Pooping in the nude

I came across an article discussing benefits to pooping naked. I prefer to poop in the nude whenever possible, so was pleased to see an article claiming it is beneficial to do so.

I’m not sure about the benefits of pooping naked as opposed to clothed if you are stilll using a toilet. You might feel ‘freer’, but physiologically there is no diffference if pants are at your ankles. But I definitely believe in the ‘squat’ vs the seat as the best/proper way to eliminate our waste. No other animal on earth ( and sorry, we ARE ALL ANIMALS) requires a special seat to defecate! Billions of yrs have passed and every other land animal squats. 2, 3, 500 yrs of humans becoming ‘civilized‘ andusinng seats, cant undue billlions of years of evolution on this planet.

Clothes do not impede defecating.

Squatting vs sitting is a matter of personal preference and many people will prefer sitting to squatting for ease of elimination.

While if is true that currently it is a’preferece’, there is no doubt in my mind that toilets are ‘unnatural’. No other species on this planet requires a ‘tool’ to eliminate their waste! Aside from eating and breathing it is the most natural thing every single animal does! Only humans have become so lazy as to require a ‘helping tool’ to perform a process that has evolved naturally over billions of years.

It isn't billions of years.

It's only about 350 million ago when amphibians first set foot on land. Before that fish pooped suspended in water.

Depending on what the temperature is, sometimes I prefer to poop nude too. Definitely like my pants & underwear all the way off, to spread my legs farther to clean better. Sometimes it's more comfortable to poop without a shirt on. And if the shirt tends to hang long, I feel it's better to remove it.

If I am out in the woods naked, sure I will poop nude. I am not going to get dressed just to take a dump.

If I am sleeping nude and I have to take a dump unless it is really cold out I will not put anything on to do it.

I spend a lot of time out in our woods and I did build a composting toilet out there. It is a lot nicer to be able to sit than to squat or hang from a low tree branch. Plus I keep an ammo can in there with real TP which makes the entire experience a lot nicer.

As an aside, ammo cans are great for TP in the woods. They have good seals to it stays dry and the bugs and critters can not get at it.

This is an odd but funny thread.

I don't feel the need to get naked to poop. I think it's more of a guy thing. I used to baby sit a lot when I was growing up and it was always the boys getting naked to poop. My husband used to do this when he was a kid too. I asked him why he did this and he said because he doesn't llike to be confined while he is pooping. You men are so weird, lol.

You are still young, . . . , let me be your baby 😘

Wow! 350 million years of fish pooping in the nude. Now about this pooping while suspended in water. Have not tried that YET.

Invertebrates have done it about 100 million years before fish.

Now about this pooping while suspended in water. Have not tried that YET.

I've wondered what that would be like more than once, but don't want to deal with the clean up after, so am still wondering.

I wasn't going to bring the sit/squat debate into this. Since it came up, I will say I first found a simulated squat awkward, but now prefer that to sitting as well. Based on that, I think it's likely I would prefer a real squat also, if I could do that close to the ground.

I'll admit that when given a choice, I prefer to take my pants and underwear completely off when I poop. I don't like it when they're bunched up around my ankles while I'm pooping. I don't consciously think about it that much, but I'm guessing it's just a cleanliness thing that I have. When you're sitting there on the toilet taking a crap and your pants are down around your ankles, I feel that you're more likely to get them "dirty" in some way. Plus I like the extra freedom of movement with nothing on from the waist down.

I will poop in the mornings and in the mornings I remain naked walking around the house well into the morning hours. So pooping naked is pretty much how I do it. But when I do have the occasional trip to the toilet in the afternoon, I will take off everything below the waistline and sometimes even my shirt. Living in Sarasota, I don't have to wear much clothing so shedding clothes is easy.

Now why I do prefer naked over clothed? Well it is a cleanliness issue for me. I don't want my clothes anywhere near my poop. Secondly, my bathroom has a bidet and so after I am done on the toilet I move over to the bidet for a good soap and water wash down and any clothing would just get in the way.

If it’s warm in the house I prefer to be on the toilet nude. I don’t mind being nude from the waist down, but my arms and chest get cold if it’s not a comfortable room temperature. Nothing better than being comfortable and in a comfortable position enjoying one of the great pleasures of life

Maybe in the mornings before my shower but usually I'm clothed

I recently spent two weeks at the family farm. This is the first winter that it has not been occupied all winter long. Though the water was off, the pipes were not throughly drained and several pipes froze and burst; we also had two toilets crack. The repairs began but were not completed during the two weeks that I was there. Consequently, my toilet was a bucket for the duration of the trip. When I had to defecate in that bucket, I found it much easier to be nude and hated to do it when I was clothed. Being nude allowed me to more easily squat lower over the bucket and spread my knees further to better hit the target. Otherwise, I don't care if I am nude or clothed when sitting on a toilet.

It's pants off for me 99% or more when I'm at home. I use a "squatty potty" bench at home too, and it is probably safer and definitely easier getting on the pot and putting my feet up on the stool without anything around my ankles. Shirt may be on or off depending on wether I already had one on or not. Cooler weather shirt is usually on, warmer weather (especially mornings) it's usually off.

Well I know around here the only time any of us has anything on it either when someone comes to visit or we are on our period. O

There are advantages of doing everything nude. I knew we don't do half as much laundry compared to other people we know. We don't have to wrestle with pants and such to poop. It is more comfortable. If you don't have a bidet you can always spray and wash a little in the shower.

I try to no longer poop. I much prefer to eliminate via enema expulsion. However, if I don't give myself enemas at 3 day intervals it is likely I will poop on the 4th day. When that happens, sitting is just fine. Before I was into enemas, I was as regulae as a swiss watch and sitting was always fine.

I always have a poop call before i get in the shower so i am already nude, after i am done i get on the bidet and clean off then get in the shower. if i have to go during the day i just make sure that no articles of clothing are in the way.

Seems to be pretty much the same thing.

I guess that if it's your choice it is OK, for me it's kind of nice when everything gets together and works right for a bit on it's own. That doesn't mean that I don't like enemas, just that I like it when it's doing what it is supposed to.

If it weren't for toilets, how could people sit in quiet peace and serenity for an hour reading the newspaper?

I will poop naked and prefer to do so. After pooping, I wash myself on a bidet and clothing just gets in the way. I usually have 2 BMs in the morning and so I am not fully dressed and often never dressed.

I just feel pooping nude is more functional. I don't want any poop to ever come close to my clothing. Cleaning myself after a BM is much easier when nude.

I must also admit I like being nude and don't get dressed till late in the morning when I absolutely have to.

Women wear skirts and dresses. We have to make sure to lift the tail side of the dress so it doesn't flop into the toilet water behind us.

How to men get feces on their clothes? I can see it in an Asian squat toilet but not with an American or European "sit down" toilet.

That assumes there is nobody banging on the door after five minutes demanding to have their turn. Here's a question along the same lines. If it weren't for traffic jams, when would people find time to text and yammer away on the phone? My take on both is a car is for driving, and a toilet is for relieving oneself. A bench in a park is probably a better place on a nice day to read the paper for an hour. To each their own I suppose.

I guess I need to say BAZINGA more often.

I read the article about pooping naked. There are a LOT of assertions that don't have any back-up. If you like to poop naked - just do it. I don't see any benefit from being naked or any deficit from being clothed (other than not dipping your skirt shirt etc into the toilet).

I poop when I'm in the mood, not nude...

@SwitchableSusie OK, seemed like a serious enough observation to me. Guess our sense of humor differs somewhat.
