great squatting help!!!!
squatting is really great.

Poop has "negative" connotation because it stinks and is not pretty looking LOL !!!! I guess we all can agree with that !I certainly would not choose to be a "butt doctor" LOL of allllllll possible specialties ha ha- com-on, Tooty-baby - would you choose it ? XOXO It is just our destiny to look at the butt and our poop until it becomes "natural and cute" or we would go nuts otherwise LOL !
I am so sorry you jinxed your nice pooping helper and I command the jinx to leave your premises or I will come to smite it myself !!!!!

I think squatting makes sense...

My doctor thinks so also when I asked him about it, relative to our given anatomy.

Well... relative to my anatomy it is not LOL !!! My legs are much longer than my torso and it is very hard for me to "squat" even in the "natural environment"LOL , not to mention on top of the porcelain rim. Not that I did not try for a while It is absolutely more comfortable for the "hole" but not for the rest of the body and I also think it can be down right dangerous for older people - so platforms are way to go if anybody wants to experiment.
