Reply to comment by its-a-throw-away_ in ELI5 Why do men pee in solid streams and women more or less gush out their pee? by Kaz3girl4

So this means I must hold the two folds aside and see how it looks then.

This is good, and I appreciate that!

That's actually suggested as a procedure for how a woman can pee standing up (without a funnel or similar device).

Edit

Gently hold the labia apart, don't stretch it (stretching the urethra will affect the flow of the urine).

The space between the inner lips from clitoris to vaginal opening is called the Vestibule. In a full squat, knees shoulder or more apart, the vestibule should open and you should get a direct stream from the urethra. On the toilet, use the saddle position (facing the wall/tank) to get the knees well apart if there's room. If you can't saddle, keep the knees apart and lean forward as best you can.

Once you're familiar with how this works, you can put your finger tips between the inner and outer lips as shown:

Practice in the shower and eventually you can do this standing (mostly) with your knees out and hips rolled under. Starting with a strong stream helps. Good luck!

Nothing would make me happier than to be able to stand and piss next to my boyfriend. Thank you for the info!
