http://www.theguardian.com/commenti...e-a-stand-against-the-urinal?CMP=share_btn_fb Oh look, feminists obsessing over irrelevant first world problems. Again. So instead of simply making the choice to forgo using the urinal, he makes the argument that they should all be removed thus forcing everyone, by the violence of the state, to adopt of feminist views and sit down to pee. It may be just me, however when I am out and out I am usually carrying a concealed handgun. It is far easier to walk up to a urinal whip my fire hose out and take care of business, then it is to go into the urinal, lower my paints and keep my belt line around my knees to keep both my handgun and wallet out of reach of the person's next to me in the stalls. But clearly, short lines at the public restroom is a male privilege that must be checked at the door.
Swedish Feminist Want To Make Peeing Standing Up Illegal for men Male representatives on the Sormland County Council in Sweden should sit rather than stand while urinating in office restrooms, according to a motion advanced by the local Left Party. Known as a socialist and feminist organization, the party claims that seated urination is more hygienic for men -- the practice decreases the likelihood of puddles and other unwanted residue forming in the stall -- in addition to being better for a man's health by more effectively emptying one's bladder, The Local reported. But not everyone agrees. "Men scatter urine not so much during the actual urination as during the 'shaking off' that follows," John Gamel, a professor at the University of Louisville, wrote while addressing the issue in 2009. "As a result, forcing men to sit while emptying their bladders will serve little purpose, since no man wants to shake himself off while remaining seated on the toilet." A representative from the party said he hopes to move toward sitting only bathrooms. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1590572.html
Yawn .. already been through this and as usual you actually didn't bother to review the reasons for the proposal (which was defeated), and now you are just repeating for the sake of it.
I would just like to point out that if they did indeed remove urinals, men would just be peeing standing up at the toilet... nothing gets solved.
Elbows--if they are not automatic then flush with your elbow. And women do not like men using THEIR toilets because apparently we tinkle everywhere and never lift the lid, which is a complete exaggeration on their part since most of us cannot hit the ceiling no matter how hard we try..
Well the standing part wouldn't be so bad if the toilet was on a hydraulic lift system to bring the surface of the water closer to the action. Gravity, urine, and water all conspire to soil the general area around a toilet, but if we could somehow lift the toilet we could beat them at their own game. Since the splash energy factor coefficient would be less than the Commodenstein limit. which is the required force for a droplet of water/urine to leave the confine of the water containment area of a toilet, the myst we boys create in our potties would stay in the toilet where it belongs. And women would lose one of the biggest guns in their arsenal against male yuckiness.
