Does it take your DH an hour to crap?

Do all men have incredibly slow bowels? I know it's a cliche, but my husband disappears into the bathroom for a good 45 minutes. I do not get it. He'd never make it as a SAHD- there is absolutely no time to lounge in the bathroom for a mega-long poop session.

anything under an hour would be a record. I don't get it. I'm on and off, 2minutes.

Me too. 1. I don't have any great desire to linger in the bathroom and 2. it just doesn't take long to go.

No, but my dad did.  He doesn't now that we are grown... uhm.

Omg this so my house! DH takes forever, I confess to watching the clock on him before. I just don't get it. It doesn't take me even half that long to go, and besides, if I'm on the toilet for more than 10 minutes, my butt goes numb!

Yes. I don't get it. It takes me 2 minutes max. DH once said something about how he doesn't push. He just sits and waits for it to come out... Seriously, 2 pushes, done, and get back to helping out.

YES! There have been times I've forgotten he was in there and I thought he left to run errands or something.

And sometimes DD will knock on the door and ask him if he fell in. She and I both die laughing when she does it.

This actually made me laugh out loud.

He doesn't take quite that long, but he does bring a book with him.  I don't get it.  How is there time for reading books?  I mean, is he sitting there with poop in the toilet  and a dirty butt while he reads?  If so, gross.  Is he waiting until after he's all finished?  Why not just come on out and read a book with his pants on?

I'm the one who takes forever. Not because it actually TAKES me that long, but being in a locked bathroom holds great appeal for me. It was the same reason I spent an hour in the bathroom "getting ready" when I was growing up in a family of 5 kids. I was ALONE! LOL!

KrisBriMcBunny

no he doesnt take that long...maybe 15 minutes at the most.  Britt however is what we call around here.... a power pooper.  I swear she's in and out in 30-45 seconds lol.

I thought maybe it was just my husband. That man can't possibly get enough fiber in his diet. Seriously he hardly eats fruit or vegetables. No wonder it takes him forever.

My sister and I have had this discussion. I don't understand it but we definitely agree that their bm is definitely slower but seemed to have slowed down considerably since having children.

YES!  This is exactly what my DH says too!!  What's up with that?  So annoying! 

knmommy

omg, I thought I was the only one.  If we have something to do or someplace to go, I tell him "you better go take your hour dump now"  It drives me insane!

Chrisy-Wyobride

Yes & I swear if they are not reading in there they must be jerking off or something, they have to be...LOL!

GettinNervous

I have a theory that men enjoy the feeling of it coming out, but they don't like to admit it. They are weird about the butt thing, ya know? So they savor it. You read it here first.

winery

Yes.

I've smartened up and when he's home on the weekend, I go into the bathroom for a long time too.

I don't sit on the pot with my pants down though.  I just sit there, and read my magazines.  No one bothers me.

Neat trick.

There is some song that DH was singing one time and a line was "Do you beat your meat on the toilet seat".

Nice.
