Shower in which one can defecate

 Waterproof magazines?

It is nice to take care of any excretory matters before showering as to make sure everything is quite clean down there at least until it is time to go again. But sometimes the urge arises mid-shower. This does not happen frequently but I do recall several times in the past, sitting soaking wet on the toilet, looking forward to the remainder of my cleansing.

Furthermore, I find the idea of pooping while warm water runs over me quite appealing. It seems it might even relax the bowels.

What I propose is simply a two-head shower with a one piece molded-in toilet seat on one side.

       Some "efficiency" bathrooms have the shower over the basin and a stainless toilet. Tends to be a little hard on keeping the dunny-paper dry, though.

       Now that i think of it, my parents had one of those in their first home: an old trailer. It was the basis of several practical jokes.

       May as well add a cooker and a camp bed and throw in one of those multi-gyms - why bother leaving?

       Something about this idea bothers me.

       I don't have a problem relaxing my bowels, but this would relax my knees.

       I had to wash my hands very well after reading this. I just felt like scrubbing myself raw.

       I like it, the main problem of course is the tirds going down the drain.

       I just thought it would be neat to post the two slightly contradicitng ideas together. Reading all the posts was very amusing. Thank you. I love you guys.

       This is one of the cleaner deficating ideas here on halfbakery [+]

       What [wags] and [skinflaps] and [Blisterbob] said, just for "I find the idea..." although I can't deny it would work. Vote withheld.

       Yeah, I'm feeling a bit constipated now too.

       Even dogs squat while taking a dump. I certainly could not see my self emptying my bowels while standing up.

       If you prefer to poop in a sitting position, you *could* defecate in the bathtub.
—nihilo, Jun 05 2006
   

       yuck!
—FireElf, Jun 09 2006
   

       A garbage disposer might help with the dispersement.

       You could install a steam-proof mirror. It would help with shaving too.

       Vote withheld--I find this intriguing as much as I find my feces . . . fragrant. How will this be addressed?
—nayhem, Jun 10 2006
   

       When I read the title I was expecting a "shower with a garbage disposal" idea. That of course is no longer patentable due to prior art in the form of a very funny seinfeld episode. This, on the other hand, would be patentable, except of course that it has been published here. Could we maybe have that toiletseat thing have a separate drain and a flushing mechanism? The idea of showering with mr. hankey just isn't as appealing as the idea of defecating while warm water washes my fear, anxiety and tension away. Not to mention the cleanup of course...

       Not that defecating is awesome in particular, but it is definitely more relaxing for me to go in a warm room rather than a cold one. And showers are always relaxing. Definitely would employ a seated design, as suggested.
