The Newest Trend Has Women Standing While They Pee
The newest trend has women standing while the pee instead of siting down. This has been attempted many times in the past by women but most of the time it’s unsuccessful. Whether you’re stuck in a packed parking lot or standing in long line waiting for the women’s restroom, it can be painful to hold it. Many women have found that standing at a urinal while peeing can be a helpful hack to release the situation.
The Newest Trend Has Women Standing While They Pee:
Men have been able to stand and pee since the beginning of time. It’s convenient, quick and much more sanitary than having to sit on the toilet. Men can easily take out their ‘situation’ and discretely urinate anywhere they want, especially in a bind. However, it’s not so simple for women. For us ladies, standing while we pee takes a lot of effort and can cause some immediate damage if done wrong. Normally, this happens in an emergency or dire situation.
The last time Meredith from Wild 94.1 was forced to go to the bathroom like this she was in Jacksonville, Florida. She was hanging out at The Landing which was an outdoor shopping center at the time. On that particular day, the city was hosting ‘The Largest Cocktail Party in the World’ during the University of Florida vs. University of Georgia college football game. After the game ends, everyone walks over to The Landing to drink and celebrate their team’s victory. However, it gets so busy that the lines get extremely long and it’s almost impossible to use the bathroom. Instead of waiting, Meredith took it upon herself to go inside a photobooth, close the curtain and stand while peeing directly into her empty large beer cup. It worked like a charm and surprised her at the same time.
Why Are Women Standing While They Pee:
Most women have at least attempted this once in their lifetime. But without experience, it most likely never happens again. Mainly because it makes too much of a mess and it can be quite uncomfortable. However, if you’re stuck somewhere and can’t find a bathroom, squatting with your legs far apart is always better. If you see women trying to stand while peeing, it’s because many videos are currently trending online. One woman needed to go to the restroom, in the middle eating dinner with her boyfriend. He wondered where she was so he opened up the bathroom door and saw her standing over the toilet. Click HERE to see one video that’s gone viral.
No, You Don't Really Look Like Your Selfies - Here's Why
Lenses flatten us
Lenses flatten our image. Photographer Nadia Meli spoke with Cosmopolitan.com about this reality. “Our bodies and faces do not look the same in the mirror, on a professional DSLR, on the phone camera, the front lens the back lens – all of these don’t show us how we actually look either!” she said via the magazine. “Lenses always flatten us, it’s just 2D, not 3D and doesn’t give an accurate representation of what we see when someone is in front of us IRL!” Crazy, right? She added that the camera actually fails to capture what’s really in front of it.

The lens distorts facial features
Upworthy.com explains why selfie cameras are the absolute worst. They state, “Cellphone selfie cameras usually have an even smaller focal length than the 40 mm shown here (Winters points out that the iPhone 13 Pro Max selfie camera has the equivalent of a 23 mm focal length), so they distort facial features even more.” They add that other factors are how far away you are from the camera, because the closer you are, the more distorted your photos will be. Another reason the camera doesn’t capture what we look like in real life, aside from the lenses, is the 2D factor. You’re not going to look the same on a 2D photo as you will in real life. Lighting is also a huge issue. Lighting can make or break a photo.

They make your nose look big
Selfies can make your nose look much bigger than it really is. “For years, I’ve heard patients and family members say, ‘Oh, look at my nose, it looks so big,’ when they show me a selfie,” Dr. Paskhover tells Yahoo. “I was always telling my patients, that’s not how you really look.” Selfies simply distort your nose shaped, due to the lens and your distance from it.

We're used to a mirror image
“The image you see in the mirror is reversed compared to the image that others see face-to-face with you,” Psychology Today explains. “Your friends are familiar with your non-reversed image, while you are familiar with your reversed image in a regular mirror.” That totally makes sense.

The lens can make you look thinner or fatter
The Huffington Post points out that, “Different camera lenses can change the way people look in photos.” They add that, “the shorter the lens, the wider it’s going to make your face.” So, make note if you don’t want your face to look super wide.
