What is it with men and public urination?? In the last week I have seen 3 separate episodes of it, and I wasn't even at a major sporting event or music festival!
One of the episodes happened moments after I had picked my youngest son up from kindy and so had all 3 kids in the car. Unfortunately my daughter caught sight of it and this opened up a whole hours worth of discussion on why men can pee in public but women can't. Societal norms, gender specific anatomical differences and under-developed sense of impropriety aside, I just couldn't come up with a decent answer that wouldn't be disrespectful to the 2 other males in the car.
I really just don't get how SOME males can be so desperate to relieve themselves as to be willing to just get their gear out in public and shoot a visible stream of pee for all to see?!?!
I have done kidney damage in the past in my quest to find a decent toilet rather than use a gross, smelly (gag) or dirty one that is close at hand. It's just not fair!! To see some guy wizzing all over a beautiful rose bush with a view of gardens and wide blue sky, when I have to hover in the "kangaroo-squat" position over a seatless bowl, clutching my bag with one hand and holding the broken stall door closed with the other in a vain attempt to make the most of a stinky public toilet! AARRGGHHH it's infuriating!
I am off to bleach my own toilet now, at least I can control that!
Bye bye Bridgets!

Go Bridget!
ReplyDeleteI have to say though that society condones little boys being allowed to "point and pee" when they're in public, and so from a young age they're conditioned that it's acceptable.
And why aren't there enough public toilets for women EVERYWHERE???
