Standing power to women
I’m not too sure why would anyone want to reinvent the wheel, but the P-mate device targets the fairer sex who prefer to ease themselves while standing upright, pretty much the same way men do. How does the P-mate work exactly? For starters, the lady in question will have to unfold the P-mate while making sure the device keeps its shape without being squeezed too hard. I suppose that is pretty easy to do, unless one is too excited to be ‘one of the guys’. Once the hindmost triangle has formed a tray, all you need to do is place the extremely generous opening directly under the flow area between one’s legs, where the sides of the P-mate’s opening ought to surround the flow area completely.
Once that is done, just straighten your knees and push your bottom backwards in order for the spout of the P-mate to point downwards. When everything is in place, just take a breath, relax, and let the flow run along naturally. Gravity will take care of the rest as the pee enters the urinal. The P-mate can be folded along the line for easy transportation, and is a one-time use device only. Made from environmentally friendly and fully recyclable material, the P-mate is one travel accessory that does not pollute the earth.
Why would you want to pick up the P-mate? For starters, wasn’t there a time when you had to face an uber long queue at the ladies’, only to see the men’s room vacant for the past 5 minutes? I’m sure none of the men would mind having a lady in their restroom. There is no word on pricing or availability though. If you’re a female, would you try out the P-mate once just for novelty’s sake?

I think the Pmate is made of cardboard and while I’d like to try it, I have something similar called the pStyle (Kristacup.com) which is made of sturdy plastic. The reason I use it (but not always) is that I have come into some nasty restroom conditions while on the job. It works the same way as the Pmate but is re-usable. The back of it forms a slight cup that acts as a barrier at the rear and can be used to ‘wipe’ the few remaining drips. It is a neat idea and I think it works more neatly than the similar TravelMate also mentioned here.
