Urinals for the ladies!
 

Ladies urinals are the growing trend amongst music festival organisers, apparently. Can't imagine how exactly it would look (and work), but I'd love to hear from anyone who has peed in a Shee Pee! :hmm:

Shee Pee news piece

I've seen women's urinals before I think (not a shee-pee though)... the one I saw (in a picture) was made out of metal, a little lower than average waist height and very wide. I think the idea was the woman turned around and kind of "generally aimed" (you could say sprayed) out. There was something in the middle to catch drips.

I did a google image search. Found something that looks _vaguely_ like what I remember: http://www.toiletnet.com/ChicagoWomansClub.jpg

and then another one that's completely different: http://img.urinal.net/dairy_queen/dq1.jpg

hmmmm . . . interesting . . . but i like sitting down thank you very much . . . my balance is just not that good ;)

I'm not fully understanding how this wouldn't end up very, very messy.

I prefer to sit myself, but I suppose if I could ever master the technique of peeing standing up, I would give it a try. :p

Here are some related links I found that I thought were interesting.

Women Who Stand Up To Pee
Travel Mate

I've used them is Europe over the years and find that it's not big deal. At least you don't have to look for the seat covers and they tend to remain cleaner than regular potties. SOme women spray all over like guys. And oh my, It's really annoying!! Show some skill ladies, please.

are they just out in the open like mens urinals, because I like to know someone pretty well before i pee in front of them. I thought that was one of the luxuries of being female.

Interesting links, Onodrim. Not sure about the travel mate...I've never had any problems finding somewhere to squat when I need to.
