I found a happy medium for the more fastidious and persnickety in here who are also fans of the poop. A poop post with purpose. Eat it and weep.

The Poop on Pooping: 5 Misconceptions Explained

By By Christopher Wanjek, Columnist 1 hour ago


Everyone does it. And many have developed a set of rituals and beliefs, some false, about the act of clearing one's bowels.



You might think that you know your stuff about poop, but misconceptions are common. Here is the truth behind five common misconceptions about defecating.
Misconception No. 1: Daily pooping is normal, and optimal.
The U.S. Army once encouraged its soldiers to perform three daily S's, two of which are shower and shave. This might imply that the first S, which stands for, uh, defecating, is a healthy daily routine one should strive for. But it is latrine efficiency, not long-term health, that's the Army's top priority.
Gastroenterologists quip that anything in the range of three times daily to three times weekly is normal, assuming the feces isn't too loose or hard. That is, regularity doesn't mean defecation should happen daily, but rather, that it should happen consistently. Frequency only becomes a concern when it changes suddenly, in either direction.
Constipation is caused by many factors, such as poor diet, dehydration, lack of exercise, jet lag or diet change while traveling, pregnancy and certain medications. Getting a good rest, drinking more water, exercising and eating a high-fiber diet of grains, fruits and vegetables should remedy constipation. If not, a paucity of bowel movements could point to (or lead to) a serious medical condition.
Diarrhea, or loose bowel movements, also is caused by many factors, most commonly by viruses, bacteria or an allergic reaction. Consistently loose bowel movements could be a sign of a chronic disease, such as irritable bowel syndrome. [5 Things Your Poop Says About Your Health]
Misconception No. 2: It's supposed to smell bad.
Poo may not smell like roses, but it shouldn't smell like a rotting swamp of roses, either. A truly awful-smelling bowel movement — something admittedly hard to quantify in writing — can be either a sign of an infection, or something more serious, such as Crohn's disease, celiac disease or ulcerative colitis.
Giardiasis, an infection of Giardia parasites, is one well-known cause of horrible-smelling poop. If you experience bad odor over a prolonged period when defecating, you should see a doctor.
Perhaps surprising, passing gas from morning through the night is normal and healthy, the natural byproduct of your gut bacteria digesting your food. But as with poop, consistently foul gas could be a sign of something serious.
Misconception No. 3: The colon needs a good flushing.
Colon cleansing is one of the worst things you can do for your colon and long-term health — despite its enduring popularity. At its most benign, colon cleansing is a waste of time and money. Recent studies, however, have revealed how truly detrimental the practice is.
In short, you cannot wash away the bad things without washing away the good things; but worse, there are no bad things to wash away. Those toxins and pounds of festering, impacted fecal matter? They don't exist.
With each "cleansing," you are flushing away beneficial bacteria and electrolytes. Nearly 1,000 species of bacteria reside in the colon and aid in the final stages of digestion, including water absorption, and the fermentation of fibers and vitamin absorption, particularly vitamins K, B1, B2, B7, and B12.
Emergency rooms regularly see patients who have hurt themselves by cleansing. Common side effects are dehydration, rectal perforations, air emboli, blood infections and a loss of the ability to control the muscles of the bowels.
There are no toxins in the colon that get absorbed in the blood to cause disease. This theory of autointoxication was proven incorrect more than 100 years ago. These toxins now reside in a virtual form on the Internet on hydrotherapy websites promoting, well, nothing but crap.
Misconception No. 4: Taking your time is healthy.
The myth that it's healthy to sit on the toilet for a prolonged time pervades popular culture. The author Henry Miller dedicated a chapter in his 1952 tome "The Books in My Life" to reading on the toilet. Even an episode of the sitcom "Seinfeld" featured the character George being forced to buy an expensive picture book that he took into the bookstore's restroom to read.
And magazines are found so often in people's personal bathrooms that one might think it is natural, or even beneficial, to relax on the toilet. Not so, for two reasons.
Studies have shown a connection between toilet reading and hemorrhoids. The theory, dating back to a 1974 study, is that prolonged toilet sitting during which the anus is relaxed, followed by repeated straining, irritates the tissues surrounding the rectum that help control bowel movements, called anal cushions. This can lead to hemorrhoids, or inflamed veins in this area.
A study published in The Lancet in 1989 reported that patients with hemorrhoids were more than twice likely to read on the toilet. A study from 1995 in the journal Colon & Rectum found that 40 percent of patients with benign anorectal disease read on the toilet. And a 2009 study published in Neurogastroenterology & Motility also found hemorrhoids sufferers more likely to be toilet readers.
What's not clear, however, is whether prolonged toilet sitting causes hemorrhoids, or is the result of this. Nevertheless, doctors recommend more dietary fiber, not more sitting, to facilitate bulkier and faster bowel movements.
The second reason toilet reading is a problem is filth. Myriad studies reveal how reading material and smart phones get contaminated with fecal matter when used on the toilet. It's hard to wash an iPhone.
Misconception No. 5: More pooping leads to more weight loss
Seems like this one is aligned with the laws of physics: The more that comes out means the less you are carrying around. Alas, it isn't (quite) so.
Many people take laxatives or drink "dieter's tea" with the hope of pooping out more of those calories. The problem with this approach, though, is that calorie absorption takes place largely in the small intestine. Laxatives do their thing in the large intestine, or colon.
There is anecdotal evidence the Asians unload more feces on average per day than Westerners; and considering that most Asian countries have far lower obesity rates compared to most Western countries, you might start to think there's something to the pooping-away-fat idea.
But what we are witnessing is the effect of a high-fiber diet, in which insoluble fiber provides a feeling of satiety without contributing many calories. That fiber comes in whole grains, beans, vegetable and vegetable skins, seeds and nuts — features of an Asian diet. High-fiber foods pack fewer calories per pound compared to low-fiber foods, such as meat and processed foods — hallmarks of a Western diet.
Fiber promotes stool regularity and vacates the body with impressive efficiency.

