Urine was once used for cleaning. As a matter of fact, the output from public urinals in Rome was once a monoply of the Emperor. Why? Can you say "cash flow"?

A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet, and a urinal by any other name would still be a urinal. I suggest calling it a "stand-up commode". That makes a lot more sense than calling it a "rose".

Actually, peeing in the Bidet' (sp?) will get you a urinal in 24 hours! (If you live that long)

I love the expression on his face. He might want to get his prostate checked, though.

Saw my first bidet when I lived in South America.

Took me six months to figure out what the damn thing was for.

Really - that's one of the great things about living in the country! No need to run back to the house when nature calls.

When I remolded one house, I had a sink, commode and urinal put in the "maids" bathroom, took a week for my ex to notice. Then took a month for her to get over it. I heard, "What are my friends going to think" forever and ever.

As long as you regained that "fresh & clean" feeling when you were done it's 'OK'!

The urinal above is a women's urinal, a Urinette "She-inal".

"The 'She-inal' was designed by a Pensacola, FL woman named Kathie Jones. In the early 1990's she set out to design a urinal intended specifically for women, but this fixture never caught on for various reasons."

"While it's as not as versatile as a regular toilet, it still takes up the same amount of floor space. The funnel-like device that is is shared by everyone using the urinal also proved not to be a popular feature. Because of those reasons, not more than 700 'She-inals' were sold before Urinette, the company that manufactured it, sold the manufacturing rights." This men's urinal is located in the mens room of the same Dairy Queen.
