Nature's call

I don't think I can be that accurate.

I am enraptured.

Love the nautilus shell urinal.

NOT going to show this to my SO. She is already fixated on an ocean-bathroom motif.

This is way to elaborate. If you want to know about the perfect urinal, all you have to do is ask a Dutchman.

Meh, that is just a variation of putting a ping-pong ball in the toilet to give (mostly) young boys something to aim at while they learn the fine art of pissing-standing-up.

heh. Georgia O'Keefe is rolling in her grave.

By the way, did you know that the World Toilet Association is having a contest for new toilet inventions? "20 winning entries will be selected. Each winner wins a 'Mysterious' Toilet Gift". Mmmm... mysterious toilet gift...

(I also like how on their front page the headline is "Today on World Toilet".)

Those urinals are lovely. The "lips" urinal is also striking, though old news.

If you were a young boy, learning the art of "pissing standing up", i think the flower urinals would be a kinder environment than a freaky toilet."

aaah! reflecked, that thing probably scarred many a young boy for life. If it didn't just eat them up.

I never heard of a boy needing a target. I never used one, and never neede one with either of my boys.

But whatever. The painted-on fly gives a fixed target which minimizes overspray, which is why I still consider it the perfect urinal.

I can't picture any guy willingly going in one of those. But that's just me.

my thought exactly. something seems creepy about peeing into these.

Creepy, yes. They're undeniable vaginal.

And I don't like the idea of men pissing in a vagina.
