#32> I don't drink Drano or lick movie theater floors either. No fun me.


#37 of 113 by rlejeune on Thu Apr 4 21:29:47 2002:

Well, some of us are different. :D Not everyone has the same turn-ons. Drano is
kind of tasty, though . . . 


#38 of 113 by jazz on Thu Apr 4 21:42:41 2002:

        Baebes?  As in the ex-lead-singer of Miranda Sex Garden?  Okay, I
suppose it's topical.


#39 of 113 by senna on Sun Apr 7 17:54:40 2002:

Do you ever manipulate the shit into the shape of a dick before you eat it?


#40 of 113 by senna on Sun Apr 7 17:58:17 2002:

Almost forgot: Do you place the dick-shaped shits into bags for storage and/or
carrying to different locations?

Have you ever sold such a bag to a very small person named James P Howard II?


#41 of 113 by jazz on Sun Apr 7 18:43:28 2002:

        My god, I never made the connection before.


#42 of 113 by kbman on Mon Apr 8 01:23:30 2002:

gotta love that scat


#43 of 113 by jazz on Mon Apr 8 04:15:15 2002:

        You do?


#44 of 113 by brighn on Mon Apr 8 04:52:04 2002:

What do you have against Ella Fitzgerald, John?


#45 of 113 by orinoco on Mon Apr 8 13:51:28 2002:

Nothing until just now, would be my guess.


#46 of 113 by morwen on Mon Apr 8 16:32:15 2002:

Yeaugh!


#47 of 113 by rlejeune on Mon Apr 8 20:29:09 2002:

Some guys I know just collect them. Freeze the turds or stuff like that.
Sculpting them is  not as easy as it sounds. 


#48 of 113 by flem on Mon Apr 8 21:47:04 2002:

re #39:  I read a story about that once.  Where, you ask?  M-net, of course.
  :)


#49 of 113 by jazz on Mon Apr 8 21:49:39 2002:

        Was that before, or after, they mangled "eat a bag of dicks" into "eat
a bag of shitdicks"?


#50 of 113 by flem on Mon Apr 8 22:03:51 2002:

Well, I read it after, but I think the story was posted long before.  


#51 of 113 by senna on Tue Apr 9 08:02:21 2002:

#48:  Where do you think that entire line of response came from, anyway? :)


#52 of 113 by snowth on Tue Apr 9 23:22:14 2002:

And all of this vaguely reminds me of a certain movie, set in austrailia...
Abba shit, anyone?


#53 of 113 by jazz on Tue Apr 9 23:40:42 2002:

        I have no idea what that response was about, but it frightened me.


#54 of 113 by phenix on Wed Apr 10 01:00:07 2002:

precilla queen of the desert?


#55 of 113 by oval on Wed Apr 10 06:26:17 2002:

that would be my guess .. but i dont;e remember any farming in that movie.



#56 of 113 by edina on Wed Apr 10 14:34:09 2002:

Muriel's Wedding?


#57 of 113 by oval on Wed Apr 10 15:44:13 2002:

oh yea! it WAS priscilla queen of the desert! the famous persons turd!!!!

geez.

and there couldn't be more appropriate music than Abba.



#58 of 113 by jaklumen on Thu Apr 11 05:37:29 2002:

what's wrong with Abba?


#59 of 113 by void on Thu Apr 11 10:29:01 2002:

   Lots.


#60 of 113 by edina on Thu Apr 11 14:19:18 2002:

Oh Dru - admit it - everytime you hear "Dancing Queen", you feel the urge to
get on the dance floor.


#61 of 113 by void on Thu Apr 11 19:15:26 2002:

No.  No, I don't.  I clearly remember the night Abba won the 1974
Eurovision Song Contest, a sort of Europe-wide televised battle of the
bands.  They sucked then, and never stopped sucking.  They are the root
of the evil which became glam-corporate rock.  I despise the tripe they
insisted was music.  I will now truncate my rant.

<wanders off muttering incoherently>


#62 of 113 by edina on Thu Apr 11 19:21:33 2002:

<chases Dru singing, "Waterloo".


#63 of 113 by jazz on Thu Apr 11 19:22:35 2002:

        Waaaaaaaaaaaterloo ...

        OK, I have to agree, ABBA does have a high level of suck.


#64 of 113 by jazz on Thu Apr 11 19:23:04 2002:

        HAHAHAHA.

        Edina slipped in.


#65 of 113 by brighn on Thu Apr 11 20:24:46 2002:

IMHO, Abba sucks in a way that Village People don't. Village People suck in
a memorable way, a campy sort of way that you can't really tell if is
intentional or not. For all the Abba I've ever heard, the only words of
"Dancing Queen" that I know are, well, "dancing" and "queen." Their songs
slide out of memory unless they're forcibly imprinted there.
 
