Why does Europe have street urinals but nothing for women?


Recommended Posts

I would have thought Europe was the leader in gender equality because most if not all women can’t use urinals or be willing to use them and street urinals are free while many bathrooms cost money in Europe. Are women jealous or disgusted by these in Europe? I saw them in Amsterdam recently and a group of guys casually went out in the publc while girls in theIr group waIted on the side. There was little privacy for women to use them. I am just amazed that liberal cities like Amsterdam and Stockholm would have them because it doesn’t really seem progressive to me and I wouldn’t find it fair as either a man or woman

I would imagine it's at least partially because there's far less infrastructure associated with installing a simple block of urinals out in the open compared to a proper toilet block with cubicles etc. that you would need to provide for women, as unfair as it undoubtedly is.

Yes and sadly these days if people complain they are probably more likely to remove the urinals for men than install (more expensive) facilities for the ladies. So we’ll end up with equality but with the original problem of men peeing everywhere returning.
