I picked "To my knees".

Wouldn't "Below my knees but not around my ankles" be alittle hard to do?

Unless you hold your pants with your hand or are wearing pants with a tight elastic waistband, the pants would fall around the ankles anyway.

Pants? Whats pants?

For some reason my cat likes to come sit on my lap when I crap so I prefer to have some protection. I keep them a little higher than knees. I really like to take my pants off but have found it painful when she over shoots my lap.

I pull them down to mid-thigh.

My husband puts them around his ankles and complains that the cats try to jump in them while he's going.

What do you mean you didn't see it? It was right next to the toilet!

Dammit Bilgepump, put your pants on.

I chose to my knees. I like to have a little cushioning for my elbows while reading my Fangoria magazine, so to the knees it is.

I always drop my pants down to my ankles. To just my knees doesn't seem proper.

I may occasionally take my whole pants of if I'm in a good mood, or if I know I'll need a little less dead weight.

Some are born crappy, some achieve crappiness, and some have crapiness thrusted upon them. (Do NOT be the last one)

I take them off. It's much more relaxing to shit when I can spread my legs out and squeeze out a dirt loaf without any restrictions.

I have also been known to take my pants (and shoes) off when I shit in public crappers. For some reason the average public crapper is built in such a way that it slams my buttcheeks together when I leave my pants around my knees or ankles. Then I get a poo crayon that leaves a million wiper chocolate strip in my ass. Blech!

Behold! My new farting super power! BRAPP!!!

I had a friend who would drop his pants to his ankles while using the public urinal just for laughs. Gotta admit, it was pretty damn funny to see the looks on other urinators faces.

What's so funny 'bout poop, love, and understanding?

Can't do that, I'm trolling for a bottom feeder.

___Voted for the knees, so I can hold my magazine like daphne. Careful who you discuss these polls with, I asked my friend nurse tomain about a poop topic and she replied- "frank, that is a VERY personal thing"! Then she stomped out of the room.____
A fart is the lonely cry of an imprisoned turd.

Frank, your nurse friend graduated from the School of Too Much Information. There are hordes of alums from that particular alma mater.

Pulling My Pants Down For Peace, Plop and Posterity!

I drop mine all the way to the ankles. It just seems a little less restrictive that way. Around the knees or above seems pretty tight.

How come everyone is letting the cats come into the bathroom while they go? Don't you have bathroom doors?

So there's something to wipe with, of course.

Know why my name is titanicshit. If you've ever had one, you know what i'm talking about. They are so long they break in half in the toilet. HAHA me and my brother always converse about our shitting habits and come up with stupid names for those oh so weird craps

It's great to see I'm not the only one who enjoys talking about poop in any sort of way (guidelines, polls, advise).

Thanks Doniker, and the last two are crackin' me up!

What's so funny 'bout poop, love, and understanding?

Does anyone else like to call pooping "unclenching a filth rocket"?

Just wonderin'

I drop mine around my ankles. If I try to keep them up any higher, my legs are too close together to reach between my legs to wipe properly.

I lose the pants and shirt. Apparently I'm weird.

I went with below my knees but not around my ankles. I like some coverage. Plus I don't like showing of my kankles.

I'm here to prove that girls poop.

Your not weird at all. I do the same thing. Gives me complete freedom to dump-out =)

I originally voted for taking 'em off, but that doesn't apply to certain pairs & doesn't necessarily include the underwear. For a while I was dropping them all the way because of a new toilet seat my brother had installed in the bathroom we were both using then; it seemed just a little too small to coexist with any pants. Other than as noted above, I don't have an official policy, & for some dumb reason it seems maybe I should. Fortunately it doesn't affect anyone else...

George Bernard Shaw: “Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.”

I don't remove my pants. In other words, I just poop in my pants and worry about it later.

Most of the time, I keep my pants above my knees. Because when I have to shit that is as far as I am able to get them in order to not shit myself. Sometimes though, once I am seated, I will move them down to my ankles, ( if I am at home in my own bathroom). Additionally, I dont like my pants to touch the floor, especially at work or other public restroom. At home, I will sometimes remove my shirt.

When I get through the door from work, off come the clothes and I usually take a dump. Then I put on jammies, and if I poop again ( usually do) to the knees so I too can hold my magazine or book. I am reading Anthony Bourdain, The Nasty Bits. My hub thinks it's weird I can pooop and read about food.

