Not sure what is more strange, this story or the fact that there is a restaurant name that combines the term honest and lawyer together!

A urinal shaped like a womans wide-open mouth has been flushed out of the mens room of a Hamilton eatery following a nearly year-long public outcry.

The glossy, red-lipped loo at The Honest Lawyer restaurant sparked a letter writing campaign that attracted almost 1,100 people, including Ontarios NDP leader and Hamiltons mayor.

Some people argued the Kisses! urinal manufactured by Bathroom Mania! in the Netherlands was art or just a joke.

The Woman Abuse Working Group, a coalition of 24 organizations, disagreed and led efforts to oust what it considered to be an offensive water closet. Lenore Lukasik-Foss, chairwoman of the group, said Monday shes shocked, excited and thrilled that its gone. Its not a joke to pee into a womans mouth, she said. The group was concerned about womens safety and the message the urinal, which had been there since the restaurant opened in February 2007, sent to men in the bar.
