObamaCare mandates that these devices be distributed for free.

Yes, but... No matter how you shake, nor how you prance...

The last drop always hits your pants.

It’s called a FUDD, and they’re issued to female soldiers.

This is ironic since liberal women are known for training their men to pee sitting down.

If you shake more than twice then you are playing with yourself.

I visited a place in Peru call Pacha Camac which an ancient Inca site with numerous buildings in partial reconstruction. Well being pretty drunk on Crystal beer I decided to relieve myself behind one of the better preserved Inca buildings. When finished I walked around to the front I saw a a sign that said "Templo Del Sol" - I desecrated the Temple of the Sun!!!!! I have been cursed ever since.

So she and her other team mates figured out how to use the men’s rooms.

Back in 1950 I had a summer job between years at college. I worked in a steel mill. It was soon enough after WW II that many of the men I worked with had been there during the war.

I was informed that the mill had hired a lot of women during the war because of so many men being in the Army. The mill put up a restroom for the women, but it was a long way away from the work site, so the women decided they weren't going to walk that far. They were simply going to use the men's restroom. So they bellied up to the urinals, pinched things together, and peed right alongside the men.

Fortunately for me, by the time I got there the mill was again an all-male environment. I'm not sure I could have taken having a women standing at the next urinal
