Personal experience, sir. In Italy they appear to take care of all such business standing up or at least that’s the impression I got with the various bathrooms I visited there.

The stories I could tell.

You’re getting to know me and Herself…

I’m going to trademark UniSpecies - it will come in very handy [and profitable] when the Aliens invade?

You have painted a lovely picture of me doing a Maori Haka early on a Monday morning as I pick my way across the floor??

The first thing that came to mind upon reading your response was something along the lines of “as long as your other half doesn’t mind…”, but then I considered what your reply to that would most likely be and I stopped that train of thought.

Can’t see any problem in making it a uni-species bathroom (new term?). I would suggest keeping a couple of pairs of those “shower shoes” handy for those midnight runs though. Of course you realize this is going to bring a whole new meaning to “the morning after” and the “Aztec two-step” don’t ya know.

Kirk - That is very good thinking. What I may do [to save space and building costs] is just convert the existing bathroom. After all, with shower heads and a hole in the floor it will serve all functions for all users irrespective of species?

I suggest installing another smaller bathroom altogether with nothing but a floor slanting toward a central drain that has a garbage disposal installed into it and four large shower heads in the ceiling for full coverage. Then Sandy can use that one to her heart’s content and all it takes is turning on the shower heads for a bit and running the disposal in case of any solids hanging in the mixture.

Of course you’ll have to spray it down with disinfectant once in awhile and venting to the outside would probably be wise especially if the prevailing wind was heading towards the neighbor’s place (install a good exhaust fan ).

Somebody took a dump on my coal-bag last week. I’m not quite sure what their point was supposed to be.
