Or if you really, really think about it we don't need anything more then a hole in the ground, but, I think everyone but Albert would like as much comfort as possible.

well the Japanese toilets are fairly minimal. I believe it involves more squatting than sitting. I've also heard they are more efficient at evacuating certain areas. Not sure if that is true though.

But a hole in the ground would stink to high hell. You need water- and the water trap.

our house has 3 bathrooms. One bathroom is upstairs in my parents' bedroom. It has a bathtub and a separate shower stall, a toilet, and one sink. Then the 'kids' (me and my siblings) have a bathroom (also upstairs) with a full shower/bath, two sinks and a toilet. The last is on the first floor, and is just a toilet and sink (some refer to this as a 'powder room'.

Could we get by with one bathroom? Sure. Absolutely, in fact. But if you have the money to afford the convenience of more than one, and are willing to spend it on that convenience, you do. It's that simple.

Besides, there have been many times when more than one person needed to shower or use the facilities at once...so I'm happy for the fact that we have more than one

Speer, if you think about it, we don't need toilet paper either. Why don't you install a bday with your shower/sink combo? Or how about an special attachment to your sink?

The fact is, I grew up in a house with one bathroom, and it was a relatively upper-middle class area -- of course, I grew up in the seventies and early eighties, and the house in question was built in the 1880s.

That just goes to show that, until recently, lots of people had just the one bathroom. Of course, most famalies were larger, and homes smaller, so space was at a premium.

Nowadays, the opposite is true, which opens up room for larger and/or multiple baths.

In the poorer or more traditional parts of the Arab/Muslim world people just use their hands.

That is in fact true. Squatting is more hygenic.

I spent a lot of time with some sri lankans in Columbo who just used water instead of toilet paper. A very odd experience, they kept a 2 liter bottle of water by the toilet. Luckily they bought a roll just for me Also they had a shower, but no shower curtain in the bathroom, so when it was going, everything in the room was soaked.

I can just imagine the political rants which would happen in that household.

Why would a house need more than one bathroom? Picture this:

Dad, standing in hallway wearing coat and hat: "Hey, come on everybody, let's go, we're going to be late for the movie."

Mom: "Harold, did you go to the bathroom like I told you to?"

Harold: "Oh Mom. Noooo-ah. Do I have to."

Mom: "Yes you do. Now hop to it young man, or we'll all miss the movie."

[Harold shuffles off to downstaris bathroom sullenly.]

Mom: "How about you Jean?"

Jean: "But Mooo-omm, Harold is hogging the bathroom."

Mom: "Well use the upstairs bathroom."

Jean: "It's not fair! [Stomp] It's not fair! [Stomp. Stomp.] I always have to go upstairs to use the bathroom."

Dad: "Just go, will you? By now we'll be lucky to make it anyway."

Jean: "OK! " [Stomp, Stomp, Stomp.....]

Mom: "Honey, will you hold my purse? I have to go to the bathroom."

Dad: "Sure." [Quietly, to self] "Looks like we won't be making it to Cat in the Hat . Hmmmm....We'll have plenty of time to catch Bad Sants . " [Grins] "When you're done I have o go too."

Are you putting us on, AS? I mean, you ask silly questions all the time, but this is just...well, as Ari put it, retarded. The reasons for wanting more than one bathroom in a house will be painfully obvious to you the next time you have to pee really, really badly but someone's taking their sweet time in the shower.

I think a metrosexual who lives by himself needs four bathrooms . . . .


one to "go" to the bathroom,

another to shave,

the third bathroom for skin care applications,

the fourth one for grooming.
