    I always find it odd when people refer to emptying the bowels as a pleasant, enjoyable experience.

    For me, it is not. There is no pain or complications (normally), but it’s still not enjoyable or pleasant. It’s just shit I need to do, so that other things in my life don’t become extremely painful or unbearable. It ranks similar to washing dishes or vacuuming a carpet in terms of pleasure and enjoyment.

    So, if you find taking a dump pleasant, remember- you are lucky!

      I can only find it pleasent if I really had to go to the toilet but couldn’t for some reason, but it’s a pleasent feeling of release not a generally pleasent feeling. Like as if you had to deal with a very annoying person and doing almost anything afterwards feels pleasent.
