It looks like this is a French tradition going back to the late 1800s:

I like how this headline is worded:

Paris residents pissed at public, eco-friendly urinals

It wasn't until women started entering the workforce in greater numbers decades later that the need for enclosed cubicles with seats, toilet paper and hand basins emerged, explained Raymond Martin, managing director of the British Toilet Association.

But centuries after the first pissoirs were installed in Paris, women are still not being adequately catered for, said Martin. "The trouble today is the inequality for women," he said, adding that in the UK, various proposals for female urinals had been rejected on the grounds that they exposed women in public.
Public toilets for women will have to be enclosed inside a building.

It will costs more $ and work and material.

We men can just pee and go, anywhere in public, on the streets even where there are no public urinals.

Most of the time, we are not even worried about anyone seeing us peeing in public.

When you got to go you got to go.

Women on the other hand - just peeing is a bit more complicated for them:

Some even carry a big purse plus a big bag nowadays everywhere they go.

They can’t smell worse than the old fashioned pissoirs that were in Paris when I first went in the early 1980’s.

In some European cities, they have toilets that requires coins to access. They also have toilets like phone booths on the street that not only requires coins to operate, but you only have 15 minutes before it opens its door while you are still in it:

Or having to use one of these that are in different cities around the world.

They look filthy!

There is no fucking way I will use one!

So fucking uncivilized!

If I was in a forest away from any civilization, sure I'll do it in some shrubbery or something but in a city with buildings and civilization and indoor plumbing and running hot and cold water, I don't think people should be expected to use something like that nowadays in the 21st century.

Actually these should be the standard for women urinals. Some women hover anyways on public toilets. This would make it easier.
