Did you know that back in the 1920s there were some serious attempts to design and mass produce females urinals?

I don't really care if urinals are available or not, but they are more resource efficient than toilets. Both in terms of materials, space, and water usage. And taking it to the next step I'm starting to see increasing use of flushless urinals.

Even with modern low flow toilets it doesn't make sense to use 1.6 gallons of water to dispose of a couple cups of pee.

Wrong. Compare the two lines.

At least we're quiet about it. Who wants to p*** while a bunch of broads clack over the neighboring stall about their boyfriends?

If this really was a concern then the real serious solution would be to re-engineer the restrooms so that they consist of single seat, entirely contained closets with a common washroom area. Essentially, take the row of port-a-potties at a street fair with a single sink out front and build it permanently indoors.

The gender separated restrooms thing is so oddly ingrained though. I'm always kind of confused by many gas station restrooms that consist of two identical single toilet rooms (no urinal in either) and yet one is for women only and one is for men only.

This has the makings of a great logic puzzle.

So a gay male can only pee next to a woman. While a Hetro male can only pee next to another male. A Lesbian can only pee next to a male who is not a member of the hetro group and if you add in bisexuals then things get really out of hand.

The only true solution is universal dialysis.

Good lord! They talk while in the bathroom? That's, that's, that's just wrong.


Although it could, in part, help explain the time differential between men and women.

Yeah, talking is the main reason I would ultimately advocate entirely enclosed single seat rooms rather than simply asexual restrooms.

Strangler Lewis 05-13-2008 01:32 PM

While women clacking pitifully about their boyfriends have tainted almost every downtown solitary lunch I ever had, I feel I must give equal time to another pet peeve.

Drumroll.

Loud older naked men in the gym locker room and, worse, the sauna. The older they are, the louder they are and the longer they stay naked. I sympathize to an extent. It's probably something primal, and I'm probably doomed to go down that road. But, for now, shut the f*ck up, get dressed and go home.

SL, I suggested never doing business in Finland.

From what I hear, men do not have an exclusive on this. I guess in an effort to not come in contact with said toilet, women will kind of squat over the toilet. I understand that indoor plumbing on some comes equipped with a wide angle sprayer permanently attached (I've heard this from more than one source).

In our household, we follow this axiom:

I think there should be gay men only bathrooms. I'll bring the curtains and that crocheted yarn cover for spare toilet paper rolls...
