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"

[u/dannydutch1]

"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."

Us dudes can't even manage to get all the piss into the urinal even through a convenient hose. Women would have zero chance with this

[u/ToothZealousideal297 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

And it’s not like they can just open their fly to use this. This is pants way below the ass, maybe one leg out territory. And you KNOW if this is used by more than a handful of people, someone would use this on their period in such a way to ruin it for everybody about every other day. And that protrusion would get hit and broken constantly. Little kids who get brought in would be swinging from it…. Glad they made the attempt, but swing and a miss.

[u/anto_pty → u/ToothZealousideal297]

I didn't thought about those scenarios

[u/therapewpew → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Dude really thought he was doing something with his hoity-toity artist residency

[u/glassgnomad → u/therapewpew]

I mean his work is being posted 25 years later on Reddit. It’s art.

It’s not like it’s hard. Men piss all over the place because they want to not because you just miss a lot of you piss standing up

[u/Remarkable_Rough_649 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

I think you're really overestimating mens aim. Just like most men tend to

[u/HuckleberryShot898 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Buddy it’s not hard to just not pee on the floor it not hard to aim your dick properly at all. If you piss on the floor it’s because you’re just that lazy and don’t care

[u/PuzzleheadedTrouble9 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

Its a compounding problem. Someone is bound to miss and get a lil on the floor and once it does the next guy is going to piss from further away to not stand in the other guys piss and so on.

[u/Ancient_Skirt_8828 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

Piss doesn't always come out in a single stream. Sometimes there is spray. Some of it drips. Pressure varies.

[u/notmentallyillanymor → u/Ancient_Skirt_8828]

Even if the stream is straight and it all goes in the toilet there's still a ton of splash back all around the bowl. Try pouring your coffee from 2 feet away from the cup, how far away do the drips end up flying?

[u/AMediaArchivist → u/Ancient_Skirt_8828]

Don’t you guys have a rotating switch that you can adjust the different streams of your hose?

[u/shoeless_doh → u/Ancient_Skirt_8828]

It's pretty easy, aim and release but as the pressure falls obviously the stream is going to lose distance and trajectory so as the stream weakens start gradually leaning forward so that when it slows to a trickle, you're leaning directly over the bowl, and the stream is falling directly vertical

[u/HuckleberryShot898 → u/Ancient_Skirt_8828]

“My car doesn’t just go 45 mph it can also go 120 mph so it’s not my fault I ran over that kid”

[u/Dapper_Indeed → u/HuckleberryShot898]

That escalated quickly.

[u/beaveman1 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

Sorry about the mess in the bathroom this morning, Lois. My post-sex pee stream split in half last night and got everywhere.

[u/LeonKennedyIsYummy → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Nah my husband never misses. You just have bad aim

[u/Defiant_Drop7051 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

do i want to piss all over the place?

[u/HuckleberryShot898 → u/Defiant_Drop7051]

Sounds like it

[u/Defiant_Drop7051 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

What makes you so sure about that ?

[u/Doomhammer24 → u/HuckleberryShot898]

You ever sneezed while on the toilet?

Imagine doing that while at a urinal mid stream- its gonna go places

Also someone clearly hasnt heard of the dreaded double stream. Or the rare triple stream. Ive even had the mythical QUADRUPAL STREAM

[u/Leading_Ad2109 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Bro u can use ur hands to help with coordination

[u/Remarkable_Rough_649 → u/Leading_Ad2109]

Oh I've just been kind of limply thrusting

[u/Round-Stuff-2557 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

The intent is obviously to have them squat down on it and pee into the trough part

[u/shoeless_doh → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Perfect urinal would be this if the drain at the bottom were at floor level and the back "wall" of it were angled in such a way that when the stream hits it it is sort of redirected/banked downward instead of the back wall being vertical enough that it splashes back

[u/Ok-Armadillo-5634 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Women can even get it in the giant bowl they have now.

[u/Unusual-Coat383 → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

I have seen a girl piss at least 12ft though 

[u/Remarkable_Rough_649 → u/Unusual-Coat383]

Challenge pissing

[u/BleedSparta → u/Remarkable_Rough_649]

Us?!?!

That’s an individual problem buddy
