Urinals Shaped Like Women''s Mouths Canned

The " Opera Toilet" is getting canned.

An Austrian businessman is bowing to public pressure and promises to get rid of urinals shaped like a woman''s mouth. The controversial public convenience is located near Vienna''s national opera.

The urinals feature lipsticked lips, a set of teeth and a bright red tongue. A spokeswoman for the Vienna Department of Women''s Affairs told The Associated Press that the urinals are tasteless and offensive.

Owner Neuhold Gerhard said his public restroom has been open for three years. He said he found it odd the urinals only became an issue during Austria''s recent national election campaign.

Gerhard promised the urinals will be replaced in the next couple of weeks.
