    I assume she's Japanese( as in nationality) and you're not?

    I would guess that's because of the old fashioned toilets they have. Which I guess would be considered embarrassing mimic.'
    Nope, not at all. People squat in Japan all the time.

    Good guess, but no. She's Taiwanese, and grew up in Australia from when she was a baby.

    Well Aussies don't squat in general what with all the snakes and spiders that had evolved to kill Steve Irwin

    Australia is the only country that scares me to visit. I wanna go someday, but seriously. What the fuck?!

    I believe Australia has the highest ratio of poisonous/venomous plants, animals and insects to people on Earth.

    Canada, not so much, but the way one girlfriend lost her shit when she walked into a spider web while we were at the cottage, you'd have thought she had been jumped by a hundred deadly arachnids. Took me rushing her to the street (away from all trees and overhangs) and about ten minutes to calm her down.

    And that was the first time I got to deal with a powerful phobic response. Felt I handled things pretty well at 16, but wow, she went from calm and pleasant to utterly freaking out in about a second flat.

    I'm amazed at how common spiderphobic reactions are among some people. I've got a job where we have to work in the woods and as a result we're literally walking through spider webs all the time. Somehow, this bothers people more than the fact that we're also in areas that have poisonous snakes like rattlesnakes and copperheads. Several of the people I work with say they would much rather deal with the snakes than the spiders.

    I mean, seriously? More afraid of a tiny non-poisonous spider (I guess there's a few poisonous spiders out there, especially brown recluses, but they don't build webs or go in most places where we work IIANM) than a four-foot rattlesnake with a bad attitude? If a spider gets on you all you have to do is just brush it off. Don't get me wrong, I don't really like them and it's never fun getting a big mouthful of web while you're trucking through the woods but it sure beats having a rattlesnake strike at you from the middle of nowhere. I know everybody has their phobias but I really don't get it.

    Not a crazy ex story, but still, this just mystifies me.

    Its probably because it's associated with going to the bathroom that it's embarrassing (just a guess)

    People in Japan squat waiting for things all the time. Even schoolgirls, wearing skirts. Like, middle school girls. It's really odd, and vaguely disturbing.

    My gf says it's related to something her parents said about it being rude or something while she was growing up, but I'm still confused as to how "rude" equates with "shove the person over".

    Snakes get a bad rap. Most myths about them are false based on biblical passages. Snakes are also not fond of humans and stay away.


    Spiders though ? Everything about them screams death machine. Another bonus?

    You are as I type this three feet or less from at least one spider. They have made it into space.


    But I am wandering off topic and will regale you with more about nude pic girl.

    So I told her hell or high water I will definitely be up at her place Wednesday to take her to lunch.
    So far she's accepted. While I'm up there I'm getting the whole story on why she doesn't want people to know I post on her myspace page.

    I dated a girl who was so arachnaphobic it bordered on crazy. She once called me at 7 a.m. to come over to her apartment and kill a spider in her bathroom doorway.

    Otherwise she couldn't relieve herself, you see.

    Oh: Not crazy, per se, but I had an ex that was terrified of the prospect of people hearing her deal with her toilet business. Whenever I was at her apartment and she had to use the toilet, she'd turn her stereo way up and make me sit on the far side of her room, away from the bathroom door.

    I actually completely empathize with her and find sounds emanating from a bathroom to be extremely undignified. So, she's not crazy.

    Never been too scared of spiders, and I've been on a snake handling course so they don't bother me too much either.

    When they're annoyed at you, you better run o_O They eat damn near everything so you can imagine what kind of wonderful bateria is just waiting to wade into your bloodstream if it bites you.


    *back on topic*

    A good sign your new room mates girlfriend is crazy? She comes into your room, uninvited, and flirts with you while lying on your bed after having sex with said housemate.

    I'm glad she didn't hang around for very long.

    I've never understood being embarrassed by bodily functions, up to and including throwing up in public (ie - terrible food poisoning, which happened to a friend of mine). They're something everyone does whether they want to or not. To me that's like being embarrassed about drinking water or eating popcorn.

    I think I'd be more embarrassed by people finding out the stupid/immoral things I've consciously done.

    It feels kind of like pooping in public. I don't want people to see that. Yes, I know one is more voluntary than the other, but it's still embarrassing that you weren't able to make it to a private place to perform that function.

    You might just win the thread.

    ...

    Was she walking around naked and then suddenly had a fart/queef tag team when it was her time of the month?

    I mean, how the shit do you ACCIDENTALLY do that?

    And I have never been with someone who wasn't in tune enough with their cycle to not have a pad/tampon and a pair of comfort sweats on during their time of the month.

    I've been married for 3 years and we've been together for almost 9 and while we've peed infront of each other we don't just shit with the other one standing at the sink. We've been on the other side of the door talking tons of times. We usually only push the door to not all the way closed anymore, but the other person is usually off in the living room and if they wander into the bedroom (where the bathroom is off of) then that's their fault.

    Helps we also have two bathrooms.

    To be fair, she's Chinese and that's what they do there.

    I was playing Settlers of Catan with a bunch of Chinese girls one time and one of then was all, "I gotta poop." and another girl was all, "me too. Let's go." And they went into the bathroom together.

    I only had one toilet.
