GoGirl - So girls can ... go
What is this obsession with women being able to pee standing up? Other than the ability to write my name in the snow, I have not really felt like I'm missing out on anything. I have yet to catch any communicable diseases from a toilet seat. And I do actually sit on the toilet seat. There, I said it.If you're a hoverer, by the way, check out this story on ABC News and sit your bum down, please. The messes you people leave should be classified as terrorism.
Onto the product: This is the GoGirl. It's a somewhat updated version of the "pee funnel" we showed you back in 2004. For example, rather than "pee funnel," they call this a "female urination device" (or an FUD).
The GoGirl is disposable, and comes with tissue and a biodegradable baggie all in the neat little cylinder that fits in your purse or pocket. You can buy one here for $4.99 (you can also buy a t-shirt, cap, or shorts, in case you want the world to know you like to pee standing up).
GoGirl recommends their product for SkiGirl, OutdoorsyGirl, GlobalGirl, MommyGirl, CityGirl, and RoadGirl for varying reasons, but however many of those I may be? I don't want one.
Largely because it would require me to essentially piddle into my hand. Ew. Warm. Ew.

This thing is silly, and I can't believe there are other existing products it's trying to beat out. I wouldn't nor do I ever see myself using this... unless I was an astronaut and NASA made me.

Omg, Kathy Lee and Hoda pulled this out the other day on air, and they were so grossed out, and couldn't figure out how it worked, and everyone was acting so awkward. The camera man panned away at first -- I think he thought it was naughty. I don't know. But I thought it was HILARIOUS.

Sitters unite! I have never done the hover thing, either. I'm always afraid of peeing down my leg into my shoe. When traveling I take along one of those mini toilet paper rolls you can get at Target along with a ziploc bag of clorox wipes for those times you just can't wait until the next opportunity.