Everytime I try to THINK of an Abba song, I get a Village People song stuck
in my head (today, either YMCA or Go West, the latter because of Pet Shop
Boys).


#66 of 113 by jazz on Thu Apr 11 20:59:54 2002:

        The lyircs also suck in a way you can't excuse because of language
difficulties:

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

        Experience the suck that is Abba.


#67 of 113 by oval on Thu Apr 11 21:39:38 2002:

        .. and go farming.



#68 of 113 by jaklumen on Thu Apr 11 21:47:58 2002:

your opinions.

resp:61  Noted.  Tripe?  Mmmm, food of dogs and Third World laborers!  
Hmmm, that and candy, too.  Rots your ears, ya know.

resp:65 The original Village People were cooler.. well, the 
construction guy of today is lacking in beef.  Slide out of memory?  
Maybe for you since you genuinely don't like them.

resp:66 Never made a difference to me.

The Pet Shop Boys covered a Village People song-- what about Erasure 
covering Abba?  Does that automatically make Erasure suck in that 
regard?

Ah well, what about the ELO?  (Of course, I don't count the Bee Gees.. 
they've proved their talent is beyond disco.)


#69 of 113 by brighn on Fri Apr 12 03:26:23 2002:

Erasure are immune from suckery because of Vince Clarke.


#70 of 113 by jaklumen on Fri Apr 12 03:51:51 2002:

and therefore the "ABBAesque" EP, too?


#71 of 113 by edina on Fri Apr 12 13:32:46 2002:

Re 69  And Andy Bell's keen fashion sense.


#72 of 113 by brighn on Fri Apr 12 14:14:59 2002:

#70> Don't keep implying disses of Clarke, dude, I'll come kick your ass. >=}
Clarke was a major force in not one, not two, but three of the most important
New Wave bands. So maybe he made an error in judgment now and then, but his
output is immune from suckery nonetheless. (depeche Mode and Yaz also
benefited from Clarke's touch)


#73 of 113 by rlejeune on Fri Apr 12 17:05:27 2002:

What does ABBA have to do with eating shit???


#74 of 113 by jazz on Fri Apr 12 17:15:36 2002:

        You have to ask?


#75 of 113 by rlejeune on Fri Apr 12 18:31:47 2002:

Well, I haven't actually HEARD ABBA, only have heard of them. Are they that
bad? 


#76 of 113 by jazz on Fri Apr 12 19:12:20 2002:

        Depends on your feelings about eating shit, I guess.


#77 of 113 by oval on Fri Apr 12 19:44:23 2002:

                hahaha!



#78 of 113 by rlejeune on Fri Apr 12 19:56:32 2002:

It takes a while to get used to, but it can be kind of erotic. :)


#79 of 113 by brighn on Fri Apr 12 20:03:18 2002:

I'm sure some people think the same thing about Abba...


#80 of 113 by oval on Fri Apr 12 21:35:19 2002:

i have a fetish for male genitalia. it took a while to get used to, but it
can be kind of erotic. 



#81 of 113 by jazz on Fri Apr 12 22:36:49 2002:

        
        Eww, yuck, that's disgusting.


#82 of 113 by jazz on Fri Apr 12 22:37:22 2002:

        However, I'd like to encourage that fetish as much as possible.  Among
females.  Attractive females.  Yeah.


#83 of 113 by rlejeune on Sat Apr 13 12:42:28 2002:

Males genitalia, females genitalia, hermaphrodites genitalia, its all pretty
darn cool. :)


#84 of 113 by edina on Sat Apr 13 19:29:35 2002:

How does onebe plugged in enough to the internet to grex, yet escape hearing
Abba?


#85 of 113 by senna on Sun Apr 14 00:32:32 2002:

Carefully.  


#86 of 113 by jaklumen on Sun Apr 14 04:03:06 2002:

resp:73  The merest hint is not even there.. I think Clarke's 
wonderful ;P

and yes, I'm aware of his hand in Depeche Mode and Yaz(oo).  _Speak & 
Spell_ is one of my favorite DM albums (this said when I have most of 
the major LPs).  I have not heard Yaz's _You and Me Both_ or _Upstairs 
at Eric's_; I've heard the one song or so that was considered popular, 
however.


#87 of 113 by void on Tue Apr 16 21:52:54 2002:

There are few bands which surpassed Abba's level of suck.


#88 of 113 by phenix on Tue Apr 16 22:56:05 2002:

oh, there are many actually


#89 of 113 by jazz on Tue Apr 16 23:55:22 2002:

        For example, the Meatmen.  They far surpassed Abba's suckage.


#90 of 113 by phenix on Wed Apr 17 00:01:38 2002:

true ture, i was thinking n'sync.
nirvana


#91 of 113 by jazz on Wed Apr 17 00:44:25 2002:

        Nirvana had some great songs, though.


