How about wearing a diaper? Problem solved. Just kidding. What's the problem with providing public urinals? I don't get it. Here is an simple example from Hamburg. https://www.heringinternational.com/fileadmin/images/content... You'll find something similar everywhere in Europe. I had been in SF once. This was the smelliest city expierence I ever had yet.

Women and children never need to pee apparently. And apparently pooping is just out and out forbidden to all. Urinals are not anywhere near a replacement for public restrooms and really only fill the gap of trying to discourage public urination probably around bars.

Urinals are not a replacement for public restrooms, but urinals are a very good addition to reduce stink. Not sure what your absolutism should tell me. Also urinals probably reduce the queue at "starbucks". If you need to poop it's your turn quicker.
