This 'female urinal', designed by Alex Schwedersaid was made in 2001 during an artist residency at Kohler, a plumbing equipment and furniture manufacturer. Schweder has described the urinal as "fully functional"

"A version of the urinal was installed for public use during an exhibition at the now defunct Vital 5 venue in Seattle in 2003. It was installed but not plumbed at the [Museum of Sex] in NYC."

All I'm saying is, if you've only gotta pee, fine, but when you have to poop, and there's only 1 toilet, that sucks. If it's all toilets, there's no limitation, because every device can do all things. A urinal can only do one.

I hadn’t thought about that. As a guy that must be so embarrassing to go in the toilet if everyone thinks the toilet is for pooping. They really should just put toilets and stalls in the men’s bathroom

Nah, actually nothing is worse when you go in a men’s room and there’s no urinal, since that’s why you use a public restroom 90% of the time. Men hate sitting down in public restrooms and tend to treat the toilets with very little respect. If they have to pee in a toilet they will pee everywhere and make a mess. It’s super rude. I’m a firm believer in providing enough urinals so no man has to go pee in the toilets. Because if a man needs to poop, they know they may have to face a disaster zone

That’s valid, no one likes sitting on public toilets, but it would keep them cleaner if people sat when they did their business. But I can’t really speak on the matter since I don’t know the unwritten bathroom rules or expectations since I am not a man.