#92 of 113 by phenix on Wed Apr 17 01:40:43 2002:

really? i don't think so


#93 of 113 by morwen on Wed Apr 17 02:13:32 2002:

Depends if you liked Nirvana or not.


#94 of 113 by void on Thu Apr 18 19:42:00 2002:

Sparks sucked worse than Abba.  Way worse.


#95 of 113 by rlejeune on Thu Apr 18 20:43:44 2002:

OK, topic drift. I know you are all dying to know how it is done, so 
I'll post the tutorial here for you guys. Here goes:

Farming Tutorial
by de J 

Preface

During the Summer of 1996 the Farming Tutorial was first posted to the 
Daily Dump in ten installments called parts. It was intended as a 
hilariously funny essay about a most absurd but harmless prank; namely 
collecting turds. It was broken into parts because at the time bianca 
would gag when fed large documents, and to add to the humor by 
sometimes ending a part with a small cliffhanger. While it is now all 
one large document, most of its original structure has been retained.

Farming is the practice of recovering shit from a public toilet that 
has been disabled in some way that prevents the significant turds from 
being flushed. As you will learn; it requires time, patients, 
technique, and a strong stomach.

Part 1

In order to be a successful farmer, the first problem to solve 
is "where". Where do people usually shit when they are away from home? 
Obviously, in most cases in a public restroom. There being plenty of 
public restrooms, the question becomes "which". Here are a few 
considerations: traffic, it should be fairly busy, but not so busy that 
there is a queue; custodian, the presence of custodians or security 
personnel does not facilitate this practice; "customers", are the 
people who use the facility an agreeable ethnic mix?; gays, is the 
restroom frequently filled with gays so that people who REALLY GOTTA GO 
have to go elsewhere?; cleanliness, people will avoid a dirty restroom 
if at all possible; toilet design, the facility Coprologist described 
so picturesquely (some while back) would be quite difficult to farm; 
and lastly [for now] porta-potties, don't even think about them [unless 
you want to get sick]. You should be able to go about your farming 
business in a most inconspicuous manner.

Part 2

As an addendum to "which" restroom to farm, it seems most successful 
when there are at least two, but preferably at least three stalls. 
A "stall" is the cubicle or booth [hopefully] with a door that encloses 
one toilet. You will probably occupy one of the stalls and since many 
people don't like to shit right next to someone else, there should be a 
vacant one in the middle. If all stalls fill up and there's someone 
waiting, by all means vacate the one you're in and wash your hands for 
an hour if necessary till someone gets off the throne and vacates the 
stall. It will need your IMMEDIATE attention.

Now that you have discovered the perfect place, the question 
becomes "when". In my many years of farming I have tried and succeeded 
at all hours of the day and night. Experience has shown that in the 
morning between nine and eleven there are quite a few contributors , 
but the quality of the shit is unexceptional. Perhaps these people have 
already dumped at home and these are the aftershocks. I have harvested 
the highest quality shit from the largest number of contributors in the 
afternoon between thirteen hundred and sixteen thirty. Usually, the 
best day of the week is Saturday. If you are farming at a mall 
[shopping center] the first Saturday after the mid-month or end of the 
month payday seem best. It should be unnecessary to point out that the 
best day of the year [in the USA] is the Friday after Thanksgiving! Wow!

Part 3

Now that we know where and when, the question becomes "how". Two 
factors are involved: the type of institution where the restroom is 
located, and the toilet design. The type of institution is an important 
consideration because the thing you use for short term storage and 
portability of your harvest must be appropriate for the place you are 
farming. Just as one would not usually carry a briefcase to a beach 
bathhouse, a shopping bag in a store where all bags must be checked or 
inspected would be equally inconvenient. There are actually times when 
nothing is appropriate! For these special cases you improvise the best 
you can. One way that comes to mind is loose fitting pants and a large 
shirt with the tails out. Yeh, just like the kids dress so they can 
shoplift! Be sure to ware large briefs rather than boxers.

Since you just can't stick a fresh turd in your briefs or shopping bag, 
without both making a mess and calling attention to yourself by the 
odor; I suggest wrapping and bagging. Most turds can be gently wrapped 
[of course after any necessary reassembly] by rolling them up in a 
paper towel. I highly recommend Viva brand! That done, drop it into a 
gallon sized zip-lock baggie and seal. Many turds will fit in the same 
baggie. Then put the baggie into the briefcase, beachbag, gymbag, 
purse, camera case, shopping bag, your briefs, toolbox, or whatever you 
happen to be using. 

Part 4

Toilet design is an important consideration in selecting the best 
method for disabling. Suffice it to say there are many bad ways to 
disable a toilet, but only a couple good ways to do the job; and even 
these are not perfect. The bad ways include the risk of: overflow [too 
much water in, not enough out], suspicion and attention [why won't this 
damn thing flush, is the water turned off?], or simply being too 
difficult or time consuming to clean out and reset the trapping 
mechanism [you mean I've got to put my hand in where?]. Unless a real 
emergency arises [like you overhear a policeman talking about all the 
toilets being stopped up], do not abandon your trapping mechanism; even 
the maintenance men who will have to fix the problem aren't stupid and 
will eventually see a pattern.

