While aimlessly wandering through Paris during a recent visit, I walked through a riverside park that had an interesting collection of innovative urinals. While I’m not particularly fond of these, I thought they were interesting as designed objects and also reminded me that the French are away less uptight about their bodily functions than the Anglos are.
Some of these designs have been poorly received by the local population, but wouldn’t it be better to have them than not and thus reduce random urination anywhere?
Other cities have experimented with and up until very recently, the old school urinals from the 19th century were still in use in some cities, I remember relieving myself in those as late as 20 or 25 years ago (how scandalous). Not to mention that the main reason why early public urinals fell into disuse - the lack of options for Women - is basically solved by Madame Pee.
What do you think? Yay or Nay?
