The Himeji Poop Exhibit

wow. the japanese have a lot of poop story books. I want to read them. I'm illiterate in japanese so are any of these books written in english?

I visited Himeji Castle back in 1964 while on a 30 day driving trip around Japan. The shit exhibit was not around then or I certainly would have visited it also.

Thunderbox, the Japanese are different but not necessarily weird. Bodily functions are discussed more or less openly, as they should be. The Japanese have a high degree of tolerance for what we would call "low humor". Many of them would make excellent PoopReporters.

PS: I have been happily married to a Japanese woman for the last 45 years.

Lol I like how they are in the heart shaped containers sitting in easter grass! The books are funny. I envy you, I wish I could have been there. I should make a poo museum and make some money.

Those little dooker's traveling thru the colon in the book illustration are great! POOPREPORT need's a poopreporter, translator in Japan.

From the producers of scat only in Asia folks!

Chief, I worked for a Jap company for a while and also had a Jap girlfriend for almost a year (not at the same time as the job). Great people, but weird....very weird.

When I was a kid there were those ubiquitous "Schoolhouse Rock" programs. "Conjunction Function" and such. There was one that I saw but no one else seems to remember that was about shitting. My memories are vague but from what I do remember it was a little girl being educated about digestion. The catch phrase was after digestion she would disappear into a bathroom and say "so I got rid of it". "Getting rid" being the end product of undigested food. ie shit. Anyone else remember this or am I just crazy?

For anyone who needs a little translating, gaijin means foreigner, wa indicates that shit (unko) is the subject of the statement kusai means stinks and the ne means something to the effect of isn't that right?
I might point out to gaijin that "unchi" is quite a common expression, especially when speaking to children.

I will never shit somewhere that only has that horrible, scratchy brand of toilet paper. That stuff sucks!

The worst poop memories I have of Japan is the dreaded "benjo truck". Back in the 1960s very few Japanese homes had a flush toilet. Basically they had an outhouse that was attached to the home so you could get there without having to go outside. There was very little odor since a quantity of lime was placed in the pit. This convenience was called a Benjo.

Periodically the benjo had to be pumped out. This is where the benjo truck came in.
Once the pumping process was started the
pit contents began releasing a rather stout aroma. If you saw a benjo truck in operation while you were driving you immediately tried to hyperventilate so you could hold your breath as you pulled abreast of the vehicle. Depending on which way the wind was wafting the stench
you might have to cease all breathing for one or two minutes.
