    Well I think that if people are "different" in a way that is generally discouraged by society, then it is more conducive to their well being to try and hide it.

    Perhaps it is because taking a shit reminds others that you are in fact a biological being with a place in nature rather than some spiritual ego dettached from reality.

    The sex thing is probably a big problem for some people because it leads to children of course.

    If you've ever read some Robert Anton Wilson, he makes the point that most humans use feces as an insult because primates used to throw it at each other. For example: "shove it up your ass" "I don't give a shit" "Eat shit and die" "Poop on you."

    Different social/physcal environments will necessitate different adaptations within specific societies. This takes the form of morals/values, etc and become part of the culture. There is no instinctive explanation.

    This is a weird topic, but it makes sense.

    One thing I have observed with my kids, my soon use to have his "pooping" spot, were he would go to a corner, or place in the house to poop in his diaper. I always thought this was some sort of instinct. Now that my daughter is at this age, she is starting to do the same thing, she has her special place to go and poop. They also do not like to bothered, or spoken to when they are concentrating on the job. (who does)

    Just an observation that I thought was strange, and wondered why we were built this way.

    I'm a little late here but I read a post by Olaus and just about shit my pants laughing... This person stated that 'Eskimos' deficate and have sex publicly because it was socially acceptable and, suggested that western society did not do either publicly because it was a social hangup.... furthermore....

    To which Olaus responds:


    Well, I'm no anthropologist and I can tell you with certainty that the Inuit did not deficate and copulate publicly because it is socially acceptable. Back in the early part of the 20th century - the early period of incursion - the Inuit lived primarily in snow houses (called Igloos) and 'skin' shelters. Neither were very large in size and mostly contained a single area or room. When it came to having sex other people would sometimes be present, it couldn't be avoided.

    As for deficating in the 'living room' in front of others; the Inuit only did this in Igloos, and why? Because it was tooooo damn cold to go outside. Who the hell wants to go outside and drop yer drawers in -50 degree celcius weather? That just don't make sense. Also, it wasn't like they could go behind a tree to fuck or shit - they lived high above the tree-line on the tundra.

    In conclusion, contrary to Olauss' anthropological view that the 'Eskimos' deficated and copulated in public because it was socially acceptable, I offer a more logical answer: The Inuit copulated and deficated 'seemingly' in public only because of environmental factors, and not because they wanted to or that others wanted to watch.. I offer evidence to this claim by referring to modern lifestyles of the Inuit - they live in homes with bathrooms that have doors on them and sleep on beds in bedrooms with doors on them..... Why? Because it's COLD outside!

    EDIT: Here in the south I have seen 'free-spirited' ladies performing oral sex on men and women publicly, come accross couples unable to withhold their sexual urges and 'fuck' infront of me and witnessed countless men and women deficating anywhere and everywhere. On the other hand, while I lived, worked and studied all accross the Arctic I never once saw the things I saw in the south in the north.