Ashamed of what, Tapatio? if you want pictures of shit go search for them. Or create a thread for folk to post those pix.

You complain a lot, dude.

If you want a forum that conforms to your expectations, go start one.

[Prospero]

No dude.... I do not "complain a lot". I am a moderator and try to ensure that this place runs smoothly, that fakes are exposed, that people get help when needed, spam is deleted, that material which people find offensive - i.e. insults to the girls, pictures like the ones that i was talking about when i started this thread are considered for suitability, that material banned here by the site owner is excluded and generally that the place runs okay. Like you i enjoy the wildness - the randomness, the unexpected etc etc... but I asked for the views of people here after getting some complains in PMs and acted accordingly.

And i don't need to apologise to you ... so if YOU don't like the way that the site owner Steven runs this site or his moderators execute their tasks then YOU butt out of here and go start your own site. Dude!

Who the fuck asked for an apology?

Hit a sore spot though, huh?

Amateur.

allowing assholes to continue posting might be the most difficult part of being a mod

Yeah I agree with that. However, Tapatio has been given a one month time out for his assholeness.

[Genetic]

My thoughts on the whole thing is that the term 'offensive' is subjective. However if someone starts up a shitting thread well it's up to people if they want to see that or not, but if you venture into it then you have no right to be offended by what you see. Posting potentially offensive or upsetting material in an unrelated thread is just being a troll.

Yeah I agree with that. However, Tapatio has been given a one month time out for his assholeness.

Can it be a month that lasts forever?

I have a question on the matter. I've bee posting gifs and pictures to an MMA thread over in the sports section. Some of those have been pretty gruesome (no poop but plenty of blood). I like the violent part of the sport and that's what I like sharing. Is that okay?

