I saw this on art critic Jerry Saltz‘s Facebook page (where you see lots of interesting stuff) and I had to know more. I had so many questions. So, I asked Mr. Google and yes, according to their own website, 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 urinate while standing up. It’s neat. It’s discreet. It’s hygienic.”

FUD that! Tell me more!

“GoGirl is easy to use. Just hold GoGirl against your body, forming a seal. Aim and, well, pee. Pretty simple, huh?”

That does seem simple! Can you use it on the go…?

“GoGirl fits easily in your purse, pocket, or glove compartment. It’s a must for travel and sports. And it’s great for everyday – no more crouching over or trying to cover up an unsanitary public toilet.”

Well, I don’t have a purse, I’m a man – but I can see how this might be a revelation if you don’t have your own penis. This is revolutionary!

“While the concept may be new to you, European women have used female urination devices for years. GoGirl’s not the first device of its kind. But try it. And we think you’ll agree it’s easily the best.”

OK, I get it. But how’s it made?

“Only GoGirl is made with flexible, medical grade silicone. Dispose of it after use. Or clean and reuse as you like. (Urine is sterile, but the product can come into contact with contaminates during use, so take precautions when cleaning.) Our patented splash guard eliminates messing and spilling. Once you practice a time or two, using GoGirl is going to feel like second nature.”

So, my Mom is coming to visit me at my place in the country –I have indoor plumbing but hey, you never know!? What kind of female needs GoGirl? Where can you use it?

“Whether you’re taking off for India, taking on nature, taking on the competition, or just taking on the challenges of everyday life, there are plenty of reasons to love GoGirl. What kind of GoGirl are You?
