So, first masks for all, and next catheters.

Weirdest thing ever happened in Ca in the 80’s.
I’m in a bar at the urinal and a girl walks into the one beside me splits her lips and whizzes away!

If this is not awkward enough she looks over the partition and says “You having a little trouble getting started?”

OMG! people are insane!

If they ban urinals, I will make it my life’s mission to 1)Put the seat down. 2)Pee. 3)Put the seat back up. We’ll see how they like that.

Must be a relative of the one that was in what turned out to be a ‘P....’n’ contest.

Finally she says

“I will bet that at 1 foot I can Pee higher up the wall than you.”
The takers were lining up and she picked one and said

“OK- I will take YOU on first”

“Go ahead, NO HANDS”

The biggest reason women want a cleaner in their washroom is because women leave a horrific mess in most public washrooms. They call men pigs, but women’s washrooms are ALWAYS far dirtier than men’s rooms. ALWAYS

“It means 2:1 ratio for women to men.”

Feminists today want to resurrect the ERA. They have no idea what that would mean for stuff like this.

Dive Bar (great ground round burgers) in Detroit has the horse troughs filled with ice... Also, Tiger Stadium and Joe Louis had troughs - move ‘em in, move ‘em out...

“Well, then men should just choose a wall, en masse.”

Or we could be like the so called Homeless in LA/Frisco.

I used to go to NFL games and I sat in the cheap seats. The lines of women waiting to pee was too long. The women went into the mens room to use the commodes. The gentlemen stepped aside and peed into the sinks and urinals. Everything worked out fine and there were no complaints.

“The only real danger with urinals is the occasional splash back.”

Seriously, there is nothing there that could not be fixed with a properly designed active ventilation system.

https://magazine.texasarchitects.org/2018/01/18/potty-parity/

t’s time to reconsider the design of public restrooms. The last major change in public restroom design took place 30 years ago with California’s 1987 Restroom Equity Act, which prompted “potty parity” bills in many jurisdictions as well as changes in building code aimed at equalizing restroom wait times for men and women rather than providing an equal amount of square footage or number of fixtures. Architects crunched the numbers, revised the fixture calculations, and started providing more facilities for women in an effort to achieve equity instead of equality.

“and somehow women are still disproportionately waiting in line.”

A 2015 Verizon survey found that nearly 90 percent of respondents admitted to using their phones in the restroom, which could be responsible for an increase in restroom wait times, and their exposure to fecal bacteria.

Why should one get wound up about splash back? When the urinal is flushed, a column of water washes the back splash clean. The splash back is all your own and if you have learned anything, it is how to aim the stream so there is no splash back. What really is irritating is a urinal flushing more water than it can contain; causing urine contaminated water to wash all over the floor. Your shoes step in that gross water and track it all over the place. I am sure some of it reaches the floor of your car.

Unless they mandate that Males sit while Peeing, like you do on a Sailboat at Sea (trust me on this), eliminating Urinals will only increase the “splash” zone.
