SILS: GoGirl

I’ve peed on a lot of different things. The beach, the street, and right next to the “Welcome to Colorado” sign (which has unfortunately been documented in photos). In each case, I had to pull my pants as far forward as I could, hope that I wouldn’t wet myself, and deal with the inevitable disappointment upon realizing that I had…wet myself.

Luckily, GoGirl recently sent me a sample of their product, which means that my pants are now free from the threat of being soaked with urine.

I was impressed enough with the GoGirl packaging that I decided to take a few photos to share. I didn’t expect it to be so complete, but in the compact tube pictured above, there is the GoGirl itself, a piece of toilet paper (such a nice touch), and a plastic bag for disposal printed with instructions.

There may be an assumption that the GoGirl is for hairy bull dykes who will stop at nothing to obtain a penis. Well, not really (although I’m sure that could be one of its uses). Instead, the GoGirl is useful for hiking, camping, traveling, or when you step into a public bathroom and realize that someone with the bladder control of an elderly German Shepherd has just preceded you. The GoGirl is made of medical grade silicon, which means it can be washed and re-used, and has a convenient splash guard that prevents spilling.

When I used the GoGirl for the first time, I peed all over myself. This is more of a testament to my inability to read and follow directions than the product itself, but I do recommend a few test runs in the bathtub before taking it out in a place where you don’t have a fresh change of underwear. It worked perfectly for me the second time around, once I got the hang of how I needed to press the GoGirl up against my body. All it takes is a steady hand in order to keep the flat (larger) part up against your snatch, and the stream flows through the spout and onto as many surfaces as you care to mark. This summer, I’m taking a cross-country road trip, and I feel good knowing my GoGirl is coming along.

I regret to tell you that I didn’t take any pictures of me actually using the GoGirl, but that is mostly because this isn’t Piss Drinkers Magazine.

That seems to be such a small hole to wee in!! I’d like to know how you can wash and reuse it though if you’re out and aboot, because well….who wants to carry around something that smells of urine?

I know what you mean. When I’ve been on cross-country road trips, I always felt great knowing my penis was coming along, as well.

Good post. Shame you decided against the pics, though.

We are thrilled to be going the road trip with you this summer! Thanks for the review and the second try (sometimes the first time is a little tricky ;)

i’m superpumped that you just posted this. i’ve been looking for a similar item and just kept coming up with the shenis (shenis.com), and i just could not do that. like, a hollowed-out dildo would not be suitable for those like 5 hour yellow bus rides the travel team sports require. just, not.

so, thank you, dear vagina drum. i can now pee easy.

Obviously you don’t pee as forcefully as I do. I’d need a much larger…uh…bucket? What’s the word for the big part? Bucket seems wrong.

@Lilly,

Well, you pee in the larger part and it is surprisingly accurate in contouring to the vagina, so no leaks.

Also, I mean–it’s cheap enough that you can throw it away if you find yourself in a spot that won’t allow for it to be washed.
