I discovered recently a superior method of pooping that I wanted to share with y'all. Sitting on a toilet with our legs out at a somewhat 90 degree angle, the way western people do, is actually not good for you. Your "anorectal angle" in this position is such that rectum (the cavity above the sphincter) is at an angle with the sphincter. This means that instead of pushing poop straight out, you're pushing against yourself. This is supposed to increase the likelihood of constipation, hemorrhoids, colon disease and urinary difficulty / infections for women. The solution is to use a stool under your feet when you are sitting on the toilet so that the angle of your thighs to your torso is much closer, like when you're squatting in the woods. I find that this makes things go a lot more smoothly and quickly, and also that I'm doing less cleanup afterward. Here's a video advertising a product made specifically for this:
