when you stand up to wipe don't you sort of sandwich your ****** arsecheeks together causing an even ******** arse? (****** = poo)

what do you mean that's the way you're supposed to?

yes lol give it a google, we are one of the few countries who actually use the toilets we do, most people still squat altho i think they're using modern toilets more and more

"Let’s review the mechanics of going to the bathroom. People can control when they defecate, to some extent, by contracting or releasing the anal sphincter. But that muscle can’t maintain continence on its own. The body also relies on a bend in the ****** (where feces is stored), and the anus (where feces comes out).


When we’re standing or sitting the bend, called the anorectal angle, is kinked which puts upward pressure on the ****** and keeps the feces inside. The sitting posture actually keeps us in ‘continence mode’. This makes elimination difficult and incomplete, creating the need to STRAIN. Some researchers have compared the anatomical predicament created by sitting on a toilet to trying to defecate through a kinked garden hose. It just doesn't work.


In the squatting posture, the puborectalis muscle relaxes allowing the bend to straighten out resulting in easier defecation. Squatting is the natural way to achieve easier and more complete elimination. Research shows that squatting relieves the kink effect. Also, the pressure of thigh muscles against the lower abdomen helps with exertion and elimination.


Assuming the squat position is the natural way to achieve easier and more complete elimination. Research has shown that in some people, the kink is completely gone while squatting."

the more u know, like apparently there's been links of sitting down to do the do with bowel problems, hemerriods etc

I've always thought standing was the normal way, and I don't know how someone can easily wipe from front to back. If someone would draw me a diagram, that would be great!

i mainly do it fully standing up or somewhere inbetween tbh, never even thought of doing it sat down really

[Yawn]

my mind is completely blown
the inability to comprehend between the 2 sides.... :L

today marks the day where the sitters discover the standers!!!

it's just a question that never gets asked and u nver see anyone doing it unless you got some kinda scat fetish so nobody really realises there is a whole different way of doing it... somebody please draw a diagram of how to do each method pls... for science.

[Charz777]

I've no idea how you can do this standing!?

[Futz]

just why
