Peeing for a girl is not easy. "In fact, I would like to retaliate and say that it's easier for girls to pee because all they have to do is sit there and let it out, plus they get good exercise out of squatting.
When a guy pees, it requires thinking."
It is not easy at all for girls to pee. There are obviously major misconceptions on both sides of the gender spectrum.
1. When a girl pees, she usually has to sit down. Do you not understand how dirty most toilet seats are, especially in public restrooms. There are a million thoughts running through our heads. To sit or not to sit? Are there any toilet seat covers? Usually the answer is no. Is there any toilet paper? Usually the answer is no. And if there is toilet paper, it's the hard, very thin kind. Ladies know what I'm talking about. It's the one that you have to be gentle with because if you pull too hard, you only get one sheet, and if you don't pull hard enough then nothing comes out. Girls praise nice clean bathrooms.
2. Pee does not shoot out at the same rate all the time. You're right about that one. It can even affect girls. If we really have to go, it can shoot all over the place, even run down our leg. [I've heard stories.] Peeing for women can be very messy at times. It is very uncomfortable to have to wipe your leg and other parts afterward. You just feel icky the rest of the day. And have men ever had that moment when the automatic toilet flushes mid-urination? Maybe but not likely.
3. I'm trying not to get graphic but to explain it fully, men have to understand that we have to landscape. If our grass isn't cut, then, well to be frank, leaves and such [ie tissue] get attached to the grass. I hope you're following my drift. And don't even get me started about using the bathroom when it rains. [ie, our period, and no, it doesn't really "rain"]
4. Last but not least, squatting... really? There's nothing fun about squatting. Sometimes the bathroom is so dirty that we're forced to and that alone leaves lots of room for errors. Like when I mentioned the liquid running down our leg. One little shift while we're squatting and our whole day is ruined and sticky. Yuck.
So I don't think either side has it easier than the other. Our bathroom breaks do require thinking, maybe a little more than yours.
Mancouch says: Girls accidentally urinate down their legs on a regular basis? Man, I sure am glad I'm a guy!

Mancouch, your comments today are win!
Tru fax for all of these. At least guys don't get the once a month waterfall in their nether-regions. Bathroom is not a cute place to be during that time.
i don't have that many issues going to the bathroom.
the automatic thing, yeah.
but not most of the others.
these things should never have been leaked out to the male audience. for shame :(
I haven't peed down my leg a single time since I was potty trained. Not even when I was shit faced drunk and pissing in an ally (I had a troubled childhood).
Don't forget how difficult it is to pee outside when you're camping and there's nary a bathroom in sight!
@TropicalOceanSunset@xanga - Yup. She didn't even mention the port-o-potty issue.
You've overlooked the fact that men enjoy the sit-down experience on a daily basis as well (although we're not peeing, so not a good counter argument?). 1 and 3 apply to us. And there's always pee on the seat in the men's room. Always.
@SJay1@xanga - Haha, good counter. But I have to ask, did you plan on sitting in the mens bathroom? That place scares me.
OMFGGG EWWW
too much information
but its so interesting
its liek a watching horror movie where u cover only one eye
@KassieintheSkywithDiamonds@xanga - @quickxsavexme@xanga - @lisado@xanga - @abh816@xanga - @TropicalOceanSunset@xanga - @Redheartmf@xanga - @SJay1@xanga - @Downwithcoke - heh, for the record, we men go through this too. it's called pooping.
@JonasApproved@xanga - lol. That IS true, but still, you only have to do it when you poop, not EVERY SINGLE time you go to the bathroom....
@JonasApproved@xanga -
Unless its an emergency, never defecate in public. And poop runs down your leg? Hmm, learn something new everyday. :] But, yes, you do go through it, at some point.
@Downwithcoke - well when I gotta poop, I gotta poop. There's no helping it
@JonasApproved@xanga - Oh right. Girls don't poop. It's a fact.
Ok, (pushes away bowl of cereal) I'm done with Xanga for the day.
lol, leaves and such get stuck to the grass...
LOL Yes!
@KassieintheSkywithDiamonds@xanga - XD! I've heard so many people say this. It's funny to me because my fiance and I talk about pooing all the time.
so much for the theory of intelligent design
In China, we had to use "Squatty-Potties"
Oh my god, this reminds me when I had to go to the bathroom in McDonalds while in NYC.
IT WAS TERRIFYING
Everyone who went had to squat, so pee was strewn everywhere.
There was only one toilet working and it had horrid ventilation.
I hate the man who invented the automatic flushing toilet. He should be twirlied to death.
And one more thing that makes it easier for men: When giving urine samples at the doctors, it's MUCH easier for a man to get the stream in the cup and not all over their hands. Women have to stick the cup into the toilet bowl to catch it and...yeah.
Peeing for a girl is not so difficult once you learn all the rules.
Popping a squat in the wilderness is a fun. ;p
omg, i hate automatic toilets. they're either too sensitive and flush while you're still using it, or aren't sensitive enough and you have to push the damn button. i only use them with the greatest of apprehension. :P
I never knew how daunting a simple task like this could be for women. Not entirely sure why a bunch of thoughts are going through your brain at once when you really have to go though. I mean come on, public bathroom, of course there isn't going to be any kind of toilet paper you use in your house, of course there aren't going to be any seat covers (unless the place it's located in is generous and thoughtful), I mean I don't understand how any of those thought's would go through your head. To me it's pretty much common sense.
Did you know that many bathrooms in China are squat-only? Separated by stall walls, a communal "canal" runs through several stalls. The canal water streams in one direction, so if someone commits a #2, you might see it floating through your area on its way to the other side. Of course, when I went there, I didn't witness it myself [I only used the "Western" bathrooms] but it's a possibility.
And I hope guys don't get the impression that women pee on themselves regularly - because we do not.
@Meowmeowkimmaee@xanga - that's kinda like how some of the urinals are in the men's restroom. just one long urinal for everyone to stand over - except with no walls.
