Squatting Over A Toilet?

[Raizinman]

I just learned something that I'm still having a difficult time believing. I was having lunch with this girl and in the middle of lunch she excused herself to go to the restroom. She gets back a few minutes later limping back to the table. I asked her what happened? She said she fell off the toilet. It was a good thing that I wasn't eating at the time or I certainly would have choked while laughing. With a straight face, I looked back and said that I can't remember ever falling off the toilet? She said that men don't have to squat. I had not idea what she was talking about and asked her to explain. She said that all the stalls were extremely dirty and the toilet seat was also dirty. She stood up on the toilet seat and squatted. She told me that her leg slipped and she fell down and that is how she got hurt.

I was still, jaw dropped amazed! She told me that this is regular practice of ALL women and sometimes she will see very old women standing on top of the toilet seat squatting. How did this tidbit of information escape me my entire life? Why don't they put little steps or foot holders on the sides of toilets so people don't fall? I had always thought that since women must always sit, that the toilet seat would pretty much always stay clean? She tried to inform me otherwise, but it just didn't make any sense? Is this real? Are women actually bigger pigs in the bathroom then men?

I think that argument would only apply if that shit was REALLY dirty

 

[hellfreeze]

Some people do that...if I'm not mistaken some cultures tend to do that (I could be wrong though)

If I had to shit like there was no tomorrow, and the toilet was disgusting as all hell, I'd probably squat too...

Vatican City's public toilets are squatters... so even the pope has to levitate to drop deuces.

Many, many toilets in Italy are squatters.

 

[Captante]

Can't say I've ever actually stood ON the toilet myself ... hopefully her foot didn't slip into the bowl when she fell!

Most places now have the paper toilet seat covers... so just use those. If I have to, I will squat but I have never fallen... I don't see how that could happen really.

 

[yankeesfan]

Wow...what a brilliant idea! How come I never thought of that?

 

[blackdogdeek]

this does happen but it's not ALL women, only women from specific cultures.

my wife, who doesn't squat, caught a woman squatting with her feet on the toilet at work one time. the telltale signs were footprints on the toilet seat.

It's completely revolting to think that your ass might touch a surface that someone else's ass may have previously touched.


kidding. Sissies.

When women 'squat' over the toilet, it's not usually with their feet on the toilet seat. It's with their feet on the ground and their butts hovering above the seat. I don't know any women who do it with their feet on the seat. That would seem like a good way to end up with wet legs (either from peeing on them, or from the splashing toilet water.)

I think there may be some cultures that *do* stand on the seat to squat. My spouse works with a LOT of Indians, and he said that he thinks they might stand on the toilet when they are in the stall because he's seen shoe prints on the seat, facing the door, quite often.

otherwise known as "ass gaskets"

ass gaskets.
ever put down an ass gasket and see it get wet cause someone peed on the seat?

i don't use those. i'm a 100% squatter in public restrooms.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Nope, I sit on the toilet when I poo. It cuts down on the splash.

 

[Anubis]

seat covers or line it with TP if you are that much of a paranoid germaphobe

i think maybe the OP misunderstood. i don't think anyone can stand on the toilet and squat and keep balance, especially little old ladies.
hovering, with your feet on the floor, is where it's at.

I'm think it's just her. She was never potty trained correctly and as such she stands on the toilet. It's just her.

 

[AMCRambler]

I try not to deuce in the public restrooms. Work rest rooms excepted as ours are pretty clean. Never heard of actualling standing on the seat though.

 

[Mr Pickles]

Pickles are actually Cucumbers...

 

[SirStev0]

Was she Asian? The only girls I ever knew to do such were Asian.

A side note... apparently there is a strong evidence that squatting while dropping a D completely relieves hemorrhoids and in cultures that squat they are basically nonexistant.

 

[ViviTheMage]

wrong, my gf does not stand up on the freaking toilet.

psychooooo.

nor does anyone know

Ok, I completely understand squating over a toilet, but why the hell would you stand on the seat while doing so? I'm pretty short at 5'4" and I've never been to a toilet where I couldn't stand on the floor and squat (not that I've had first hand experience with all of them...). There is just way too much risk of 'falling in' by standing on the seat. And what would you do if you fell in or had to step into the bowl. *shudders* And standing on the seat, that's just to much splashing.

Dude, my legs would kill. Especially if it took more than a minute or so.

Besides, has there ever been a documented case of toilet seat-to-ass disease transmission in the history of the world?

 

[lokiju]

I thought women did the "hover" method of just holding themselves up slightly over the seat.
