“ But the United States is simply not made for people who pee.”

That’s in the 4th or 5th paragraph. That’s the human anatomy the title is referring to.

Shouldn’t the title of the submission match the title of the article? Anatomically correct suggests something very different.
Yes, it should. The submitted title ('America Is Not Made for Anatomically Correct People') broke the site guidelines: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Perhaps the submitter thought the title was linkbait, but I don't see it that way and have reverted it now. Generally we try to avoid euphemisms and Bowdlerisms here. It's better to assume that readers are smart enough to handle things for themselves.
