I cannot imagine carrying this around.  Even if I'm camping.

Ok, so what’s a GoGirl?

Simply put, GoGirl is the way to stand up to crowded, disgusting, distant or non-existent bathrooms. It’s a female urination device (sometimes called a FUD) that allows you to pee while standing up. It’s neat. It’s discreet. It’s hygienic. (more)

Ew ew ew no. It would be ridiculous to use but there's no way I'm carrying that around with me anywhere. When I'm camping I just use the hold on to a tree and lean back method, and at no time have I ever thought "gee I wish I had a pee funnel right about now."

wetbandit - you're supposed to practice with it at home before you use it in public ;)

Kelly & Small Fry -- lol at your "lean back" and "pop a squat" methods

Totally needed this at a concert! haha But really, who's idea was this? Using one of these would be about just as embarassing as popping a squat...and thats free!

Ick no!  Being a mom of all boys, they just have it so much easier than us!  Although I have to say a few weeks ago, I was on a long car trip with my two boys, ages 6 and 8, and the 6 year-old fell asleep in the car and we were still about 30 minutes from our destination but my 8 year-old HAD to pee.  I did not want to stop the car, wake up the little one and take them both to the bathroom so I got off the highway, pulled down a dark and quiet cul-de-sac and the told the 8 year-old to get out and pee.  Of COURSE, just has he was mid-stream  the people in the house nearest to where he was peeing came out of their house!  I pulled him in the car and peeled out and was freaking out figuring the home owners would follow me and call the cops or something!

If you really want to laugh...read the reviews of this on the REI website. "Just unzip and insert!"

That's the thing - I just can't imagine whipping this out.  And what do you do when you're done? Shake it off and stick it in the container?  Can you boil the container too?

Oh, the reviews give advice on that too! Rinsing it first, wrapping it in a bandana, etc. And how to use it with a bottle for those times when it's not just inconvenient to squat, but also to even be outside?????

Oh dear god. There is no way I'd ever go near one of those. Just looking at it germs me out. I can live a life without camping if it keeps me away from this thing.

I'm going to be the odd one out and say yes, if i was a hiker or camper I'd buy one. I was never really good atthe pop n squat or whatever. Maybe you can carry baby wipes to clean it?

Also I bet there are a lot of women with jobs that make it difficult to pee - like driving a big rig for days at a time. It wouldn't be something I could see myself using - we don't camp, we don't go on long road trips.

Not even if I were leaving town for a hurricane. Anyone who has even had to do that knows that it usually takes about 18 hours to drive what is normally a 3 hour drive, most stores are closed and there is nowhere to stop to pee. Even then I would rather just hold it than use that thing!
