I think western toilets are only more hygienic if some maintenance is done with the toilet otherwise squat toilets are little more hygienic as you normally only have contact only with your shoes and not your ass and other parts.

My biggest concern is the angle of ass to pants, you are looking at some potentially disastrous situations if you are off even a little.

My biggest concern is, what about when it clogs? Where do you run to when the little bowl in the floor starts flooding? Do eastern toilets have an emergency step you can perch on while waiting for a rescue helicopter to airlift you out of Shitstorm Bay?

Actually, I just perch on my Western toilet like a gargoyle. East meets West baby.

Haha! I've been using coffee tins since i first read this thread.

The only real difference would be my feet don't fall asleep anymore.

Lol this thread is so funny but actually is interesting. I want to learn how to do the snap shit as i call it. Where you do a shit and you dont have to wipe your ass because it comes out clean. Have only ever been able to do this a few times. I want to get to the point where i dont need to attempt wiping my ass because im confident it was a snap shit

Weirdly I've done this my whole life

Stick my feet on a stool and perch forward as much as possible

I can remember being 8 years old in the school playground. I asked the kid in my class with the bob-haircut and buck-teeth if he also lent forward whilst shitting but he said "nah, it gives me a tummy ache"

Serious question. Since this is a thread about shitting, do you guys wipe your ass with toilet paper or with something else? I know some dudes wipe their ass with baby wipes to apply moisture, because according to them, standard toilet paper really just pushes shit in your butt-hole even more.

I know another dude who doesn't even use toilet paper at all, and prefers to shower after going to the bathroom

Ha. I'd be quite concerned that one day the lateral force would break the bowl in two - don't you think about how the toilet obviously hasn't been designed for squatting every time you perch yourself over it?

Too much work. I'd rather use a bouday or however they're spelled.

In case of clog...I'd suggest just walking away without looking back

At home I start a bath but don't plug the drain and thoroughly clean my anus
after every shit. Then I wash my hands.

I read that the squatty potty only gives about a 1/4 squat so it will not give the full benefit of a full squat. This seems more like the real deal, but looks huge and is expensive. http://www.naturesplatform.com/index.html

Btw of if stand on you toes while sitting and lean forward it falls out easier too, for when your traveling.
