When I backpacked around places like Indonesia and malaysia - the poorer villages had squat holes for toilets.

Yes squat toilets are popular in Korea and also many homes in Japan. My friend in Okayama Japan has a squat toilet, and she informed me that there are many public squat toilets there. She prefers squat toilets and claims a woman is dryer after urinating in that position.
The body was naturally designed for that position, but the human body is very adaptable for survival.

I used to live in an apartment in connecticutt that had the original Thomas Crapper porcelain toilet in the bathroom. Evidently John was very proud of his invention, because there was a large cobalt blue cartouche design in the bottom of the toilet bowl surrounding the name Thomas Crapper. That is how the words "I am going to take a Crap" or "using the Crapper" originated. His bowls were highly glazed and more shiny than the new ones you see now and appear as new as the day they were bought.

LOL! Naw... I like to "go" and then "go".
