my gf is from brazil and sometimes we share a bathroom. i saw a pile of used toilet paper in an open bin next to the toilet, and thought oh it must be because it's easier to chuck there if she had a runny nose/on her period, bit weird but whatever. took me a few weeks then i worked up the courage to ask
>um, are you wiping your ass and chucking it in that pile next to the toilet
>omg yes anon i forgot to mention that's how we do it in brazil
WTF!? i like to think of myself as open to new cultures and stuff but that's just disgusting. so like when you use a toilet someone else has used, there's a pile of their shit, piss and used paper next to you. isn't that somewhat of a health hazard, and at best just fucking stinks? then, when full, some poor fucker has to pick it up like a large bag of dog shit and chuck it
at least in india the pajeets shit outside and leave it outside, unlike in sao poolo. what are sighsee's thoughts on the practice? what other countries generally do this?
I've heard that's also a thing in Bulgaria for some reason.
Bad plumbing
>babbys first visit to the second/third world
On a more serious note: Is there a site that lists if toilet paper is flushable in a given country?
found this
t. OP
How did Tanzania get this power?
German colony
white safari tourism prolly
Date turd worlder, find turds in trash lol
Shit had no idea its still 1700s in most of the world
>Spain
>France
>Italy
I've been to all three and never heard of people throwing toilet paper into the trash.
I'm from Spain and I've never heard of anyone throwing paper stained with fucking shit in the fucking bin,
Never heard of this anywhere in Europe, let alone fucking France or Italy of all places in the world
Inaccurate map. Saudi Arabia is a flush it country.
t. Lived there for 10 years, more than 20 years ago
>Saudi Arabia is a flush it country
Saudi Arabia like all Arab countries wipes with their left hand. You should know that if you lived there for ten years.
Another day, another moron moving the goalposts. Ignore this inaccurate gay retard.
They don't even wipe there, they use water which is far better and cleaner
In Singapore just flush it. In Malaysia just flush it in big cities.
Toilet paper is flushable in Vietnam and Thailand, at least in every place I've stayed at
i literally flush toilet paper everywhere I go with no problems lol
Brazillian here. Tried to do the flushed paper-in-the-toilet method. It fucked the toilet and it wouldn't flush. My family got pissed, they have been shitting amd dropping their period on the toilet lid as well.
Tanzania punching way above its weight here.
All of the red didn't have Roman science.
Why is the Vatican more advance than the entirety of Italy?
It's a country with an area of less than half a square kilometer (or less than 1/5 of a square mile).
Less land = less buildings = less work to do
Not to mention they get plenty of money from tourism & donations, so bing bang boom, updated plumbing in no time.
Italy is a much bigger country, with multiple subdivisions with their own lower levels of government. Everyone has a different way of doing things.
You can flush anywhere in Rome. Its probably orange because of some mountain villages. Then again, I've never heard anyone in Italy tell me to throw toilet paper in the trash, so the map could just be complete bullshit.
At my workplace, we did business with Colombians a lot, so people from both companies would go back and forth between each country.
When they came to visit our workplace, they deposited their shit-tickets into the bin next to the toilet.
When my boss went to their base of operations, he flushed the paper down the toilet and caused the toilet to overflow.
These reasons are cope. I am South American myself, I always throw shitty paper in the toilet and I've never clogged a toilet. How the fuck is toilet paper the culprit when the pipes are able to handle your fat ass sticky turds?
- Why the fuck do you need to contemplate your turd while it's in the bowl? Flush immediately you fucking pig
- You don't need more than three pieces of paper per wipe unless you're retarded and have no fine motor control in your hands
- If the bowl is started to look crowded, why the fuck do you keep putting more things in it? The pipe is visibly narrower than the bowl, flush as soon as it looks like the pipe opening won't take it.
- Stop eating so much fat. Blaming toilet paper for an overflow when your turd sticks to the bowl is lardass cope.
I flush literally everywhere I go and I've never had any problems. Literally skill issue + turdworlder cope
>I am South American myself
City?
