Weak Woman Watersports - 10/28/2004 11:21:06 AM

A study aimed at finding the perfect way for women to urinate has been flushed after it was discovered that women from Western countries can't squat properly.

The Australian study was comparing Western toilets with Third World squatting, but researchers found women in more advanced countries could not hold the squat position for more than 30 seconds without falling over.

"We were quite sure squatting would be far superior to the Western toilet position, however we have a problem now — one-third of the population is unable to squat," said Professor Ajay Rane, of James Cook University.

I'll admit it. . .I'm not very proficient at the art of squatting myself. It became painfully obvious when I was in Japan and some of the public restroom facilities had the squat style toilets. I felt like I was going to fall over many times. Luckily I didn't make a mess. . .AND a total ass out of myself. It wouldn't be something I would try without assistance if I were drunk.

And here I thought I had some kind of inner ear malfunction that kept me from being able to balance while squatting to pee!!!!

Whatta ya mean I can't squat? As someone who used to work for the feds in a job that was 99% outside in the woods and pastures of the south, where the only available bathroom was a nearby bush, I've squatted MANY times. (it's public restrooms w/o doors on the stalls that unnerve me!)

beth agrees whole heartedly.

But remember the article was addressing the majority of western females. Look around, imagine those around you squatting.

Try not to laugh!

ok, I have a question.. I have bad knees. (We're talking I had my second surgery 8 weeks ago.) How does a culture with squat toilets deal with mobility impared people?

I may be wrong (or just drawing from too small a sample) but most pics I have seen of the squat type toilets have a ber there in front of the toulet to grab hold of (usually monted vertically)

and also, FWIW, dont know if its still around but there used to be a site "Women who pee while standing" - even to the extent of just unzipping the fly of their jeans to pee into a urinal - maybe that is how the squat toilet culture deals with the mobility impaired non-penile peeing populace - they teach them to pee standing up (or maybe provide in stall hand held showers to rinse off the legs?)

or maybe that is why the bidet was invented

Just my tuppence

Many of the facilities that I used in Japan did not have any kind of bars to hold on to. If you wanted to hold on to the "flushing fixture" at the front. . .I guess you could. . .But I really didn't want to touch anything if ya know what I mean (there goes my OCD talking. . .)

So what I generally did was grab a lot of toilet paper and tried to use that as a "pad" between my hand and the stall wall just in case I lost my balance. I usually only had to make "paper-to-wall" contact for a few seconds in order to regain my balance.

We spent 2 months on a project in Indonesia back in the early 1970's. Maybe things have changes since then, but most of the public toilets looked like shower stalls and you peed over a drain, no squatting required.

I'll never forget Europe in the 70's when I went to the loo and there were 3 holes in the floor and I ran to get my mom saying someone had stole the toilet. Only to be told I had to squat, aim and pee in the middle hole and the other two were for my feet. Needless to say.. I couldn't figure out what to do, I'm not a squatter. It isn't that I can't hold the position, it keeping the spray from getting on my legs and pants that the issue. This is one area in which I have Penis envy. Makes hunting and camping trips a real bitch, something I wish I could just aim and shoot.l

lol..

so, proudsub, maybe squatting wasn't required, but I hope they at least had splash guards to protect your shoes.

No squatting required? What? All women wore dresses without panties?

And I agree with MistresseEden. Avoiding peeing on your pants leg is the challenge. It's the ONLY time I envy men.

Women in Japan have had some of the same problems. That's why there are several products on the Japanese market that help women to pee standing up. They are starting to get popular in America too.

A quick google search on: Women "pee standing up" turned up a Whizzy!

looks like you could probably make a Whizzy in about 5 minutes with some poster paper and scissors - just cut, fold and viola!

These particular aids are made to be disposable. (I've seen one that was flushable!)

However, just looking at google turns up such devices that are made of more permanent plastic. They remind me of a the spigots that you stab into a can of oil.

See the Travelmate.
