I actually prefer these. No dirty seat, most flush like normal, and for my anatomy at least, the squat position keeps everything clean. Like it’s the way we were meant to go.
Can’t imagine trying to balance on the rim of a bowl, though. Anyone confused by western toilets must think we’re nuts.
Just smells terrible because no water to cover it up. Also need to be careful with your pants/underwear that are around your legs and still near the bowl.
I never really figured out how to use a squatter toilet properly. Are you supposed to take off your shoes and pants? If not, how do you avoid pooping right into your pants? I almost always avoid these toilets unless I can’t hold it any second longer.
How do you go in the woods?
If you squat fully, your butt is behind your legs and for women anyway everything points more or less down. Waist band pulled just to your thighs so shorts end up above your waist completely and pant legs will be in front and to the sides. A skirt or long shirt you might have to wrap up from behind and hold in front of you. I’m no expert, but it seems to work out

Huh. I see. Thanks. Will try this next time I use a squatter toilet.
