Why is defecating such a private task?

[Saint Nick]

I was thinking the other day, it would be fun to just sit on the pot with other randoms/co-workers and just talk about stuff.

Why does it have to be such a secret? Its just crapping. I mean, you can HEAR the other stalls, so why have them in the first place? Just think! Sitting around on the john talking to your co-worker chronies and bull shitting with maybe some people you never knew.

It could work.

no

If you can't figure out why, I don't think I want to share a bathroom with you.

I was at a naval base in the Philippines where none of the shitters had doors or walls. It was just a big row of toilets against the main wall in the bathroom.

The military guys are used to it i think, so when I (a contractor) went to take a dump, one of them came and sat down on the toilet right next to me (when there were like 10 others free).

Here's a thought. Next time you have to take a massive dump, take a video camera and record yourself and post it on youtube. I'm sure all the contorted facial expressions you make will make for LOTS of interesting comments.

That's a horrible answer... the stalls don't stop smells so what the fuck is your point?

 

[Gibson486]

because you risk peeing on someones shoe.

 

[skace]

my dogs don't even poop near each other, you figure it out.

Yeah, most people don't.

It's natural to not be near each other. Feces isn't exactly hygienic. Public bathrooms are a bit forced closeness for the sake of plumbing efficiency, but most normal people would prefer to go to the bathroom solo, in peace.

This idea sounds...

*puts on sunglasses*

...pretty crappy

YEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

 

[Gooberlx2]

Instinct? You're pretty damn vulnerable. Also, disease and poo often go hand-in-hand.

My cat is an exhibitionist.

Whenever we clean the litter box (almost w/o fail), she's got to jump in and show us what she can do. It's kind of rude actually.

 

[ahenkel]

I'm not timid when I have to shit, but I don't wanna make small talk with the dude firing out last night's chipotle burrito. I don't invite people in the bathroom with me at home why do it in public.

While in boot camp at Great Mistakes in the US Navy - during firefighter training at the fire school, none of the stalls had doors. You were also forced to line up in front of them. While in boot camp you are pretty much never far off from "at attention" or "at ease" both of which have you rigidly standing there looking straight ahead.

Thus I got to experience shitting with several other folks staring directly at me watching me do it, and I also got to experience watching several folks shitting.

It isn't fun or desirable. You don't want to talk shit like you are some kind of damn female when you are doing it. I imagine its like that in jail where you just get on, shit, get off as quick as you can.

I was doing a job around here, and near the property I was working on was a little group of trailers; about 3 if I remember right. I think they were all family, but I'm just guessing. We were driving past one day, and everybody was outside talking, and there was an old woman with her dress pulled up, sitting on a 5 gallon bucket amongst the group. Seemed like just another day to them :^D

The instinct part is correct.
That's the time to take a top tier predator... When they're distracted.

You would think nature would have evolved a code of ethics. Attacking your prey while they are trying to take a dump. That's just inconsiderate.

I am going to have to keep this in mind whilst hunting my prey.