Nutty, Anthony has one of my favorite shows. That dude ain't afraid to eat anything. Imagine his poop stories.

I take my pants off on the way to the bathroom, and drop them off in the laundry room. If I'm heading to the toilet, it's already too late for the pants.

this thing about cats is funny, I have 4 cats, and drop pants just below knee level. the cats compete to sit in my pants while I poop-- Its crazy--why? I dunno

_______
like a constipated accountant- I worked it out with a pencil.

They are trying to tell you (in their own feline way) that they want to be like Bilge's cats.

I go mid-shin with my boxers and ankles with my jeans. And yes I too have a cat who sits in my pants while I go. Not in the boxers, that's a little gross but I do let her be close to her daddy to keep her off my lap. She also drinks from the sink and will stand on the sink and claw my shoulder until I turn the water on for her.....evil beast.....messing with my poop-time!

Do you remove the cat when you pull your pants up? Just curious, I think it would save me time if I just left the little fucking furball in there...oh, wait, no...that would be bad for my trouser snake...never mind.

Without pants, in the shower, and warm running water down my back while I squeeze out the remainder of what started in my boxers. Very smelly and messy but much more liberal than the restricted effect being the toilet bowl's echoe.

Wherever I am, unless the room is very cold, I drop pants and undies to my ankles. If the light is good, I can look between my legs, see in the water the silhouette of my bottom, and watch my poop come out. At home I usually do the same, but sometimes take all my clothes off to dump.

MSG, I remember as a child, (the lighting was different) looking down to watch the log clear the crevice, in the watery reflection. Sadly, because of a lighting issue in the house I now have, those days of quantifying the log by reflection are long gone. However, I am considering, after your post, consulting a lighting specialist, to see if wee can replicate those halcyon days of childhood poop.

Its nice to see whats coming!

Did I just fart?.... hope so!

I prefer to just lower by trousers and boxers to just above my knees. For years I dropped both to my ankles but feel pooping at school etc is safer with them kept at arms reach to pull them up quickly and prevent my mates seeing my undies in the stall nextdoor

hah. For the past 3 months I haven't been wearing any pants, just silk shorts(holidays) and sometimes nothing at all. Depending on how shitty a bathroom is I'll have my pants down to ankles(clean) and to my knees(shitty).

Lately, I've had a lot of back problems, so to minimize the bending, I've started just lowering my underwear and pants to where they just barely clear my ass. Only problem is, I still have to push them down to my knees so I can reach between my legs to wipe. (Wish I could learn to wipe from behind, but I can't figure it out.)

So why bother wiping, turdfan? You don't live with anyone, do you?

I guess that begs the question, "if an ass is unwiped and you live alone, is it still dirty?"

By the way, I figured that turdfan lived alone because living with someone usually requires bending. In my experience, anyway. But to answer your astute question, Sir Prarie-dog Bacon, I think if you live alone, your ass is whatever you want it to be.

anonymous Bull, could you please elaborate on why you feel safer pulling your pants down to your ankles in a clean bathroom? are your knees and shins easily susceptible to contracting diseases?

turdfan, here's how you wipe from behind (er, how i wipe from behind):
1. lean forward
2. lift one side (the same side as the hand you wipe with) of your butt off the toilet
3. reach under with your TP-wielding hand
4. wipe (always front to back!)

easy peasy.
_______
i love poop.

At least pull them down far enough where they clear the asshole.

Wonder, the front to back procedure is called for with females, as you have nothing to stop the swipe. We males have a sort of door stop that prevents us from going too far when wiping back to front.

Postman, that was too funny.

that's true, prarie. and i did consider that and almost omitted that part. but then i figured there could be a female who doesn't know how to wipe properly who may come across that post.

plus, well, you just never know with some people.

The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

For those with cats: Tried SHUTTING THE DOOR?

I choose take them off. Because I like to put my feet up on the toilet seat. and put my chin on my knees its a good release!

I guess it really depends on what I'm doing and my mood at the moment.If the turds a fighter then to the ankles or off all together. But usually above the knees mostly because I have 4 kids and a husband that feel the only time they need to talk to me is when I'm taking a shit.

