Guest EXPAT Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 According to a new study 75% of people use their smartphone while sitting on the toilet. You know they say reading or doing anything other than what you are supposed to do on the toilet is not healthy and may cause hemorrhoids etc. So I thought I'd do a quick poll. Here is the article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/01/toilet-texting-study_n_1245290.html?ref=technology&ncid=edlinkusaolp00000009 Quote
Members JKane Posted February 1, 2012 Members Posted February 1, 2012 I only use it very rarely. Usually read magazines, but sitting too long is bad for you! (Many believe excessive sitting on toilet causes hemorrhoids.) Quote
Members MsGuy Posted February 1, 2012 Members Posted February 1, 2012 Many believe excessive sitting on toilet causes hemorrhoids. Many also believe excessive wanking causes blindness. To the extent that there's a correlation between time on toilet and hemorroids, JK, I would look for hidden variables linked to both. Quote
Members TampaYankee Posted February 2, 2012 Members Posted February 2, 2012 I don't even have one... smart phone that is. Quote

My guess is it's actually time spent straining... but sitting idly, derping around on my phone or reading 'till my legs fall asleep can't be good... Quote
Members MsGuy Posted February 2, 2012 Members Posted February 2, 2012 My guess is it's actually time spent straining... Definitely a prime candidate variable for further research. but sitting idly, derping around on my phone or reading 'till my legs fall asleep can't be good... Yep, causes blood clots & varicose veins (according to respected authorities ) Quote
