Summary: 

Yes, it is easier for men to do it standing up.  And, incidentally,
that's why they put flies in our pants (no pun intended).  Why should
we go through the trouble of opening our trousers, dropping them and our
shorts to urinate.  What should also be customary, however, is the 
installation of urinals in all bathroom, commercial and residential.  
That way nobody would have anything to complain about.

As far as women using paper to *gift wrap* their sanitary napkins,
why don't the makers of these things include convenient little bags
to dispose of them in?  Like the above, doesn't this must make sense?

There are also things far worse than the consumption of toilet paper 
by women, required by the unfortunate state of affairs that women 
endure.  My pet peeve is probably plastic disposable tampon applicators.
These little nasties inevitably get flushed down toilets and end up
on South Shore beaches.  Disgusting!  These things should be outlawed.
I have nothing against women or their biological functioning, but 
what's wrong with paper applicators that disintegrate?
