The Last Frontier
By Mitch Berg
It must be a rough time to be a “feminist”.
Oh, there’s never a shortage of things to caterwaul about. Modern Gender-Identity feminism is largely about the cultivation and political exploitation of grievances – “Angriculture”, to coin a term.
Still, at a time when women make up an almost 3-2 majority among college students, when the tide is turning even further against the rights of fathers in family court, and when the Obama administration has just pushed a law that’ll allow a woman who’s taken two or three years off the job over ten years to raise kids to sue a company for paying more to men who put the entire ten years in on the job, it must be getting harder and harder to be perpetually angry.
With one big exception. There is one thing that men always have, that women never will.
Well, anyway, there was:
Minnetonka-based GoGirl has created a reusable “urination device” so ladies can go anytime, anywhere without p**sing all over their shoes or getting crabs on dirty toilet seats. What a relief.
Apparently this is old news in Europe, but Americans are clearly getting a kick out of it. It’s getting some play on national TV shows because frankly no one is too old for potty talk.
The device is marketed to “active women” who frankly don’t have time to sit down and pee. Or you know, they love being outdoors but hate squatting. We just want a couple for fun.
“We just want a couple for fun”? I’d love to be a fly on the wall at those City Pages parties.

This is an abomination. Angryclown shudders at the thought that someday soon Britney Spears will pee her name in the snow.

On the other hand, I guess it means that now Swiftee can pee standing up. Almost like a man!

Yeah, but at least us guys can still right our names in the snow when we urinate outside.

I fully expect the EPA to ban all outdoor urination as a dangerous distribution of unregulated chemical compounds.

Assclown thought he had a pube until he pissed from it.

Think I know one of the guys involved with this. Think they used to call it the ‘standup’ Think this is better packaging.

That’s the whole thing, aclark. Women shouldn’t have packages.

This is nothing new; weird gadgets like this have been around for decades.
I think the applicable phrase is “handy gadget to take camping”. Like where poison ivy is a real hazard.
