When
you are leaving to embark on your much-awaited trek on Kilimanjaro or safari in
Jim Corbett, the last thing that comes to mind is carrying a disposable female
urination device in your backpack.
It’s
quite embarrassing for women to urinate in an open space and vulnerable to her
health amidst the wilderness as she could catch an infection. Moreover, the
dirty portable toilets are too cumbersome to carry on a trip or somewhere.
Nearly 30% of women suffer from diseases like urinary tract infection by
urinating in open space and dirty public toilets. With the toilets made
available by the authorities, availability and the hygiene are a few of the
great issues. While many would argue that toilets in subways or public places are
usually clean, none can argue on the fact that they are only visibly clean and
true carrier of germs. Urination has never been a trouble for men, unlike women
where it brings both embarrassment and health issues.
Keeping
this concern in mind, many companies have started offering disposable female
urination devices such as female urine funnel and ladies urine pot which comes
at the rescue for the women. Sanitation and hygiene at the core of the
offering, these portable female urination devices allow women to stand and pee, just like
men, but in a more hygienic manner. Disposable female urination device can be
used to stand and pee avoiding dirty toilet seats. Loving the convenience and
comfort a female urination device offers, women have become ardent consumers of
female urination devices increasing the sales from 10,000 in the start to
100,000 until last year.
But,
it’s quite disappointing that companies manufacturing female urination devices
for the comfort of women have to face numerous challenges. Such one challenge
is the lack of open acceptance by the women. Despite being bold and assertive,
every 6 out of 10 working women avoid buying a female urination device in
superstores. It’s like the history is repeating itself when the sanitary pads
had started marketing decades before. Women are shy and uncomfortable to openly
purchase ladies pee device in the presence of male attendants.
Criticism from men is another challenge which female urination device
manufacturers have to face every now and then. According to many, it’s just too
much to flack pee problems of women public, which are supposed to be talked
about behind the doors. It seems as if several strata of society are unable to
see the value such female urination devices are creating for women.
