Seriously people, use the fucking fan. It clears away odors and covers up the sounds of your dropping a deuce. If you want to stew in your shit smell and revel in the music of your magical poop plops, do so in the comfort of your own home. If you’re a guest and the bathroom has a fan, turn it on. We don’t want to share.
Consider yourself lucky. Many older European homes don’t have bathroom fans. Some older bathrooms barely have windows.
No ventilation at all? I feel like every poop would become a shirtless poop in such a bathroom.
It is even worse in public bathrooms.
Europeans give Americans shit on public bathroom design, but the smell is a lot worse in European bathrooms generally.
Especially the ones with the lil poop ledge and a thimble of water
Considering many buildings don’t have air conditioning, you’re spot on.
Can confirm - mine has neither, it’s a challenge.
