Is she single?
Count me in as a Whoosh on this? Huh?
Forget about the stand vs. sit while peeing business – you serious about this?
I’ve been a woman all my life, but the only time I’ve had a “suprise” poo has been when I’m enduring gastrointestinal distress or some other frank illness. When healthy this just does not happen to me. I know before I sit if it’s pee, poo, or some combination.
Perhaps it’s not so much a male/female split in “sensations or muscle groups” as differences in individuals…?
Oh, and about the OP’s question - pretty much “just when camping”. Except not really even then, much. I’ve peed and crapped in the woods when necessary, as well as occassional fields/praries and other uncivilized locations. There have been one or two occassions I’ve envied the directional and aiming capabilities - with my bladder screaming after a long cross country flight it sure would be a relief to unzip the fly and unload into a handy recepticle rather than trying to land with my legs crossed. I dunno, though, maybe I have exceptional aim for a woman - even when asked to pee into a cup at the doctor’s I’ve never had problems hitting the target without getting my fingers wet.
Basically - 99.9% of the time this doesn’t cross my mind. On the rare occassion peeing while standing up/directional peeing would be nice I remind myself that my current equipment will never suffer the painful consequences of a kick in the nuts which, from my observation, is a life experience I’m happy to miss. In other words, the fun of vertical urination is not sufficient compensation for being vulnerable to that sort of agony.
I can pee while standing up.
In fact, the woman mentioned above who could dot the I - that’s me. I had mostly male friends throughout middle and high school and learned how to aim quite well, which came handy for our bonfire-style parties. The only thing I envy about being able to piss standing up is that a whole lot less of you gets cold and you don’t have to deal with icy porcelain first thing in the morning.
I do, however, envy how much easier it is for guys to kill a kitten than it is for women. If I could do it as easily as guys could (I’m not experienced in keigels, which supposedly can lead to orgasm) and still have multiple orgasms, I’d never leave the freakin’ house.

Every summer I work at a festival. There are port-a-potties there. That is when I envy men their ability to pee standing up, bigtime. Also, public restrooms where the only available stall has urine all over the seat. I’m surprised at women who never want to be standing up. Do you just hold it until you get home? Do you never attend outdoor events that require usage of less than hygienic portable bathrooms? Lucky you.
While I haven’t seen it, from the description I’ve read of it, it sounds like you might enjoy this movie about a guy who makes his living cleaning port-a-potties. (All together now, “Ewwwwww!”)
I have an enormous amount of compassion for the poor bastard. Those port-a-johns can get so incredibly disgusting, in the hot summer sun, with thousands of people of all ages and intoxication levels using them. I defy any woman who has said she doesn’t wish she could pee standing up to put her bare ass on one of those seats. No way, man. Even if my crotch wasn’t involved… I don’t want whatever is on that seat touching my skin. The hover-piss is pretty hard to do in one of those things, kinda like yoga performed in Hell. Plus, you have to do it while holding your breath.
Yeah, I’d rather be able to pee standing up, in that situation, and I’m not ashamed to say so. No, I’m not one of those girls who can do it. Most women aren’t, I’m guessing, unless a vast injustice has been done across generations in not teaching us all how. If that’s the case, someone lead the revolution. I’m right behind you.
That’s a good place to be, otherwise you might get wet! 
Strictly speaking, ALL women are able to pee while standing up - it just makes a mess. What the OP means, I think, is whether women envy men their ability to AIM while standing and peeing.
Although from what I’ve seen men do not always utilize that ability.
How I wish I could pee standing up. Especially when I’m out with the girls and the line for the ladies room is longer and moves much more slowly than the line to the men’s room. Also, us women do have to contend with “wet beard” whereas men do not (yes, I do wipe but still…)
I have, though, mastered the Iron Cross (steadying yourself over the toilet with arms pushed against each side of the cubicle) with zero backsplash or spatter.
As a guy, I feel badly for women because they can’t pee and aim standing up. I can sit down to pee just as easily as any woman, even moreso due to the lack of TP needed. But I don’t think that I have ever sat to pee without other extenuating circumstances. It is just that much easier to pee standing up than sitting down. And I would have to imagine that my situation is not unique - most men never sit to pee.
You obviously have more scruples than french women, then.
During a visit to Versaille, we had to use the bathroom. They were rather busy, with a long line for the ladies, and no queue for the gents. I stood, unzipped, and flopped it out, to go. As I did, a woman walked out of the cubicle behind me to exit, and another left the queue and walked in past the urinals to take her place. :eek:
Since I had started, I could not put anything away - I just leant a bit further forward to shield things, for my own modesty. This sort of thing happened a few times, at motorway services and the like. You just ignore what goes on around you.
And I certainly didn’t see any women using the urinals.

I don’t think about it so much now, but back in the day it sure used to bother me.
I remember (hazily) many an outdoor party when it would have been keen to be able to distance pee, rather than squat and fill my shoes.
Another “only when camping”. I almost never go camping anywhere that doesn’t have at least Porta-Potties, so it never comes up. I know that you aren’t at all likely to catch anything from a toilet seat, so I don’t care about sitting on public toilet seats. I do sit on Porta-Potty seats, too. If there’s pee on the seat, I get a good-sized handful of toilet paper and wipe it off before sitting down. The only thing I could think of that would make me want to find another stall or hover-pee is if there were poo on the seat.
I may not be able to pee standing up, but I can pee and poo at the same time, which some guys don’t seem to be able to do.
I’m a guy and I usually sit to pee when I’m in the privacy of my own home. But then I like to read on the toilet so that may be why I got into the habit. If it’s a public washroom then yeah I’m standing up.
What about shemales?
