This is interesting that others have been bothered/concerned by this.

My wife never knew there was a cross section of the peoples who stood up to wipe. I attribute that to being a female taught to poop by a female and never seeing a man completing his business.

The natural tangent to this topic is "Beyond your posture, which hand do you use?" Is it the same hand you that retrieve your wallet with? Being one hand feels more 'natural' to reach behind with, I will wager that it is the same one.

That being said, I have always held men who put their wallets in their right hand pockets in disdain. Assuming that is also the hand they wipe with, they are shaking hands with a potentially fouled hand.

The wallet belongs in the left hand pocket. Suit designers for years have designed the pockets for the wallet on the left. Traditionally, if there is only one pocket on the trousers it is on the left. If there are two pockets, the one on the left has the button to secure the wallet.

Remaining seated to wipe is also inefficient. With each drag of the mess you would have to lift the paper up high enough to see it in order to know when you were clean enough for your own standards. Then stuffing it back into the bowl has the potential of dragging the side of the leg.

Standing already has your attention focused down and the bowl is a clean shot for the used paper.

It seems so painfully obvious.
 


what i wanna know is ..... how does a blind person tell when their done wiping ?
what came first the chicken or the egg ehh
 
I just knew there would be a stand majority, sitting WTF?! I do like a half stand and wipe, then I become fully erect for the final wipes. If you're sitting down how can you tell if you have finished wiping yet?
 
I always thought those who stood where in the minority, me being in that group. I've tried the sit method and all I can say is no reason to make shitting a strenuous activity when you don't need to.
 
If I've got the squirts, I give one wipe sitting down because I don't like my cheeks sliding on the way up. I finish my business fully erect ... what a surprise

i never really fully understood the mechanics of wiping while sitting.

don't you risk your hand hitting the water and/or pile of shit in the toilet?

I didn't even realize some people actually sat when wiping. Isn't reaching there while sitting awkward?

Here's a corollary question:
What do you do with the toilet paper after wiping, flush it down the toilet or throw it in a wastebasket?

I was really surprised to find that my Asian roommates don't flush their shit-covered TP, but just throw it in a wastebasket where its left to stink...
 
I don't understand why you would stand while wiping - you risk sloshing around all the crap on your cheeks. I just sit, and since the seat is a good half foot above the water, you don't have to touch the poo.

I guess it depends where you are in the world, and how toilet is made that depends on the experience you have while crapping.

I would venture to say that we all have the same amount of experience with bowel movements. Anyone?
