What a great posting. WellandGoodNYC is doing a fantastic job of hitting some very important issues. Crapping is certainly one of them. But I’d like to comment on one issue that Brigit Krome brought up. It may be that women have an Eriksonian complex. But it is also true that women have a uterus which causes the colon to get contorted in ways that men’s colons do not. It is likely that these contortions also contribute to bowel irregularity.

I love this this piece on Poo! Very cute, informative and addresses a topic that people live with, treat, wonder about–but rarely talk about neutrally. That is unless you have a baby–then couples and caregivers talk about it all the time.
Great going!
