wootwoot · 11-19-2005, 03:26 PM

SochBAT · 11-19-2005, 03:37 PM

WTF mate?

xka24detx · 11-19-2005, 04:19 PM

i dont know about the whole toilet paper and electric toilet thing.. but i do remember watching something on discovery channel or travel channel.. and they had some electronic toilet that yeah cleans you.. squirts water and even had a brush i think

**mrmephistopheles** · 11-19-2005, 04:39 PM

holy misinformation batman.

They do have electronic toilets with all sorts of functions (warm seat, clean ass with water, sing), but they're not common.
As far as not 'believing' in TP? How do you think ppl wipe their asses? The 3 seashells?
In fact, the Japanese believe so much in TP that companies will print little advertisements and stuff them into little packs of toilet paper (just like those little plastic Kleenex packs) and hand them out at train stations. This is mainly because most public restrooms won't have a supply of TP on hand.

Most public restrooms won't have a western style toilet, either.
They usually have something like this:

As far as the electronic toilets go, they usually look something like these:

Japanese don't believe in toilet paper, they just drift around the lid to clean themselves.

I feel for the curator of the sticks...

kuramaya · 11-19-2005, 05:25 PM

we piss in the bushes over here.....

Now in Thailand, at most public restrooms, there is no Toilet Paper, you have to buy from a machine outside the bathrooms, usually about 2 Baht (41 to the dollar)....as far as Japan, I have always seen TP when I needed it...like mentioned they hand out little kleenex types packs everywhere you go...and the chicks are usually hot handing them out..I love camgals

non2os13 · 11-20-2005, 12:54 PM

they do have toilet paper. the toilet seats are heated. that is an uneasy feeling to sit on a warm toilet seat and think that another person was just on it. i have a video somewhere of me playing with the toilet at the hotel. it has some pretty strong water pressure.

nrg · 11-20-2005, 02:43 PM

i've heard people using the toto electronic toilets seats. and from their reviews. they say it's much better than modern toilet paper.
I've notice that alot of home building tv shows would feature these type of toilets too.

910clubs · 11-21-2005, 03:49 AM

people in the other side of the world think using tp is just plain dirty

Ghettokracker71 · 11-21-2005, 03:02 PM

)

All the shitters I saw had TP. Even in the palace:

s14dr1ft3r · 11-22-2005, 10:13 PM

haha...this thread is awesome. Its good info as I'm about to be stationed in Japan. But I've also seen quite a few of those "squat" type toilets in a lot of the arabian gulf countries like Bahrain and Oman. UAE had som NICE toilets though. Most of the sqatters that I had to use smelled like no one had cleaned them in months...almost like a semi-permanent porta-potty. I think I'd rather shit in the bushes.

SilviaNinja240 · 11-22-2005, 11:09 PM

at least squat toliets are probably the most sanitary way to go to the bathroom

Come a long way from those sticks in the process...

SochBAT · 11-23-2005, 12:56 AM

Very informative.

Some people just forgot the stick all together, and used their fingers.

All hail, mighty finger.

Krinkov · 11-26-2005, 02:54 AM

haha, yeah this triped me out to, in Japan theres 2 types of publis toilets, the super futureistic jetsons crapper with preheated seats, ass washer (2 speeds) ass dryer, and even music! Or a hole in the ground you have to squat over like a caveman.

heres more pics from my recent trip to Japan, good stuff!

BOROSUN · 11-26-2005, 03:57 PM
