Peeandgo, The Lady Urinal with a Splash of Gold

You may be forgiven for thinking it’s toilet week here on Giz, but how could we not show you this? The Peeandgo, designed by Chen-Karlsson takes its inspiration from traditional squat urinals in Asia and the Middle East, and I’m guessing its *ahem* provocative shape is designed to stop splashback. There’s no info on pricing, or indeed on whether that’s real gold, so it looks like a design prototype. It’s nice to see a rethink, and a bit of luxury devoted to the oft-ignored porcelain things in the bathroom, but, ladies of Giz, do you think this design is actually convenient nowadays?

Is Your Water Broken? I Think Mine Is! (Vomit)

Hey ladies, imminently expecting to bring a child into the world? No, but you have a sneaking suspicion about the mysterious expansion of your abdominal area? Wouldn’t you like to be absolutely sure when/if your water breaks to avoid implausible sitcom rush-to-the-hospital hijinks? The AmniScreen is a schmancy pantyliner that detects the elevated pH in amniotic fluid (gross) and turns teal if you’re about to enter a world of birthing pain with a 96 percent accuracy rate. Wow, I got this whole post without puking! I’m pretty impressed with myself. [Barr Pharmaceuticals via Medgadget]

Italian Perv Professor Claims Ultrasound Can Hunt Out the G-Spot

A professor from the University of L’Aquila in Italy says has discovered a clue which may point the way to the fabled G-Spot—or at least prove that some lucky ladies have it, while others don’t. Emmanuele Janini’s findings (he scanned 20 women, 11 who experienced vaginal orgasms and nine who didn’t, with a vaginal ultrasound) have set off a raging debate inside the wonderful world of lady-pleasure.
