Open-air urinal facing tourist boats in Paris not welcome by all

Actually, France is one of the better places in Europe for out-of-the-house-toileting. There are two kinds of places that you can pretty reliably find free toilets: parks/places where people congregate to drink/picnic in the summer, and the squares where bigger markets are held.

The latter (even in some of the smaller towns) tend to have the free-but-tedious clean-between-each-user toilets. The former usually either have a permanent facility (e.g. in parks), or a stinking temporary facility of some kind (think port-a-potty or something like a four-way pissoir).

It’s also not unusual to see single-occupancy penis-havers-only urinals, but they’re not everywhere.

This is true. The only place I’ve lived that featured even more public peeing is Belgium.
