In one of the best comparisions we’ve made ever since Elvis and Yogi Bear, we compare the archery related sport Popinjay with the P Mate.

Let’s go phase by phase and start out with the metrics:

Definition:

• Popinjay is a shooting sport which involves rifles and archery equipment.

• The P Mate is a female urinating device which lets women Pee Standing Up.

Working:

• In Popinjay, all you have to do is pick up a shooting or archery equipment and give it a whirl and try to shoot one of the wooden targets.
• With the P Mate, you have to wear the device - aim properly and shoot at the potty hole. Got the target? Bingo!

Events:

• A Popinjay festival is held every year in May.
• No festival or event yet for the P Mate.

Historically Speaking:

• Popinjay dates back to the 15th century and has its origins in Scotland.
• The P Mate isn’t old enough to have a history of sorts

So, there we go..

Indian toilet’s can be hard to use especially for someone who isn’t familiar or acquainted to it.

So, here’s how you do it:

1. Lower yourself into a sitting position above the hole in the toilet

2. Sing a song or a tune and enjoy as you let it go!

3. Once your done, point the health faucet towards your bottom and press to release the water.

4. If a health faucet is not available, fill the bucket with water and pour a few mugs of water over your bottom till its clean.

5. It’s generally more hygenic to use running water rather than toilet paper.

6. In case your using toilet paper, make sure you dispose the used toilet paper into the dustbin and not into the toilet hole.

7. Fill the bucket with water and drain it into the hole so that all trace of the excreta gets drained!

That’s all there is to it!

Easy isn’t it?

Now, you can reduce all the hassles if your a female, by just using the P Mate which lets you Pee Standing Up like a guy!

You’ve probably been to a couple of restroom’s - The first thing you see in a restroom which takes your attention are the signs.

Some restrooms are world famous just because of the weird signs and symbols they have in them!

Here are a few weird restroom signs:

• Sci Fi Female Restroom Sign

This is probably one of those restroom symbol’s borrowed from startek or Gattaca - It really makes a lot of sense!

Sometimes, this makes me wonder whether its one of the moder art collections of Pablo Piccaso.

• Uni Race Restroom Sign

Unity of all Races seems to have been the idea behind this restroom sign!

Nelson Mandela would be proud of this! *tear drop*

• Super Funny Restroom Sign

That’s one super cool restroom sign - Ever heard of the fountain of youth? - See that in action here!

• Do Not Squat on the Toilet Seat

The person who installed that sign board must have really been a genius - to have used the toilet without squatting!

That pretty much wraps up this edition of funny restroom signs.

But hey, wait!

You’ve been to a couple of public restrooms and you obviously know how hard it is to use these places unless your a guy.

So, that’s why we’ve created the P Mate so that you can Pee in freedom - just like a guy.

Pee Standing Up with the P Mate!

I have to admit… I was a little puzzled myself when I saw my first Chinese public toilet. The first thing that went through my mind was: “Are those ridged areas for my knees or my feet on each side?!”

If you’ve never seen one yourself, here’s a great example sent in by one of our customers:

Step-by-Step Guide to Using a Chinese Public Bathroom

1. Preparation
   Make sure you have tissues, sanitizer, and especially your P-Mate out of your bags. Post up your bags on the hooks, and if there are none provided make sure you have your bags securely fastened (duct tape?) so they don’t fall or swing out while you are relieving yourself.
2. Assume the Position
   As I soon learned, the ridges on either side of the bowl are for your feet (not your knees). Here’s the trick: unfasten your pants/shorts and lower both your trousers and your underwear at the same time. You’ll have to push them just past your knees, to that spot that allows them to sit fixed in that position. At this point, your fanny will be hanging in the wind so-to-speak, and you should be in a squatting position.

   If you have a P-Mate, you can skip this step, because you will you will be able to pee standing up normally.

3. Re-Alignment
   Before you let it go, you’ll need to make sure that you are as low as possible and that your pants (especially if they are baggy) are tucked up and in a position away from possible splash-back.

   If you have a P-Mate, you can skip this step, because you will you will be able to pee standing up normally.

4. Let it GO!
   Hopefully this process will take longer than reading these instructions, because at this point your legs are going to start to get sore. If there is a wall or a door, use that to support yourself.

   If you have a P-Mate, this step will be easy, as you won’t be hovering over the bowl and feeling your legs shake with strain!

5. Clean Up
   If there is a basket next to the bowl, like the one in the picture above, your tissues should go in there. If there isn’t a basket, then you simply dispose of the tissues down the bowl itself.

During your travels, pee standing up with the P-Mate.

International Eco-tourism is abundant, but make sure you are prepared.

Any destination including the Western world can be made with a conscientious itinerary. The most obvious choices are commonly overlooked in first world travel. There are countless agencies catering to very basic principals that don’t cost more or involve greater travel headaches.

If you are looking for remote, rough & natural or a deluxe hassle-free holiday, why pay an agent to plan your trip, when you can rely on reputable sources with a conscience?

The pictures in this post are from a friend of mine’s trekking trip — these restrooms actually exist, and I can guarantee she definitely wished she would have heard of the P-Mate, which would have allowed her to pee-standing-up during this trip!

Looking for something a bit less exotic?

Within the United States there are roughly 30,000 hiking trails, including, biking & waterways. If you’re looking for something like this, be sure to check out this lengthy listing state-to-state or by activity. …and ladies, don’t forget your P-Mate!

Once you go on a trip, send us pictures and a description of your adventure, and we’ll do a write up on you!

Traveling to remote places pose many challenges for the Westerner.

When traveling, the “toilet situation” can often be quite precarious for most women. You could be on a mountain trek in Nepal, with no running water, and lean-to toilet (see picture to the left) for example. Most of which are precariously situated on a hill with no footing to speak of.

Revolutionize your peeing freedom! A P-Mate allows you to urinate like a man without dropping your trousers! It is biodegradable, eco-friendly, small and discreet. Imagine the liberation of not freezing your butt off, nor exposing yourself to go for a pee, standing up!

If you fancy a real mountain “hike” in the one of the most beautiful spots in the world, the following guides offer such adventure.

In the immortal words of James Brown:

“This is a man’s world But it would be nothing without a woman or a girl”~ 1966 Though the depth or meaning of his lyrics may not have included the idea of women standing to pee, I venture to guess that at some point in his life he gave it some thought. Ironic given his history…

Historically, Women were taught the social mores of control…

…while men were afforded the ability to relieve themselves in a pee pot. Even today, if you notice in “developed” countries the men’s toilet is always the closest. One might ask, is that because they have less control in a real physiological way, are they stupid and get lost easily, or are they more deserving? I would venture to guess that it is more sort of a tradition carry-over that few people question.

Publicly peeing standing up is a natural expectation for men…

…women on the other hand must seek more shelter in order to be acceptable. Since BC 2500 we as a species have had toilets, but not until the early 1700’s in Europe was consideration for both Peeing sexes established. For the first time the designation of men’s & women’s separate toilets appeared in Paris.

Women who pee standing up will revolutionize all former social virtues.

Not only does the p-mate offer ultimate freedom, it begs to question our norms as a culture. For images of the soon to be past:
