well I've spent some time traveling to egypt where water is conserved if at all possible. It is something I used to cringe at, but now It doesn't bother me. I mean if the pee is REALLY DARK, or smelly then yeah I'll flush it, but otherwise I don't mind. What probably has you feeling skittish is the subconscious thought that "HEY, somebody else peed here on this seat" A lot of gals don't like that idea and hence the "hover method" was born. If perhaps you feel you are one of these galls and think it wouldn't be so bad to pee if you didn't have to sit, check this site out!

Personally I think it's kind of cool, but i haven't had the chance to really try it out. Too affraid I"m gonna pee all over myself. I think I may try in the shower some time or something. Anyway my bf lives in a college dorm so it would be kinda cool to creep him out one day by standing next to him at the urinals.
