And the men’s urinals here have a silhouette of a fly in them. What’s that all about? Are they targets?
Yes, actually. It's been determined that men are not as messy when they have a target. http://www.npr.org/templat... ""Apparently," Berenbaum says, in males, "there is a deep-seated instinct to aim at targets," and having a fly to aim at reduces what she politely calls "human spillage." When flies were introduced at Schiphol Airport, spillage rates dropped 80 percent," - bentley

Same theory applied to male potty-training. :) - Anne Bouey
First time I heard about this was when I was in Portland at a conference in October. It was mentioned during a presentation on UX and UI design, and then, shortly after the presentation, I found that the bathrooms in the conference center had them. - COMPLICATED MR. NOODLE
