The Only Time You Shouldn’t Squat…

My brother recently educated me on how to conduct yourself when confronted with diarrhea and a squat toilet. His opinion is based on a recent experience in India while visiting his girlfriend. Naturally, he got the Delhi Belly for a few days.  What I’ve gathered from our conversation is that the only drawback to the squat toilet is the inability to have an enjoyable explosive diarrhea episode without crapping your pants. My brother advised that the squat toilets have porcelain foot imprints for your feet, which you must avoid when you feel the onset of an explosion.  In order to avoid crapping your pants, he told me you must put your feet on an angle and then weave your hands between your legs to pull your pants away from the toilet.