Manizales, Colombia. Not exactly a big city lmao
It also depends on the building. If it's a newer building then it's less likely to have that restriction.
Anon my apartment building was built in the late 80s and it can handle toilet paper just fine. Again, why would toilet paper be harder to flush than a literal ball of shit? It's thinner and it slowly dissolves in water.
The shit bin is a horrible practice for people with no common sense
>You don't need more than three pieces of paper per wipe
I do, I eat chili once a week and my buttcrack is a nukezone
Why did you quote me? I'm
.
I understand that English is your second language, but I'll have you know that I did not make any excuses for Colombia's plumbing system. It was objectively true that Colombian representatives discarded their used toilet paper in our bins. That's on them, not me. Perhaps you should inform your countrymen that it's okay to flush toilet paper anywhere in the world. Also tell them to not bring their disgusting habits into my country.
>These reasons are cope. I am South American myself, I always throw shitty paper in the toilet and I've never clogged a toilet. How the fuck is toilet paper the
shit hole countries don't have water pressure. It takes a water tower or pumps to create water pressure dumbass.
Cant tell if this is a troll or a literal white suburban Karen moment.
This is common in Peru and most likely in Brazil too; the plumbing in these countries are ancient and terrible. Any blockage results the whole building's being not working and is expensive to fix, money these people dont have. To circumvent that; all used toilet paper is thrown in a bin next to the toilet to prevent any potential blockage. This is taught and become second nature.
Cant imagine why your girlfriend failed to explain this to you, unless you're an attention seeking fag.
Can any plumber explain the mechanism to how some pipes can handle toilet paper and others cant?
They use under sized pipes and put in retarded 90 degree elbows everywhere. You can actually get away with flushing shit paper if you use one (1) sheet and let it sit in the bowl to disintegrate.
>use one (1) sheet and
This. If you use one square you will be fine. And always flush your shit separately.
Brazil uses a separate water drain and sewer system. It makes it easier and cheaper to make a citywide sewer system. Most importantly, it works well with unpaved roads, which are probably still a good chunk of the roads.
The sewer systems, being designed exclusively for fluids and fecal matter, have smaller pipes all around - both inside houses and on the street. Waste treatment plants also can't process lignine - which is present in toilet paper - very well. I've seen a sewer specialist once say that it's not really that great of a problem, but since it's already a cultural fixture, they'll rather keep it that way.
Utilities companies advise people not to flush their toilet paper.
If you live in an apartment tower like me, you can get away with flushing your toilet paper. If you live at ground level, there may be clogging.
You'll even find this in Europe, anon. You don't chuck the paper out in the open though, there's trash cans for that. It's not ideal, but there's houses with bad plumbing that cannot handle a lot of toilet paper.
First time leaving the house? They do this everywhere including south korea and greece. Retard
I flush it
t. rgeek
That'll teach you not bringing your portable bidet when you travel.
>Whenever I travel to one of those brown countries I just flush it like a normal person kek
Never had a problem
Same. I don't want my bathroom to smell like shit 24/7
Why are you using toilets that other people use? Get your own damn bathroom.
Yes, it is standard in Latino America to pile your stinky asswipes in the garbage next to the toilet. This is why you keep the bathroom door closed and the bathroom window open.
It is also standard to empty the bathroom garbage daily, usually after taking your morning dump.
LOL at thinking it is better to have entire pajeet shits festering in the open air than having an asswipe with a little smear of shit sitting in a garbage can next to the toilet.
The worst bathroom smells come from showers that do not have a drain flap, not from asswipes in the garbage.
captcha: xp00p
Having paper contaminated with feces in the bathroom is disgusting and extremely unsanitary, why are you too lazy to make decent pipes like civilized people, this is the fucking 21st century ffs. You are a dead weight for human progress.
We use bidets here my moron. Relax.
Wtf are you serious?
