I've never seen a toilet like that before 0_0 And that second photo is scary. I don't think I would ever pee there. [XD]

Antagonist 06-17-2014 08:45 AM
The squat type of toilets are pretty common here. [yes] Traditionally we've always used those types of toilets here, but after the westernized culture became more popular we've got a lot of those sitting types too, usually in more 'posh' places or at home~

The second type...yeaaah those are kinda scary. There's been cases of people falling into them. [XD]

One of the scariest toilets I've been to was at Yellowstone National Park; the toilet was a little room with a sitting type of toilet in it, but the inside of it is like the second picture: a dark pit. Not fun at all to use in the middle of the night with no light except for your own flashlight. [gonk]

Lexadis 06-17-2014 10:38 AM
Woah what the hell is that second toilet about? [gonk] I was talking about the first picture [lol] I hate those. I end up splashing water all over [ninja]
And also, gas station toilets here are just...EEW.

Antagonist 06-17-2014 11:24 AM
lol Really?? I haven't had trouble with those, though I hate it when other people can't aim. [stare]

Hahahaha yeah I don't like gas station toilets either, though if they've just finished cleaning them then they're okay...they just don't clean them all that often so it's a bit of hit-and-miss. [XD]

Lexadis 06-17-2014 11:41 AM
[XD] Yes! And those buckets are dirty too [gonk]

haha I don't like the gas station either. It's so smelly. My sisters love that smell. Makes me want to puke, and I'm also kind of scared that inhaling it will not be the best thing for my lungs [ninja]

WHAT?! How deep do those holes go? [gonk] I'd rather pee/poop in the wild than go there and have the chance to possibly fall in. xD

I think those kind of toilets (the one on the first photo) are easier to clean than the "sitting" toilets. I've read somewhere that it's easier for you to poop when you're squatting. So I guess all you people who have those kind of toilets are pooping faster and easier than those of us who have sitting toilets. [XD]

Haha! My male friends used to always complain about this back in high school. [lol] But our toilets for men look like this: click meh for photo! I remembered them telling me that they do not use the one on the corner because it's usually the one that's the stinkiest.
They tell me things like these because I ask the kind of questions nobody really asks. [XD]

My sister told me that you kill your brain cells if you inhale that gas smell at the gas station. I don't know if she's saying the truth but I always end up covering my mouth and nose with my handkerchief while I'm at a gas station. [XD]

The chemicals, especially BTEX that are found in gasoline can cause numerous health problems. Burning of the nose and throat are common complaints from being exposed to fuel fumes. This usually dissipates within a few minutes of breathing fresh air. Headaches and dizziness are often a direct result from inhaling the dangerous vapors even in small amounts. Nausea, vomiting, respiratory distress and mental confusion can occur after being exposed for more than a few minutes. Inhaling the fumes can also lead to incoordination and eventually loss of consciousness. In cases of extremely high vapor levels, death can occur unless the person is brought away from the area and allowed to breathe clean air or given oxygen.
Prolonged exposure to gasoline vapors can cause irreparable damage to your body. Many people that work with fuel on a day to day basis have experienced memory loss as well as impaired muscle functions. At extremely high levels some of the chemicals in gasoline such as benzene are proven to cause cancer and leukemia in human beings. There is no proof that cancer is caused by low level exposure to gasoline fumes to date.
Decreased lung capacity and lung cancer can be caused by regular exposure to gasoline vapors at high levels. It can also affect your brain functions
[gonk] I'm glad I don't like the smell or inhale it then! [XD]

And one thing I've found strange around here is that men do not have that toilet! I've seen it in Japan but not here. They just have.. the normal toilets for men too [XD]

Sestina 06-17-2014 01:26 PM
I used to like the smell when it's just really faint but I ended up smelling it thickly once and I did get a headache. Dx

Lexadis 06-17-2014 02:22 PM
D: I don't smell it at all so I haven't had a headache or anything. People working at the gas station [gonk]

Sestina 06-17-2014 02:24 PM
I sorta have a sensitive nose when it comes to smells, good AND bad. xD

Depends on how deep they dug when they made the hole. [XD] Sometimes it can be reaaally deep...and because they rarely ever clean it out, sometimes children can drown in them. So not the best way to go. [sweat]

Yeah, it's been scientifically proven that squatting toilets are healthier than sitting ones. If you poo on a sitting type you get a higher chance of developing hemorrhoids.

lol I think almost all male-only restrooms have those urinating stalls. [XD] But the males do need the sitting/squatting types too ya know. [lol]

Wait... how do they clean those holes? O_O I'm a bit grossed out just thinking about it but I'm just too curious! xD
And I wouldn't like to die because of drowning from piss and poop. Dx

Oh. [XD] I was thinking for a moment there that maybe some places only have the squatting types for males too.

Antagonist 06-17-2014 04:47 PM
I'm not sure...I think they call a truck that's build for these kinds of things that have a motor and pump that sucks them all out into the truck where they're then taken somewhere to be disposed of? [sweat]

lol Unless it's a shared-type of bathroom, probably not? [lol]

Lexadis 06-17-2014 04:49 PM
There are! We have male-only bath rooms which only has squatting pans and the sitting one.

Antagonist 06-17-2014 04:55 PM
That's interesting. Didn't know they only have those there [:O]

Lexadis 06-17-2014 04:59 PM
Well, they must be shy to pee in the open [ninja]

Just imagine one of those trucks that's full of, you know, and it gets into an accident with all of its contents spilling everywhere...

Lexadis 06-17-2014 05:04 PM
YUCK. That being said, that's how we have our sewage system too [ninja] Not exactly a truck, but the drainage is build somewhere on the house grounds, deep inside the ground. If it gets filled, it's removed and cleaned.

Zira Angel 06-17-2014 06:59 PM
This is all so icky D:

I've had the pleasure(?) of using an American rural outhouse, and it's quite similar to the hole-in-the-ground toilet pictured above (second picture, under the Asian toilet), but it has a wooden seat like a bench built over the pit and they cut a hole for you to sit on. The one I used didn't have the seat cushion made of rolled-up newspapers, but I'm assured some outhouses have those.

They put quicklime in them to keep the smell down, but from what I can tell it doesn't actually do anything. My outhouse experience involved real toilet paper, but apparently they used to use newspaper, phone books, or old catalogs.

I'm just fortunate that I made it in and out before seeing, and potentially disturbing, the ginormous nest of "yellowjackets" that was hanging from the ceiling. I wouldn't have needed to relieve myself anymore by the time I'd run a mile to avoid being stung!

Zira Angel 06-17-2014 10:28 PM
I wouldn't use an outhouse that has yellowjackets in it, Veradear. I'd go into the woods, and be all, "Go fuck yourself, people who made that. You should have killed the wasps before offering."

Antagonist 06-18-2014 12:09 AM
Holy eff I would not have used that outhouse with yellow jackets in them!! [gonk] I'd find a bush or something...
