Women's urinal six times quicker to use, creators say

The Peequal is the brainchild of two festival goers who were fed up with long queues for the toilet.

A women's urinal has been created by two ex-University of Bristol students, which they claimed was six times quicker to use than a conventional loo.
Amber Probyn and Hazel McShane designed the hands-free Peequal because they were fed up with long queues for the ladies toilets at festivals.
"No funnels are involved and it's semi-private, you can't see anything from the waist down," said Ms McShane.
A prototype is being trialled at the Bristol Comedy Garden at the weekend.

The pair, who graduated in 2020, said they had spent many summers working at musical festivals in the UK.
"In our breaks we had to choose between going to the loo or getting food, because the queues for the ladies were just insane," said Ms McShane, who studied physics with innovation.
"So for our masters project, we were asked to solve a real life problem and we knew straight away what we wanted to do."
They talked to more than 2,000 women in focus groups and pubs around Bristol, then came up with their "queue busting" urinal.
"It's actually an adaptation of a hole in the ground toilet but it's what we call the pedestal," said Ms McShane.
"It's designed like a boat to minimise splash back and also to have a little place for your clothing in front."

Ms Probyn, an anthropology with innovation graduate, said the "age-old problem" of toilet queues was "wasting hours of women's lives".
"We realise this is a shift in behaviour but it's a more efficient way of doing things," she said.
"At the start of the day you might look at this woman's urinal and be like 'I'm not sure about that' but after a few bevs, and after you've waited in the queue for about 15 minutes already - this option suddenly becomes much more appealing."

It's just a squat loo like what the Turkroaches use, but encased in plastic. You've not invented anything.

From what I've heard, the usage speed for the toilet itself isn't the bottleneck in women's bathrooms.

Another problem potentially solved by women shutting the Hell up.

wtf kind of clothing are women wearing that they need to "place" it somewhere? Or are they letting that shit drop into the toilet water because they are too fucking lazy to hold it up till they are done?

Also is splash-back really that big of an issue over there in the UK? Do they all use those low-flow toilets where the bowl is higher and the water is practically kissing your ass? Or are they taking massive shits that leave a cannon-ball size splash?

You fucking know it's designed so Amazon will buy the rights to maximize work time.

I assume this references longer skirts. Pooping in a robe is quite a chore to me personally.

 

[Reverend]

As someone that had to clean bathrooms early on in life for work , I can firmly attest that every store I worked at the women were far more disgusting at leaving literal shit around than men.

Men's destruction zone is usually the sink with dirt/crap or a clogged toilet which men avoid using. Women just toss toilet paper, make up cases, used tampons, stockings, underwear, kleenex, anything and everything that could be flushed but prefer to just scatter it around like land mines all over the place. Filthy fucking cows every single one of them, how they managed to not shit themselves and butt-scoot on the concrete to the door is a mystery to me.

They should invent a social movement that is against makeup to really speed up the shitter que.

 

[MediocreMilt]

Judging from the concept putting a bunch of them together, this requires a massive amount of space, whereas a men's urinal requires about 3ft by 3ft.

Weebs are overjoyed they can now try pissing into a toilet which resembles the below, Hanakos sold separately.

How do you piss with pants on?

How would women use a urinal? Do they just straddle over the thing then hope for the best?

That's not what they're doing in there you stupid cunts. This is like the opposite of the tranny filter, whereas trannies believe every woman doesn't pee and just vapidly mirror-gaze, these two believe the opposite. I can't believe the trannies are right on this one.

They should do that in order to finally stymie that primitive, IRL catfishing technique.

A woman applying makeup wouldn't hold up the line though? There's no mirrors in the stalls, no reason to hang about. And shitty outdoor bathrooms usually don't even have mirrors above the sinks.

 

[Kill a Troon for Pikamee]

From my experience it takes much longer to use a woman urinal, it's really awkward to start peeing when a girl is kneeling before you making a funny face, especially if you have an erection

Maybe they're camping in there and crying.

I would wait for the regular toilet, thanks. Last thing I need is some troon watching me pee.

Yet, I don't WANNA know. Just go do your business.
