The best pee funnels for camping, road trips, and more

If you'd rather not venture into a public restroom right now, you’re not alone. What's more, your fears are valid: Flushing toilets and airborne particles are genuine Covid-19 risk factors.

Still, we all gotta go, and stand-up urination devices — also known as pee funnels — are a useful way to increase the number of places people with vulvas can pee in relative peace and safety. (For No. 2 needs, please see our guide to portable toilets.)

The best stand-up urination devices are designed to be placed inside the fly of your pants, which means you won't have to get nude from the waist down to pee. Then urine flows through the funnel and out the open end, either into a toilet or onto the ground. Some funnels even have a squeegee-esque larger end, which can be used to squeeze excess urine from the vulva and (hopefully) negate the need for toilet paper. Read more...
