Edited to say I wish we could all have those true equalisers, the toilet over which EVERYONE must squat. I had an image, but it's not working, so look up toilets in Japan for an example.

Yes, clearly the correct answer is to inconvenience everyone.

Let's see if I can name a few things that are gross about this product.

1.) Even if it works perfectly...you still have to carry around a piss-soaked rubber faux-cock in your purse, pocket, etc;

2.) I have to imagine there's some kind of piss-backwash involved. Much like the adult diaper...sure it's not going to go all over...but you've still got piss on you.

3.) The added glamour of standing next to a bunch of guys, crouched over a urinal

How lucky for you that you never, ever have to use one! Let's get rid of maxi pads too, just in case some man somewhere thinks they're icky.

PS there are many places one might like to pee standing up besides a urinal. Of course you would not know that because you have a penis and therefore have never had to think about how obnoxious it might be to have to squat in high heels and a skirt.

Are you serious?

uhm. while i was in philly visiting some friends last month, there was a unisex bathroom at one particular bar, and my female friend clearly demonstrated, that even while plastered, she could indeed pee standing up.

just sayin.

uh-oh. someone took Accuser seriously.

and this still doesn't attain equality, men can still spell things easier in the snow with urine, the go girl doesn't look flexible enough to dot the "i" or cross the "t".

Bahahha!

Seriously, I would totally buy one if I were a huge camper extraordinaire or getting wasted all the time in high heels and mini skirts.

If you spend that much time getting wasted, do you really think adding more equipment to the process of peeing might be counter-productive?

Not really. I think the excitement of being able to pee in a parking lot while standing in my mini skirt would really keep my eyes on the prize.

They've been avoiding the whole 'lugging a piss stained rubber thing around' for years here, at festivals it's relatively common to have foldout paper versions of those things so you can throw them away afterwards.

Haha. Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of, "everyone looks funny when they squat" not "everyone should suffer". I don't think using these toilets is difficult...I mean, if they were truly a pain in the arse to use, no one would use them.

I think I know the toilets you are talking about. I remember reading somewhere that they are in fact better for you, health wise, than the toilets most Americans use. If I remember correctly, something about the way you sit on a toilet causes the internal process to be more difficult but the way you squat above the hole or whatever is more "natural".....
Wait.....this is way too much information. Never mind.
As far as this goes, haven't they been around for years in different forms? I'm not a female, so I wouldn't exactly know the pros and cons of the device/convenience/inconvenience/etc. of the whole ordeal.

I've used the cardboard ones before at a festival. Way better than attempting to hover over a nasty porta potty after a few beers. There is always that fear of falling in.

Relatively simple , if you ask me. Easier than peeing in a cup at the doctor's office.
