Squatting proper position for using bathroom?
sharkhunter
I think this topic was posted before, I don't see a search button. Anyway I've seen a YouTube video of a woman climbing up on a us style toilet with her feet on top of he toilet seat and then squatting with clothes on just to demonstrate what she called the proper position. She even linked a link showing how bowels empty better in a squatting position. Then you hear we are doing it all wrong by sitting down.
It looks like she was endangering everyone watching her video with the risk of falling off the toilet and breaking bones.
I have a solution that is much safer and s how to use western toilets to squat. Sit down on the seat. Lean over towards your legs as much as you can. If you notice, your bottom will be in a squatting position to easily empty your bowels. No risk of falling off the toilet seat either.
This morning I saw something advertised on tv as well. I think some people don't think or go crazy. The woman in the video didn't use toilet paper either. She had a hose down area. Might work if you are mostly clean already and never use public restrooms. Just a public service message in case someone tells you we are doing it all wrong in the west. Just lean over into a squatting position and you bottom is squatting and you don't have to worry about falling off the toilet breaking a bone.

Warning, it may be considered a shitty topic according to the girl.

Instead of moving your legs towards your chest. Do the safe thing and lean over moving your chest towards your legs. Same posture in my opinion with less risk as far as your bowels go.

I can see it now. crazyjoe shows up at the McD's, toilet stool in hand. Before the servers can stop him he's in the shitter clogging that toilet!
Brilliant!
I actually think squat toilets have advantages. They do take getting used to. But it usually takes me less time to do my business on a squat toilet. So that part is aces!
The bad part is places where they don't have a hose and they do use toilet paper. Since most (probably all - not like I've done a complete survey) squat toilets don't let you flush toilet paper you end up with a wastebasket full of used toilet paper. :(
At least for those who remember2wipe! ;)
This is EXACTLY the place to come for all bowel-related discussion! Frankly, I've been worried about the group's fiber intake for a long time.
No reason to squat, putting a small step under your feet to bring your knees up, while sitting on a regular toilet, does the same thing. You can feel the difference. Depending on the state of my poop, I suppose, sometimes I like feet-on-floor, sometimes I like feet-on-low-step.
Now, by far the most important point: use a bidet you fucks. Soooooo much better than toilet paper -- gets you far far cleaner, and perhaps more importantly, as the tissue back there gets more sensitive as you get older, it's a zillion times more gentle than toilet paper or chemical-laden baby wipes. If you guys only learn one thing from me from all my zillion posts, this should be it.
I noticed on the show naked and afraid they never talk about it except if they don't go at all for days. I suppose they use leaves for paper. That would take some getting used to.

Lol :D
