The hole versus the toilet


Sean can have his South American bidets but I am holding out for the trusty old hole in the floor. When you think about it, gravity forces all things downward, our chins, our eyelids and of course, our bowels. When you squat over a hole in the floor, you are in the natural position to let loose. I hope I am not offending anyone. The big bonus, tho, is that they are hygienic. You don't have to touch anything that anyone else did. Here in India where the word 'dirty' has a whole new meaning for me, it certainly gives me an added measure of comfort!

By the way, this is the toilet in the hospital.