Earth, insane asylum for the universe.

Mrs. Crapper, I too once suffered from the affliction of children at the door when I was taking care of business in the bathroom. Sometimes those little fuckers would actually try the door if their pleas for more cookies went unanswered. My dulcet tones of "Sweetness, Mommy's using the bathroom right now. Please wait a minute until I'm through." didn't deter them from bothering me.

Then I threatened to lock them in there with me to inhale the stench while they watched me crank out a log if they didn't get the hell away from the door.

That was about 8 years ago. I have pooped in peace ever since.

Dulcet tones don't always work. Sometimes you have to get mean, like yelling at the top of your voice, "Get the fuck out of here, I'm taking a shit".

That'll always work.

I am a 19 year old UK collage student and personally I usually prefer to drop my trackies/jeans to my ankles and my boxers to my ankles as well however if I'm pooping in public I tend to either keep my jeans and boxers above my knees or more often than not drop my jeans to my ankles and just lower my boxers just far enough to do my business. If I am taking a dump at collage I definately only lower boxers slightly as my mates often look over or under the cubicle and I dont want others seeing my underwear if possible

Good luck in your "collage" studies...um...yeah.

Poopsy nd Postman. I have tried being sweet and nice about it and I have also tried being a total foaming at the mouth bitch about it. Either way I get the same response from the kids or the mister. A big goofy smile and a laugh and then an attempt to humiliate me by announcing that I'm pooping so everyone else will come to the door to bother me. One of these days when they least expect it I'll get my revenge!

Earth, insane asylum for the universe.

If I'm at home or at a friends house I go all the way down to the ankles otherwise I don't go further than my knees so if anyone looks over or under they can't see my dick but just my ass cheeks

What in the world are you doing in there so that people looking over or under can see your ass cheeks?!

The only time I keep my pants close to knee level is when I'm in a stall with a dirty--or, worse, wet--floor. If the floor is dry and even reasonably clean, it's still down to the ankles with my pants & undies; so much freer movement, in every way.

At home=always pants off. Remote location=to the top of my 14" boots (just below knee).

No, Poothagoras, I don't mind you asking.
Most of the regulars here already know that I have had surgery to remove bowel cancer, and as a result, I am now an ostomate, i.e. I wear a colostomy bag. So my way of taking a crap is to swap out the used bag for a fresh one, and this is best achieved standing up.

BM, I greatly admire the courage and humor you express despite your condition. All the best to you mate. BTW, you might be one of the few men who could wake up, roll over and say to your wife, "honey, I just shit in bed" and not have her be too alarmed.

Chief, when you "toss them on the bed" am I safe to assume your lovely wife isn't in it at the time?

Thanks, BM, I understand your comment now.

I also realized when I was reading your reply that I read and even commented on your Nowhere To Dump report.

You have all my sympathy over your bowel cancer. I am actually involved in cancer research, which I decided to do in memory over my godfather. Another friend decided to follow the same profession in memory of his own mother.

I always pull them down to my ankles, whether at home or on a public loo, because I want freedom of movement. (A video of me - hopefully never taken of me) would show that I move my legs about quite a lot). Regarding anyone seeing my underwear - I rarely soil it or wet it. I like coloured, patterned underwear anyway. My mum always prefers patterned carpets which don't show up marks - though having said that, she is very meticulous in keeping them clean. This is a good argument against plain underwear.

They should make all underwear brown..... or red I'm not sure yet. Damn pad malfunctions ruin just as much underwear as sharts, not wiping properly, and overzealous farts.

Well, now I have to keep my pants up at my knees whether I at home or away. Little Shitake is now 2 years old, and whenever I go in to poop or even pee, she feels that she needs to be there to watch me. I just got out of the bathroom, having a rather large poop, and she was standing there watching me the whole time. I actually had to coax her out of the bathroom, so I can wipe. It is ok though, Mrs. Shitake and I feel that Little Shitake is getting ready for potty training. Hopefully, her potty training will make her to be shameless like her daddy.

You are so wise MMC. Brown it is and should be. Maybe for the gals, brown in back and red in front. I think we need to get a patent on this before Victorias Secret gloms in on the idea.

I tried brown and white striped boxers but had trouble keeping the skid marks on the brown, now I have brown and brown boxers.
