Space Shuttle has a toilet that can be used by both men and women. Designed to be as much as possible like those on Earth, the units use flowing air instead of water to move waste through the system. Solid wastes are compressed and stored onboard, and then removed after landing. Wastewater is vented to space, although future systems may recycle it. The air is filtered to remove odor and bacteria and then returned to the cabin

They stick their butts out of the window.
Actually, I would assume that lavatory facilities would have a vacuum assisted function. I'm sure they would not consider waste floating around to be sanitary or good for equipment.
I'm sure that for longer spacewalks there would be some sort of collection system for urine and good old fashioned "briefs" for solid movements.
