And then the letter "a" is added to the end.

Voiceover: Now you can do everything a man can do.

"Whizbiz" appears on the screen.

Behind it, a sudden drop of urine dots the i.

Voiceover: And more.

It's the disposability that's the problem, not the material they are made out of. The Whiz (and there's another brand, the Shewee, which doesn't look as good) are designed to be used again and again.

Ok. Now just imagine "whizzing" into that thing...and then wrapping it up again and sticking it in your purse for next time.

Ew!

so squeamish :P
but obviously if it caught on you'd get a special extra bag. it would be the latest fashion accesory, all the girls would have them, the peewee shoulder bag, for all your she-pee carry needs.

at glastonbury these are encouraged actually - they trialled them there in 2004. you queue for the urinals and get handed one as you go in, and then there are bins on the way out. i've spoken to a lot of people who are considering the plastic ones this year tho to combat the disposeability problem.

trouble was, in 04, because it was so novel the queues for the urinals were longer than the ones for the toilets!

Ew!

It's hydrophobic - so isn't pee-soaked, fluids just roll off - plus it does actually come with a little bag. Plus it can be bunged in the washing machine from time to time! And at least any pee that might remain on it is your pee, which certainly can't be said of most public loo seats.

Yeah but
1) most public loo seats don't actually touch my crotch
2)afaik pee is actually quite hygenic (and apparently even healthy) but the bacteria that develop once it hangs round for a bit aren't. So by the time you use it a second time (at a multi hour festival for instance) it doesn't really matter whose pee it is - it's full of rather, um, unhealthy stuff.

the hydrophobic part is good, though. I wonder how well that works.

They've thought of that! Apparently it's also impregnated with anti bacterial and anti fungal and anti microbial agents (based on silver).
