Unpopular opinion: toilets are perfectly shaped to make farts as loud as possible.
that awkward moment when a person you know (not friend otherwise i’d hold or gtfo to next floor) and you walk in and you both need to poop. .The restroom only has 2 toilet stalls side by side…
So what you do? If its a crowded place where many people come in and use the restroom then youre ok: you hope for the sound of people talking + water faucet sound to “suppress” your fart sound. .
What if it is not crowded? Well shit, then we are in a tugg of war. I just hope the initial noise is not loud.
Man, I used to teach and it was a shared bathroom between faculty and students.
No student could ever know I poop. It was a difficult facade to maintain.
Not even a little.
Unpopular opinion: toilets are perfectly shaped to make farts as loud as possible.
Not an unpopular opinion but a scientific analysis of the toilet geometry.
Unfortunately in engineering the toiler, we had to decide whether to A) let the poop and pee be carried away easy, with the down-side of big echo, or B) Have no big echo, but the poop and pee isn’t taken away easily. Now in most engineered products, we would find some sort of balance between the two, but obviously that wasn’t appropriate here.
as for your question, i used to but now i don’t. Worrying about that stuff just holds you back. I’m on that thing hunched over clutching my stomach screaming out “oh god… OH GOD it’s unbearable, I’m dying!!” Just to assert dominance.
it helps that public bathrooms stalls are (usually) not see-thru so with the right timing you can be completely anonymous. It’s elegant, like a masked ball.
We need to destigmatize farts and pooping.
Yes we should have communal toilets where we can hold hands and share our innermost feelings while shitting as a group.
And play games together
I don’t think anyone wants to hear your maggoty cum farts buddy
isnt this what glory holes are for?
Do you have a newsletter?
Like this?
Soooo… I occasionally monitor images posted to the instance and this one popped up and I just want you to know I had to go see where the heck it was posted and in what context. lol. So congrats on that. XD
Yes but with ten or twenty people.
Swedish outhouse toilets FTW.
Couldn’t find the bigger version on mobile, but this should do.
I’d love to be squished into that corner.
And of course randos ALWAYS choose to sit in the corner next to you when the entire row is empty.
That’s the best part.
After you sit on the still warm and slightly moist corner seat and a random stranger comes and cuddles up while you poop together.
It’s like social media.
You know those knees are touching
Those Roman poopers were unisex.
Destinkmatize?

I mean I try not to in public but if someone else does it, it just about makes my day, farts are so funny
In public, the sounds are funny, the smells are not. In private, you do you.
Lol, I can usually escape public bathrooms quickly enough to not need to put up with much smell, but you’re not wrong either!
No, the sound of a bath being filled doesn’t bother me.
If I hear someone on the phone in a public restroom I try to rip ass as loud as possible.
I’m not stuck in here with you, you’re stuck in here with me.
Someone did that at a supermarket bathroom I was in!
The guy was yapping away on his phone. I was washing my hands being annoyed. And suddenly, one guy said, “Fuck it!” And just blasted a massive fart shit.
The guy on the phone went silent. And I couldn’t help but laugh my ass off.
Yup. Bringing normal sounds into the bathroom is just as bad as bringing bathroom sounds into a normal room
I feel like no longer caring if strangers can hear you poop is a big part of growing up. Not to say I’ve reached that point.
I moan as I smear my feces on the stall walls. don’t tempt me to take it further…
shouldn’t this be in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world ? :P
Let it rip
Yes. I wonder, though, why? What conditioned me this way? Also, in some societies, such as Japan, concealing toilet sounds is encrouaged by those otohime devices in public bathrooms.
Interesting that the wiki says it’s only for women’s restrooms.
Also funny that some women just really need the real thing, the sound box isn’t good enough. Never mind the public toilet spraying your nethers with flush water while you do your business. I guess the bidet helps with some of that.
Well, drawing from feminist theory, it’s all about men being allowed to be rough, dirty, filthy, smelly, loud, taking up space (physical, emotional, whathaveyou), careless, inconsiderate, dominant, whathaveyou without losing legitimacy as real men. Women, on the other hand, especially in Japan but really in any current human society, are forced to be feminine (as per patriarchal norms, the makeup industry’s standards, heterosexual men’s sexual desires, whathaveyou) or else risk losing legitimacy as real women. After all, girls don’t poop.
Edit/link description: search results on duckduckgo for “girls don’t poop”, with the purpose of sarcastically pointing to some ridiculous Reddit conversations, memes and jokes that “process” or reflect women’s lack of right to self-governance and dignity.
I try and find the perfect position to make my farts resonate for maximum woyoyoyo effect.
No. Nature isn’t embarassing.
I have been embarrassed when I shat my pants from drinking too much though.
That sounds like a healthy embarrassment threshold. No notes.
The day after or while still drinking?
usually about two blocks from my apartment after walking home drunk. held it in for like 20m but I just lost it at the end man. it was brutal. it was also at like 2am so not like there was anyone around to witness the lump in my pants.
