Quoting ninja:

No, it is not hamsi which is kind of small fish.

And to make it easier for you.....both together! lol

Quoting CANLI:

Are they commonly in use there in public places and in homes too ?!
Or you just can find them in some places ?!
We used to have ones like those,but years ago



Unfortunately they are commonly in use in public places. Busstations and even some restaurants have these toilets. I always make sure I use the restroom for invalid people, because I really cant go on those ones, I have to take off my shoes and trousers entirely and most of these toilets are to disgusting to be on barefeat and have no place to hang up your clothing

As for homes: the newly build all have 'Normal' toilets, but often still have one of these as a second toilet.

You are right when it comes to hygene I think, but I solve that by carrying a pack of bacteria killing ıslak mendil in my pocket when Im on the road.

How can you take off your trousers without taking off your shoes, canım?

I havent managed to gain enough concidence and try it with trousers. Still think Im very much in a riskzone of wetting myself the wrong way!!

The story works both ways though! A woman who has used such an alaturka toilet all her life, has got loads of trouble to go on a normal one! The muscles in her body are not used to make use of the toilet in such a position