Brazil might be poorer but they're not that poor they can't do some civil engineering. If Shitholefucktown, Mississippi can fix a toilet than Brazil can fix a toilet. The truth is there's no excuse for it in year 2023 other than them being lazy South American shitskins.
I remember my first trip abroad!
No seriously, grow up Peter Pan gay
The bigger mystery is why there are no toilet seats in Colombia?
Same reason why hotels in certain regions have no showerheads.
Ladron.
Maybe it's not a cultural thing.
I live in an apartment with bad plumbing so it's pretty ill advised to flush toilet paper.
I am Brazilian and I only put the last toilet paper on the bin after my ass is fully clean. This issue comes from the fact that most of our pipes can't get other things than piss and poo without getting clogged.
BUT, I also saw this in several other places, like Spain.
moron Mentality
Best post
This is more common than you think and the reason is their plumbing weren't designed for toilet paper.
Even in Shanghai, some places still have this practice. That was 10 years ago, however, maybe they've upgraded.
Is pouring used anti-freeze down your toilet good for it?
No, but you're not gonna care and you'll do it anyway.
actually some municipal waste places encourage it.
>unlike in sao poolo
There's your problem. If you go to less shitty areas of Brazil everyone has a bidet to blast your ass with water.
Honestly, after coming back to europe my ass doesn't feel as clean from just toilet paper as it did when I powerwashed it with water.
Let's be honest, if you got shit on your hand, would you consider rubbing it with some dry paper "clean enough"?
>Let's be honest, if you got shit on your hand, would you consider rubbing it with some dry paper "clean enough"?
I have been using water to clean my ass for a few years now, but come on, you can't compare the cleanliness of your hand to the cleanliness of your ass. You use your hand to touch stuff, to shake other people's hands, to rub your face... your hand is visible and your ass is hidden away. Your asshole has zero contact with anything else besides your buttcheecks and your underwear.
>Your asshole has zero contact with anything else besides your buttcheecks and your underwear.
So, about that...
I've gotten into the habit of using regular toilet paper to get rid of most of the residual shit (just as intended), but then I would finish it off with a flushable wet wipe. In terms of cleanliness, it is at least a step above plain toilet paper alone.
>inb4 not actually flushable
Not my problem.
To me, it's not so much the binning that bothers me, but that even their luxury hotels are like this. I don't mind if an old house or a hole-in-the-wall restaurant has poor plumbing, but luxury hotels really do need to step it up. If replacing the pipes is too costly, then at least have macerating toilets (toilets with blades inside to break down solids).
french people always do this in the hostel
one time they were chucking used paper into an open bin in the fucking dorm
Wouldn't expect anything more from Fr*nch "people"
That can't be true, I've lived in France most of my life and have never heard of binning shit stained toilet paper in a bin.
I lived in 4 different countries in Europe and have never heard it seen that.
>he doesn't wipe his ass with his hand
Brazilians are incredible fucking idiots who even to this day do not fully realize, or can even fathom the unique geological paradise their Portuguese ancestors managed to discover and inherit.
Brazil could theoretically survive the cataclysms that will happen on Earth, and the nuclear wars that followed, becoming the last considerably populated nation left if not for the likely possibility that their backward low I.Q. people will spiral into chaos because they refuse to evolve into more enlightened civility.
When you look at history and you see what Anglo-Saxon empires managed to do with less, and at its poorest it's a point of record noone can argue, compared to those Latin nations who used to be ruled by Iberian kingdoms, of who 80% of them are fucking useless people still stuck in the same low standard of living they've had since the 19th century.
Including one the size of Brazil. I hope a plague comes out from their shitty favelas and kills them all.

After all, modern man must be warned about such matters.
Wait, you fuckers FLUSH toilet paper?
What are you supposed to do, keep it?
Put it in a bin, throw the bag away every few days.
Like a civilized person.
I'd rather take the even more civil approach and get rid of it immediately. A true gentleman leaves no filth behind.
First you don't take showers every single day, now you just throw paper into the toilet.
Euros are weird, man.
