I use the Mango from Mango products, and its done me well! I remember when I first used a urinal, I was at a rugby game with my step Dad (Leicester Tigers, for any fans haha) and was desperate for the toilet, so I just thought, I might aswell go for it. I was 16 or 17,so pre everything. It went smoothly, it was empty in the mens, but as I was leaving, this HUGE bearded guy walked in, looked at me, and carried on. For some reason, I found that scary at the time.

Now I use urinals all the time. It can seem a disgusting thing to be proud of doing,but using them does make me feel comfortable with myself since it is such a male thing.
I definitely prefer the individual urinals, but have also used those long ones that span across the wall, including when other guys are using them. I just dont stand too close. (I use urinals mostly on nights out, so other guys are probably too drunk to notice anyone around them anyway). It all just feels so natural now.
    I love being able to just pee whenever; against a tree, behind a building etc. I just cant wait to be able to do this post op, withOUT an stp!

I also use the Mango, it works great. I had a problem with the customer service....it took 14 months to receive my first order. When I finally did I decided I better reorder in case it took as long. I reordered last March 2010 and still have received nothing, I finally contacted the BBB in the State where they are located. I had sent them several emails over the past year and they just ignored me. They have replied now that I took it further and they are refunding my money. It's really too bad their customer service sucks because they have an awesome product line.
I am curious if you had the same problem, I read some other reveiws that the service was bad.

Helpful hint: us other men in there, we're SOOO not looking!

Yeah I only had two situations with guys looking at urinals. One of them was at a gay bar and I was using a urinal alone in the bathroom and two guys came in and went right beside me even though there were about 10 urinals. Only one of them was going and the other was just standing and talking to him but they kept looking over at me and I felt really uncomfortable because I was paranoid my stp wasn't realistic enough so I couldn't go and left. The other time I was at a pub and there were only two urinals and one was open and all the stalls were taken so I went there. I kept looking down at my own to get it in position and the drunk guy next to me looked over and asked if I was trying to look at his dick. But he was laughing and smiling and I was like "oh, uhh no" and he was like "hahh yesss you are" It was very strange. Then his friend came in and he told him that I was trying to look at him I was like ahh no I wasn't. They weren't aggressive or angry about it they were joking about it.

Yeah, it's just a big discomfort party, and everyone's invited . The straight guys are terrified of being looked at, or that anyone will think they're looking, the not-straight ones are either terrified of being caught looking, or think they're expected to (or just are or aren't looking, of course). So every time you walk into one of those places, you're participating in a collective counter-transference psychodrama that's been centuries in the making :-/

Personally, I can't imagine getting that curious while I'm taking a leak - I mean, I selectively love cock, but let's face it, the last place that's going to make me feel horny is a stale-piss-perfumed box full of strangers. Go figure.

Hahahah yeah exactly.

I heard about this too, it's not just you. Apparently this has happened to a lot of guys so they're boycotting the business now.

I love using urinals/standing to pee. I havent in busy restrooms as I dont have a realistic stp but whenever I can I do. I used to hate going camping because of the whole squatting in the woods thing but now I get to pee on trees :-D

I hate to barge in on this thread, but I have a question or two. I understand that an stp is a device that will allow you to stand and pee. I would like to know where to get one. My wife and I have been in situations where both she and I wish she could stand and pee. Not because she wishes to use the mens room, but in a situation where a restroom may not be available. So would an stp be a good solution for a situation like this?  Are there different types?

Hey Roxy,

There are plenty of options out there for women that want to stand to pee.  There's The Whiz, Travelmate, Go-Girl, Freshette, P-style to name just a few.  With any one of these, it takes practice to get it down.  I have experience with 4 out of the 5 that I have mentioned. 
The Whiz: is great, it's soft and flexible but not as flimsy as the Go-Girl. Has a longer extension to direct the pee away from you.
Travelmate: It's just like a medicine spoon in a way.  You have to really know where to put it if you want to avoid peeing on yourself.
Go-Girl: Works on the same order as the Whiz but is far too flimsy for me to use.  I have big thighs and thats a bit of a problem for me.
Freshette: It's a very hard pink plastic trough with a tube.  It works but it's something that you can't easily conceal or just put in your pocket. 

I really dont care how to have pee lol

Like Erocse, I'm sorry to be barging in on you, but one thing comes to mind: If someone notices your STP, all you have to do is say "WERE YOU LOOKING AT MY DICK!?" in a loud voice, and you should have no problems.

Exactly - never underestimate the power of others' shame .

I bought the mango from them in 2007/08 and had no problem.  I also had no problem buying a binder from them before that. But, when I tried to buy something else from the later on (I guess their service got worse!), I think this was  early 2009, they took the money for the order, but I recieved nothing. I kept emailing them over the next few months. No reply. I tried being polite, finally sending an email that was obviously me pissed off after 6 months. I still heard nothing. I then quoted everything Id kept from them, showing theyd taken the moeny, when the transaction happened etc and said I wanted my money back. They eventually replied, with no acknowledgement of any of my other emails. And I eventually got my money back. I have also heard of alot of guys who have had problems like this. You just have to be persistent if it happens.

Im just glad I got the Mango when I did, because it is the best purcahse Ive gotten from any site, ftm related. They seem to be so much hassle now. Maybe theyve sorted themselves out since I last used them, lets hope.

you can find the freshette at camping/outdoorsy stores like REI for women who like to hike and camp and not squat in the woods
