Women stand to pee

 
Women stand to pee
Quick Japanese lession. Oshikko [おしっこ] means to pee - a colloquial and often used word. When you want to say that you need to go, you say "Oshikko Shitai" [おしっこしたい].


Looks like women can now do oshikko with this invention - the picture explains it all.

Strangely enough I have seen these advertised frequently on TV. They are quite ingenius, but is there a market?

There is there is!

In 3rd worlds countries where public toilets smell like **ite and the toilet bowls are often covered with some random dirts... Traveling women must always keep stock of this oshikko device ^^

The idea is that they are one time use disposible.  They are just made out of treated cardboard.

Ooh, I've heard that contraption being used in England. As a woman I think that's a pretty novel invention, I hope that it gets to be sold here in the US. It'll definitely come in handy when going to the loo in porta-potties or in public restrooms (At Bonaroo-type events). Those places get so filthy, I'd rather piss my pants then sit on those things.

Great invention! 
However, it should be cleaned just after being used, for obvious smell and germ issues. ^^;

Im guessing you throw it away after one use. Kind of like the original tenga cup. Or else, you might get urine in your makeup, gum, hairbrush, cell phone, organizer, and all the endless amounts of crap that women have in the blackhole that they call a purse! Sorry about that..lol.

Umm... Very true. Forget what I said then. Still this nifty accessory does not allow one to forget to wash her hands thoroughly (with soap, please!) after doing her bladder thing (urinate).

Have fun learning how to aim, girls.(Not Sarcasm) If we can bring this into potty training, soon we will have stand-ups in the ladies room. Then, maybe we can eliminate the necessity of separate bathrooms altogether! I approve!

Japan should have copied the western method for design, its much smaller and convient.
This design is just unattractive and looks harder to use than the original. 
Sorry Japan, you failed this time :(

Funny enough, while inventors are striving to let women stand to pee, it would seem that 40% of men in Japan sit down to pee. :p

If companies are going to make devices to help people pee, maybe they should work on some sort of strap-on laser site.