>First you don't take showers every single day
Not true, especially in a sighsee context. I paid for the hotel, I'm gonna wash myself as many times as I want.
>tfw I showered six times in one day
I lived in Germany, Estonia and Russia. All 3 had zero problems flushing toilet paper. In fact, Germany had the best plumbing I have seen outside the US. I am from Texas and if you don't shower everyday, you will reek because of the humidity and insane heat.
What is your job that allows you to so thoroughly analyse the plumbing of countries you have briefly lived in?
>civilized person
Cállate, pedazo de macaco comemierda. Tirar papel lleno de mierda a una cesta para que tu casa huela a mierda de macaco no es ni de cerca lo que una persona civilizada haría. O es que también tiras tu mierda a una bolsa y después la tiras a la basura?
Das asco
Não falo macaco
Then I'll give you a brief translation:
putting shitty paper in a bin to stink up your house is not "civilized". Might as well put your shit in a bag and not use a toilet. You're disgusting.
t. Colombiano
I don't want to hear any arguments about this. You fucking put it in the toilet because no one wants to smell the wafting of shit from a waste basket 30 yards over before they even get to the restroom to take a piss. This is not rocket science. Just because your country is used to stinking like a monkey zoo doesn't mean the rest of us want to.
LMAO even Latin airlines seem to tell you to put shit paper in the bin
Bros is this some kind of joke or psyop? I was planning on going to Brazil or somewhere in Latam but I am now totally rethinking it.
I am extremely clean and I use several wet wipes and shower after almost every dump I take.
If that bothers you then you're not going to like latam. It's not India tier but expect a 50% chance of a bathroom being totally disgusting unless it's in a hotel or shopping mall, a general dirty feel to most cities, noticeable smells of air and water pollution, stray animals and trash around and questionable food handing and hygiene being kind of the norm. These all tend to get worse the more indigenous a place is.
If you want babys first latam take panama, especially panama city is easy to navigate and generally safe. Certain areas you should stay out of but its easy to list them. Also good and easy go to nice beaches.
Yeah. I was thinking of going to Sao Paulo in Brazil though. What kind of stuff can I flush down a toilet there?
Honestly, I don't mind pissing in weird bathrooms, just shitting. I usually poop right before bed or when I wake up. Then I can go out and enjoy the rest of the day.
I'll keep Panama in mind. You think it would be better than Sao Paulo?
Panama's boring, go to Sao Paolo.
>What kind of stuff can I flush down a toilet there?
If you are staying at a fancy international hotel in any of these places you can flush toilet paper.
But you ought to give up the wet wipe habit. What's the point if you're showering anyway? Or go to Argentina and have fun with their bidets. Everybody and every hotel in Argentina has bidets.
>What's the point if you're showering anyway?
I guess I don't want as little as shit as possible running down my legs when i shower. But I guess I could toilet paper it, then just shower and it wouldn't make much of a difference.
The bidet thing kind of freaks me out a little bit. Couldn't it not be sanitary cause like, someone else just sat their shitty ass in there? Never used one before though. Couldn't small pieces of shit get on the nozzle and it sprays up my asshole (for the ones built in to the toilet)?
Yeah latam is like this, I dont know why. Even people whos plumbing is okay with paper put it in a fucking trashbag because theyre used to it, nothing else. Its as disgusting as you can imagine.
>i saw a pile of used toilet paper in an open bin next to the toilet,
It's a common thing in places with mediocre to bad sanitary infrastructure. In Thailand they put up signs for tourists to not flush toilet paper. And put it in the bin instead. What they expect you to do though, is to wash your ass before wiping. You know, the civilized way.
>that's how we do it in brazil
It's the same in a lot of third-world countries where the plumbing can't handle toilet paper.
Taiwan does the same thing.
Just explain to her that in whatever your country is, the plumbing and the sewage treatment plants are designed to handle it, and she can and should throw the paper into the toilet to flush it away.
I'm brazilian and I flush the toilet paper everywhere I go, and so does my family. Normalfag skill issue
