I am having a rather annoying and embarassing problem, and I'm really hoping someone here has either encountered it themselves and found a solution, or no someone that has.
I should have clarified (I am honestly horribly embarassed even bringing the topic up)-- bowel movements aren't really the problem, as I can usually do all of that at more convenient commodes; at work, etc. I have a bladder the size of a peanut though, and it's not uncommon to have to go 5-6 times at night alone. :(
the space is way too small to open my legs at all. :( I've tried shimmying sideways a little, but that just results in knee pain. I can't get them apart enough to reach.
I've tried that, but when I've urinated, there's dribbling all over my clothes and the seat and... yeah. Bowel movements haven't been as problematic, as I can usually go to other available toilets (going at work, etc).
Given the scenario I would be tempted to invest in one of those standing-to-pee thingies they sell: http://www.go-girl.com/ I haven't used this one, but used a cheaper/less permanent version of it on camping trips (because squatting far enough is a no-go).
So... does this eliminate the need to wipe? I was looking at it and I'm intrigued (I'm a camper, and I totally agree, squatting sucks) if for camping trips alone
I didn't have the fancy silicone one, so I wiped. But it eliminates the dripping, and the peeing on your feet. (I can also recommend the first option (peeing standing up without any equipment), if you're up for it: http://www.wikihow.com/Urinate-Standing-up-As-a-Female It's super convenient, and doesn't really require wiping.

Um....I crouch anyway, so I'm not sure I'm much help since it sounds like you've tried that and didn't like it?

One thigh is against the wall, is the vanity on the other side?
