TMI!

If you like poop short stories, my book-writing partner in crime and I have written some doozies. We published 2 books of true(ish) tradie and blue collar stories about funny situations on the job. Poop type 6 comes up way too frequently at work.

I wondered if the comment section on this post would turn into an audience confessional. Alas, I’m a little disappointed.

The article, however, did not disappoint. I think being a mom has prompted some personal interest in (and desensitization to)this subject over the years.

This is very interesting. But isn't there a psychological component to going to the bathroom as well?

Yes, there is a lot more to bowel management than is covered in this post, including psychological aspects. This is merely intended to give some insight into how things work for people who are otherwise healthy and experience an acute lifestyle related interruption to their usual bowel behaviour. Thanks for reading!
