Do you think there is a limit to the amount of water that the sprayers will fire into the cubicle? Or does it just keep pumping it in there until the business has concluded?

I'd want to throw a fistful of bouncy balls in there to simulate "unusual movement" and then wedge the door shut from the outside to see if the thing fills up with water.

Trick the toilets into destroying themselves.

It's a public toilet, it'll probably cost 20p.

I have an other proposal, let's build love hotels in the Welsh coastal towns. Lots of anti conception in every room, sex toys, tapes, books. En suite large bathroom with bathtub big enough for 4 ppl.

You can enter anonymously, but can't leave if not everything in the room is clean again. (Linnens excluded)

Than they can keep the old public toilets.

I assume that there is going to be a full scale mockup of these toilets in a testing lab somewhere, before they actually build them for public use. It makes me wonder how they are going to test them...

Well, actually. They do need to prevent promiscuity in public...

1. Nothing in the design prevents the device from activating if the people having sex are in a monogamous relationship with each other.

2. Why is using a toilet; which in theory gives them some degree of privacy; "promiscuity in public" to any greater extent than, let's say, in a bedroom with the window open?

3. If someone's desperate enough for casual sex to do it in a public toilet, do you really think pressuring them into a monogamous relationship would end in anything other than adultery?

How do we know this? Because the first step toward Communism is Socialism, and none of the aforementioned are even remotely Socialist in any way, shape, or form.

The problem with this is that the proposed toilet is now notorious enough that what it set out to do will have the opposite effect: people will actually want to have sex in it to see if the anti-sex features work. It's a bit like a distorted Streisand Effect: the measures to suppress an activity will actually encourage it due to the desire to see the means of suppression in action, due to the means of suppression being so ridiculous and comical.

It might actually be a brilliant idea by the council. It'll become a tourist attraction all by its self.

So instead of people having sex in the public toilets with the door closed, now they will be exposed to everyone. That's a brilliant move, it will certainly encourage voyeur and exhibitionist fetishists to stop by.
