Poop The Natural Way

I'd like to note that most parts of the world that use the squatting position for their toilets are dirty filthy places...
 
Oh man... I had no idea.

Two years after his article on diverticulosis appeared, Dr. Berko Sikirov issued another indictment of the "porcelain throne" ? this time for causing fatal heart attacks from straining.

Some medical terms used here may be unfamiliar to the layman. "Valsalva Maneuver" means pushing down forcefully while holding your breath. According to the American Heritage Dictionary, this maneuver "increases pressure within the thoracic cavity and thereby impedes venous return of blood to the heart." Another technical term is "syncope" which means "fainting."

That health page is an awesome read. Too bad that wobbly device looks like a horrible accident waiting to happen (hehe).

Why don't they just manufacture toilets that are closer to the ground? That would be a better idea I think.
 
In those cultures, appendicitis,
diverticulosis, hemorrhoids, colitis,
prostate disorders and colon cancer
are virtually unknown

that's because they die of being eaten by lions before they can develop those diseases

hahahah man or woman! comfortably! think they researched that with a scientific study?!
 
i used the squat position when I went back to India in '95...not too bad, except one time I did run out of tp (we bought some with us), so I had to improvise 🙁
 
umm i need more diagrams of how you use this thing ?

and in the drawings below, wtf is with the little stool under the person's feet ?
 
LMAO! That's hillarious. It does look rickety though. I see it breaking and me falling into a toilet full of turds! That would ruin yer day.

You need to have a spiderman skills, like holding your hands on the side walls.
 
that thing doesnt look too stable... in fact, it looks like a tv tray with a hole cut out in the middle! did the inventor find a bunch of tv trays at a local garage sale or something, and while he was on the crapper eating dinner, have an epiphany or something?!

btw, this thread is sh*tty! sorry, couldnt resist. 😉
