The Squat Pot

This has tortured me for a year now. I have absolutely refused to even attempt to pee in this toilet. Yes, it is a toilet. We call it the squat pot. The mental image of urine all over myself has prevented me from any contact with this thing. The other day, we were at the park & I really had to pee. This was my only option. I cowgirled up & did it. It really wasn't so bad. I didn't even pee all over myself. I should have tried it months ago. I will no longer hide from the squat pot. Thank you Japan for bringing me out of my "potty" comfort zone. All hail the mighty squat pot!

haha, that's hilarious. I don't blame you for not wanting to use it. I remember camping one time when I was a kid and I had to go pee so bad. There was no toilet so I had to find a bush and squat...lets just say, I will never do that again.

When I was 12, we went to Paris and that was the type of toilet I was offered at a really desperate point. In order to keep from peeing on my shorts, I took one of my legs out of my pants entirely and then just stood over it! Not sure how I would do this as an adult! Way to go!

Thankfully I've only had to use these to go #1. I sure hope I never have to figure out #2 on one. That would be quite difficult.

Oh my! This is what I have to look forward to when I visit?! YIKES!

Ew. I had a nurse while I was hospitalized with the twins that said squatting is the best way to do #2. So, if you could get a good balance and maybe not mess your socks, who knows?

That is one of my fears two. One of these days I might get the nerve to use one but until then no way.
