    The reason why men pee anywhere and women don't is simple - men can just unzip and stand there whilst women have to lift skirts and drop knickers or drop trousers and knickers and then squat down. So much for gender equality :biggrin:

      I sometimes see golfers (male) hiding behind a tree to spend a penny - but their back is towards our back garden. We can see you!

      I have to admit to perfecting perching on the car door sill with both doors open and no-one can see anything except two legs. Hubby keeps an eye open for further cars wanting to park. This would be in a remote area lay by where you can't get into the undergrowth.

        @Philippa I've often said to OH that there's a design fault when I have to trek up the garden to go to the loo and he can just pee on a compost heap.

          Standing or squatting, the whole world knows what is happening. Urination in public is disgusting whether you stand or squat.

            I'd love to know where people are finding public loo's if they expect others to go there, it certainly isn't around here. There is also the fact that quite a few seem to charge now as well.

            You need to be careful peeing in a layby as well because I remember a recent news article where someone with bladder problems was given a hefty fine for doing so, even though they were discreet.

            I once worked with a chap who was on the way home with his sister when she needed to go and so people weren't looking at her, he just faced the traffic and pee'd away. It's also quite common to see some of the old folk with their back to you, filling a water can, down the allotment. It seems to help the compost at least.

              Since covid was used as an excuse to close most public toilets what are people supposed to do.
              If you are a delivery person I'm not sure what you are expected to do, carry a bottle of some kind perhaps as if you should happen to find the odd public toilet that hasn't been shut you are very unlikely to be able to park outside, or even anywhere near.

                Luckily here, unless you are in the middle of nowhere, there's a Tim Horton's every 5 kilometers. I buy a donut or a bottle of soda after I use their facilities as a small way of trying to compensate them for accommodating me.

                I can "hold it" a long time and luckily am not forced to do it often.

                They say that, "just in case" pee before you leave the house is bad for you but I won't drop that habit!

                  At my age there are four or five “just in case” pees before I go to the shops.:biggrin:

                    One of my friends was watering his front garden when someone started to pee on the grass verge just between the pavement and the road. He turned the hose on them and told them to pee off as there were children playing in the area. He then told him he was going to call the police for flashing in public with children around. He jumped into his car and drove off.

                    Whilst working in the garden the compost heap is definitely the place to go - it's our outside loo and not overlooked. :thumbsup: :heehee:. Pee is good for the compost.

                    A lorry driver friend said that most drivers carry a 2 litre bottle for that purpose when there are no loos around.

                    I find that if I'm out shopping for a long time I don't need the loo until I drive back into our driveway and then I suddenly need it.

                        Peeing is bad enough but there was an article recently about a delivery driver who was sacked after being caught on camera taking a dump in the stairwell of a block of flats!

                              Apparently, lots of delivery drivers use a plastic bag for, erm, solid deposits ... and then chuck it out the window, or, occasionally, accidentally deliver it with other goods. :hate-shocked: Maybe dog waste bins would be a better option for disposal.

                                The slang for pee in a bottle, normally found in a hedge or by the roadside is "truckers tizer".
