I have always envied the male "water faucet" for one simple reason: public restrooms. No woman wants to use one, no man is afraid of one. That is because our equipment only goes one direction while the male species can use theirs in any sort of fun manner, including snow art. I USED to be envious... until my small son (who doesn't know how to control his yet) started peeing in his own face. I would blame my lack of knowledge in this area, except it has happened when Tor is changing him too. Here's the scenario: Lars has a dirty diaper and like all responsible parents we try to change the diaper, we TRY... As we are lifting his little bottom to clean all surface areas, we hear noises from up above. We put down the legs and Lars is sputtering and crying a little and there is wetness everywhere. One time-- a fluke, three times-- and maybe we need to look into some sort of cover up. The peepee teepee has been recommended. Anyone with a similar equipment failure have suggestions? 'Cause like I said, mine only goes in the one direction.

Lars loves to suck his dad's finger. He actually grabs it and directs it towards his mouth.

Odd...I don't think that ever happened with Cole. Maybe there was more floppage, or something? It's for sure I have no idea. I got peed on a few times, but that's cause I made the mistake of taking two extra seconds to open the wipes after I'd exposed the area...It's a trial and error system, for sure. Each child has their own memorable oddity, I've found...just make sure you're keeping track. You have to have some sort of ammunition when they're teenagers.
Is it your birthday, today? Isn't it the fourth? Or did I totally botch that, too? If so, Happy 30th! If not, forget I said anything....