I'm not a mod or anything but part of MMA, boxing and other physical sports is that there will be gruesome aspects to it. I can't imagine anyone squeamish ever watching something like that so your pictures/gifs are on topic and relevant. I think the issue here is more to do with things being posted outside their threads.

Does Classical music and poetry belong on a forum about transsexuals?

Is this entire forum offensive to transsexuals that don't dress like whores, or post pictures of themselves fucking?

It's a General Discussion part of the forum and that means exactly that. Why should it be limited to transexuals? Most forums are specialised in a subject but have general areas. Is the forum offensive to non sex worker transexuals? To some probably, but again, offense is subjective. However, no one ever claimed that the purpose of this site was to spread understanding and fight the good fight of the transexual cause; it's here to make money as are the girls who post here.

I've had a few KID pics deleted, I was intentionally walking the line. I'd say my motive was loftier than chicks selling their shit here, but let's face it, 95% of the people here go to the picture threads.

I don't know what pictures you posted, but if you posted images of a sexual nature of minors then that's not "lofty" or noble, it's illegal and has no place anywhere.

Escorting in Europe is legal, in the US it is not. Prospero is a Gentleman in London, a criminal in New York.

Is my ART to be judged by faceless apparitions? Or a JUDGE named "GROOBY?"

I think you'll find that in most countries in the world sexual images of children are illegal and you'd be judged as a criminal by everyone. You really expect sympathy or think that you are some higher reason? I understand your point about legality being different in different countries, but are sexual images of kids legal in your country? Even if they are, it's irrelevant because the forum is governed by the law of the country that it is hosted in, which I believe is the US. Therefore by distributing (yes distributing) illegal material on this forum, you are breaking the law in the US and if there's an extradition agreement in place, you could potentially stand trial in the US for international distribution of child pornography. The internet is no different from travelling to the country you are posting to: you are bound by their laws.

Legally speaking, your images should have been saved along with the timestamps and the IP addresses you have posted from and those details passed onto the FBI (again if in the UK) or the IWF in the UK so you could be prosecuted.

I know exactly the pictures you deleted, Dino should be fined posting numbers for re-posting the same pics over and over. I'm pretty sure he reposts the same Metal songs, he could be sneaking kiddy porn or snuff porn in there, who knows...

Unlikely because his videos are from YouTube and as far as I'm aware, it's not possible to encode images or porn into a video without it being visible.

The most favorite forum ever for me, the moderator kicked me off every week, I would changes IPs and come back as a new person, and after about a week he would figure out it's me and ban me again. Eventually I infuriated him so much he turned off the NEW MEMBER button, which infuriated me. good times, good times.

Changing IPs isn't enough to stop a good moderator.

First and foremost, this is a porn site. It is here to sell porn, porn is repulsive and nauseating to most of my family. How about yours?

If I started listening to Dino's music all day ....I would probably get into it. If people here took a big hit of CRACK, they would probably get into it.
Crack is illegal everywhere. Not because it's great, ten times better than cumming, but because it's destructive.

So your point is that you should be allowed to post kiddie porn here until it becomes acceptable?

When you sign up to a forum like this one, in the terms and conditions it states that you are certifying that adult material is suitable to view in your region and that if it is not then you cannot use the site. It doesn't matter if someone finds porn nauseating or not; if they do then they are stupid for seeking out and registering with a site that they know will disgust them.

However, as a registered member, you are bound by the terms and conditions you agreed to and also by international laws. You can claim lofty ideals all you want but if it's legal to post something on a forum that allows that material and it is in the appropriate place then fine, but if it's not legal or allowed on that forum then it doesn't get posted. Under UK law, pornography is acceptable, but it isn't acceptable to post it on Disney's Club Penguin site; not legally, not morally; no ifs, ands or buts. Your entire argument is invalid. I'm actually surprised you haven't been banned.

[CORVETTEDUDE]

Not my thing....your call!!
