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!

I'm sorry, I just noticed this ad on Mancouch after I posted my comment. Is this type of ad normal for Mancouch?!
@Redheartmf@xanga - LOL. You're commenting on this. Priceless.
@JonasApproved@xanga - Wow really? Except you stand. Well, at least you don't have to bare your glory and take it to the floor?
Peeing on legs huh? That was quite the informative comment thread. -__-
Using the bathroom while I'm on my period is a pain in the ass. Its just -________- disgusting for five days.
i pretty much never have these problems when i'm peeing.
@Meowmeowkimmaee@xanga - This. I never saw the canals myself, as they were deeper than I could see, thank goodness. Sucked the first time I went to a squat-only toilet at a train station in China because it was an older one that didn't have a flush either, and no one told me how to "flush" it (take a cup of water from the water bucket by the sinks and toss it at the toilet)... even if I did know how, it's a messy process.
There were some places in China where you had to pay to use the (squat) toilets too. My mom and aunt insisted we make the best of our money and all try and back one out, but my cousins and I just weren't going for it, even if it did cost money just to pee.
If you squat and lean forward, you'll have better stability and won't pee on yourself. I drink a lot of water throughout the day so it's not like I can wait God knows how many hours till I get home, but I never sit on public toilet seats EVER. I don't think I have since grade 5 or 6.
so i started reading this thinking it was about guys.. and it didnt make any sense to me
now.. it makes sense.. lol
@Meowmeowkimmaee@xanga - That`s why you always go to the first stall! Haha.
Thankfully, I wasn't too bad at the squat toilets (basically a toilet set in the ground). You literally have to squat.
Unfortunately for a friend of mine, that annoying dribble was a daily adventure for her.
Haha, I learned to not grumble as much upon coming back home to the restrooms in the US.
But seriously, the automatic flush while in mid-potty? Annoying.
@lisado@xanga - I agree. is nothing in woman-dom sacred?
yeah I kind of wish it didn't get all over, I hate that icky "ew I feel dirty" feeling that happens afterwards... I'd like to not have to pee for a day and not suffer just to see how nice and clean I feel...
Okay, honestly with the squatting thing: you make the seat messier by spraying all over it and *most likely* some idiot squatting at the toilet seat got it dirty in the first place! So knock it off. Sheesh. As a person who has to clean public restrooms, I'd like to say that women are just as messy and dirty and inconsiderate of others as men are--if not worse.
Totally true-- all of it. That's why I don't drink when I'm in public anymore. I pee'd down my leg waaaaaay too many times while trying to hover above the dirty toilet seat. Ugh.
MEH. By the time a girl is 16 she has more than likely already mastered all of the techniques you have here... only thing that hinders aceing the john troublesome is A) you're in a rush, B) you're intoxicated C) the lack of traction on your shoes D) us jerks leaving the seat up.
As far as the peeing down yer leg bit... as gross/pervy as this sounds... im sure you girls can maneuver your junk so the whole pee down the leg thing doesnt happen. Open it up a bit... or whatever.
PLUS they make those pee helper things for girls so they can pee standing up if its THAT difficult to sit... plus you get your own stall, we have to stand around less than a foot away sometimes, from other dudes pissing and spraying all about.
I was shopping in Kohl's the other day, and I had to pee. Well, I was kind of annoyed to find pee on the seat of the first stall I walked into. I can understand how guys get pee on the toilet seat, but it's ridiculous for a woman to do it. Especially when they provide those thingys to lay on the seat, so your ass doesn't even touch the seat. And if the seat is that nasty, you can always get some paper towels and clean it off. I mean seriously, all we have to do is sit on the toilet and let it out. It needn't take that much thought or even brains to do that successfully. And as far as squatting outside, the only problem I have is making sure there's no weeds or anything to poke me in the ass when I do it.
I've really never had any of these problems, and I'm a girl. Maybe the occasional lack of toilet paper, but it's not really so bad to wait for everyone to leave so you can switch stalls, or just ask someone for some... they'll understand.
And peeing down your leg could happen if you're a guy, too. And only if you wait too long to pee. That's fairly regardless of gender.
@valleyguru@xanga - LOL, when my mom was in the army she accidentally sat on some barbed wire while trying to pee. She spazzed out, thinking she'd been bitten by a snake, and had to get the only other female present (a much higher rank than her) to check and see. So I guess you really do have to be careful.... weeds could be the least of the problem! XD
ha! thank you for letting womens' bathroom horrors out to the world. People must know!
this made my day :)
@Sirius_Fan_Girl@xanga - You're mom shouldn't be too embarrassed, I knew a guy who got shocked when he accidently peed on an electric fence.
