Japanese men kneeling for a number one?

by Lee on 5/10/2009

When it comes to weeing, I will personally admit that after one too many lagers my aim can be a bit awry to say the least. And, judging by the often liberally sprayed floors of public lavatories, I’m not alone when it comes to the odd poorly aimed pee. Yet that said, surely no man’s misses can be that badly directed or bring about such a deluge that he be subjected to the indignity of this device.

A contraption that rather comically is called the Angel Lap Pillow (天使のひざ枕), and while it helps stop splashes from a rather lax leak, it also prevents spillage from even a pinpoint piddle.

But either way, a man having to micturate in this manner is surely tantamount to taking the piss.

Wiping up somebody else’s misses when you’re cleaning is pretty undignified too!

Do all Japanese do that ? :D
i think it just a habit matters, is it common among japanese men to kneel when doing it?

No, not at all Lowongan. Never seen one of these in the wild, and don’t expect to to be honest.

Do they make a taller, Caucasian version? Because that water can get pretty cold.

The hinge on my seat is loose, so the lid often slams shut on its own. If you think I’m gonna dangle my junk in that thing’s gaping maw, you’re sorely mistaken.

How can he pee with those yellow spikes pointing right at his face?
