In hungary too in some older toilets. Tbh its better because of less splash.

recarsion ,

If you regularly need to take stool samples like me it’s easier as well. On the downside it’s smellier.

elucubra ,

Why smellier?

SoleInvictus ,

In the more typical style of toilet, the poop is quickly submerged in water, reducing the smell. With the shelf toilet, it remains in the air for all to smell.

It smells like hell on a hot summer day.

I had these in a few houses in Germany. I call them trophy shelf toilets.

bricklove ,

Did you have the light switch outside the bathroom too? That way your friends can make you poop in the dark

lgmjon64 ,

Of course.

Raiderkev ,

Lol I’m in the states, but one of my friends houses had this “feature” growing up. I definitely turned the light off on him a few times. To top it off, this bathroom had no windows so it got fucking dark in there. It wouldn’t even work today, everyone has phones w them now n would just use that after you turned it off. Kids these days…

Etterra ,

I’ve never had to deal with this, but I always plug in those blue glow night lights in the bathroom so they don’t crash into things when I go to take a piss in the middle of night.

BluesF ,

Oh, is that not a thing some places? I think the majority are outside here in the UK, generally electricals are not allowed inside the bathroom (although I’m not sure this actually covers light switches as I’m sure some of them are in there…)

fakeman_pretendname ,

I thought the pull-string light switch inside the bathroom was the standard in the UK?

I’ve only seen switches outside bathrooms in the last 5 years, in recent “having the bathroom re-done” cases.

It might be an age of house or regional thing though.

bitwaba ,

I think it’s against electrical code. You can have a pull string because the wires are on the ceiling which carries the same risk of getting water in it as the light itself that is also on the ceiling. A wall switch would be lower on the wall and has the risk of wet handed people coming directly in contact with it

Sometimes you’ll see those “shavers only” sockets in bathrooms, which are different from your typical wall outlets in that they have a GCFI (also called RCD), and/or a built in fuse to limit current, and have a floating ground.

The light switch and light is likely tied to a “live loop” system which runs 230V, and has a 5 or 6 amp non-GCFI breaker on it. That is considerably more dangerous for a wet human to come in contact with.

GlendatheGayWitch ,

In the US, it’s extremely rare to have a light switch outside if yhe room with the light. Usually there’s a lights witch and a couple sockets in the bathroom by the mirror.

Still better than a light sensor in a communal bathroom… outside of the stalls. That’s how it is at my workplace. If I spend a bit too long pooping, and nobody else comes in to poop at the same time, I end up in the dark. Then when I have to wipe, I have to either risk opening the stall door and wave into the room, with my dirty ass hanging out, hoping nobody happens to enter the bathroom at that time, or wait patiently for someone to come in and reactivate the light. Makes me wonder how blind people check their wiping: do they go on flavor or smell?

Freefall ,

Haha, buy some of those super cheap pop lights for closets and use double-sided M3 tape to put one inside every stall 🤣👍🏻

elucubra ,

Or turn the flashlight on your phone on

Freefall ,

Or EDC a Warrior 3 and turn on THE SUN…but nah, I was going for the commentary of the lights being installed more than the actual function of them.

Comments on toilets of France, England, and Germany by Slavoj Zizek: youtube.com/watch?v=8mtZmBvat4k

Another good bit (not in the video) is that Zizek thinks that’s why Germans can endure great pain and sacrifices for an ideal…if you are strong enough to observe your shit for health reasons, there’s nothing you can’t do!

CptEnder ,

French toilets are BIS. Large, deep bowls with great pressure and a second commode for the greatest modern invention, the bidet. The French don’t fuck around with their shit.

Using “bis” for toilets is funny, like you’re grinding a raid at the hardware store hoping for an epic toilet drop.

Jumpingspiderman ,

German toilets are like that too.

Maybe at Ren Fair

Sabre363 ,

How else are you supposed to flush your nuts

ReallyActuallyFrankenstein ,

I’m confused, isn’t this a better spot for the drain hole? When you sit facing the wall? So you have a shelf for your comic books and chocolate milk?

Lucidlethargy ,

It looks like it’s designed to soak your balls if you flush mid-poop. I’m not into this.

I understand the Dutch may have different tastes, though.

Edit: if you go about things butters style, you’ll get an unhealthy butthole douching.

Schmuppes ,

Serious answer: The design had easy stool sample collection in mind.

pigup ,

I’ve blasted this all over Reddit back in the day and now I’ll blast it here: HOW OFTEN ARE THE DUTCH COLLECTING THEIR STOOLS THAT THEY NEED THIS KIND OF TOILET IN EVERY HOUSEHOLD? THEY USE IT EVERY DAY AND NOT JUST AT A DOCTOR’S OFFICE OR A HOSPITAL WHERE YOU WOULD THINK THAT STOOL SAMPLES WOULD BE COLLECTED OFTEN.

To this day no one has ever given me a reasonable believable explanation that makes sense. I’d be happy to hear that “all the greedy corporate toilet makers didn’t want to change their design to save money and now we’re all stuck with this dumb toilet blah blah blah” or “we Dutch folk have a special device to sit on that you don’t see in this picture that makes the design of this toilet sensible” or even “we simply love looking at a big stinky pile of s*** every time we take a dump you wouldn’t understand we’re Dutch”

I stayed in hotels and motels in the Netherlands and they all had the stupid toilet and it stanks so bad and they don’t believe in ventilated bathroom so you just have to open a window and smell it and your wife and kids have to smell it too. it’s so dumb. I ended up flushing every single turd one by one just to survive.

BruceTwarzen ,

We had these here as well and i have no idea. The only thing i ever heard that made sense was it was easier to take stool samples. That makes some sense, but why would every household need them?

That way you can use the shelf for your chocolate milk and comic book
