Actually, that posture isn’t quite enough. As reported quite a few years ago on PoopReport (quite SFW, don’t worry), the human body is designed for squatting, not sitting. While raising your legs on a stool is good, it’s still putting strain on your body. If you’re interested in pooping for a healthy tomorrow, follow the link above…
I’ve always been at loss… I could never crap effectivly. Now with this guide, my life is saved. It should be federally mandated to be placed in all public restrooms.
I feel its more accurate to say that I have seen non-’arvid ek’ toilets in China. The Arvids are everywhere, although the big cities are succumbing to toilets of the west – what have we done to those billion people.
Ha – I’m not sure I need to – or in fact – can buldge out my abdomen any further. Useful information though – I’ll try it after lunch – tnx for the linkTydirium
Oh, people. Are you such recalcitrant (or unregenerate — or simply necessary and/or habitual urbanites) that you’ve yet to realize that it simply feels better to squat and ’shit in the woods’ (or desert . . . or what-have-you)?
At which steps does one begin and then cease weeping?
I, for one, am grateful for the instructions.
I can’t count how many times I’ve been told I’m full of shit.
Well, no longer!
(I’m here all week.)
Also, is it me, or is it the foot rest where most of us fail?
Damn! All these years, I’ve been using the foot rest as a booster chair. This explains a lot.
That’s great and all, but I’m stuck at “how to wipe”. Help!
Correct me if I am wrong, but aren’t those the crapping directions for anyone living below the equator?
I got to step four and I thought “I’m already doing all of that!” Then I realized that there isn’t a step four.
I need to run out and get a fancy labeled foot rest like that one.

Heavens no, Mr. David Gibb. These were the instructions those above the equator took back with them after colonization.
Arvid Ek patented a toilet in 1922 that allowed one to both squat and raise the feet. Don’t know why it didn’t catch on.

I have seen the Arvid Ek toilet in China.
The postition of the arm is perfect for reading the paper. Is this good toilet practice?

Can a gimp be substituted for the footstool if you don’t happen to have a footstool handy?
I was having difficulties because I’d forgotten how to take a dump. Thanks for the help. Caca. Poopoo. Dumpy. Grunties. Bush Is A Bastard.

At the same time? Sounds uncomfortable. Was this for zero gravity environments?