What, pray tell, do we have to use? Use a plastic cup [or a pane of 
glass for the new low water consumption toilet, but more on this next 
time]. The cup must be sized properly for the toilet or you'll lose it 
along with your catch. Never use Styrofoam! Use [extra] shatterproof 
clear plastic cups of 10 to 16 oz capacity. The size needed depends on 
the toilet design. Use a sharp knife to cut a few small holes in the 
bottom of the cup; these allow water flow, but not turd flow. On the 
larger cups, consider slitting the side to allow for a variably sized 
opening of the cup and to facilitate its placement. When the toilet 
water is clean, jam the cup bottom first into the toilet's outlet hole, 
around the bend, out of sight, and wedged in place.

Part 5

The recent introduction of low water consumption toilets posed a 
particular problem. These use a jet of high pressure water in the 
bottom of the toilet bowl to rapidly start and complete the siphon and 
disposal cycle. The jet is so intense [around 60 p.s.i.], that many 
turds are liquefied in short order. Worse yet, the pressure might even 
dislodge the strategically placed cup. Now the object becomes 
protecting the turd from the high pressure jet as well as preventing it 
from being flushed. 

Did you know that a piece of glass is virtually invisible in water? 
[Yes, on close inspection you can see the edges or maybe some bubbles 
have collected on the bottom side, but most people just don't look that 
closely.] A small pane of glass properly inserted in the bottom of the 
toilet bowl will both protect big turds from the water jet and prevent 
flushing of any but the smallest pieces and mushy shit. Since I like 
the "big ones" this is just fine. Experience has shown that the pane 
should be about 2 inches wide and between 6 and 8 inches long depending 
on the toilet design. It must be installed lengthwise in such a way 
that it fits all the way to the backside of the outlet hole [you cannot 
see this part of the toilet, but rest assured it's there] and covers 
the water jet.

Part 6

A day of farming includes a decision about when and where. We've 
already talked about that as well as how to do it. Planning is 
important, you will need your bag, exactly 7 [for luck] sheets of Viva 
towels, one or two zip lock baggies, and the appropriate trapping 
devices [cups or panes of glass]. You must disable all the toilets in 
the restroom you plan to farm or Murphy's law will prevail. Yes, the 
ones you don't disable are the ones where the hot dudes will go to 
shit. And you can set your watch on that! 

OK, you're there with your junk and the traps are in place, so what's 
next? You wait like a hunter. Your prey will come, but you don't know 
when. There will be MANY false alarms. There will be many disgusting 
dumps. Yes, you WILL have to put your hand down into that mess to 
remove the trap and flush the toilet. YUK!, but it goes with the 
territory [I'm unharmed after doing it a million times]. Nevertheless 
it's essential that each toilet be promptly cleaned after being used. 
Sadly, about 90% of the shit trapped is not worth harvesting. Learn the 
kind of shit you like and be more concerned about the shit than who 
shat it. Frequently, it will be a hot dude, but middle aged men and 
youngish boys can produce a high quality product. Remember, looks are 
only skin deep, but we're dealing with something here from REAL DEEP 
inside. Think about it.

Part 7

OK, your there and someone comes in and "shits down beside you". There 
are a number of clues that you can use to predict the kind of deposit 
being made. A quick visit and little or no wiping means they just took 
a piss. Yes, many men do sit down to piss. You can expect the best 
contribution if the visit lasts from three to five minutes; they don't 
use a whole roll of TP to wipe their ass, and you don't hear any sounds 
during the dumping process with the exception of pissing. OTOH, if you 
hear a lot of farting and splashing, or heaven forbid, a sound 
like "main engine ignition of the space shuttle"; you can bank on the 
fact that it ain't going to be pretty. Occasionally, however, some 
splashing does occur with a quality product but not very often; this is 
indicative of a "big one" breaking up as it emerges. The "big ones" 
slip out quietly and are already partially in the water while still 
emerging from the asshole; therefore no splash will be heard.

Wow! The deposit has been made, the donor departed, and you've rushed 
into the stall and see the perfect turd! Yeh, that sounds neat, but 
more likely than not even the real keepers are buried under a mass of 
TP, so you will have to do some digging to make the discovery. Well, 
you did and you did. What next? 

Part 8

There it is, the turd of your dreams, or more likely, at least 
acceptable according to your standards. You fetch a sheet of Viva from 
your bag, then begin the extraction process. Attempt to keep an intact 
turd intact, so proceed with the extraction very carefully. As soon as 
it is removed, in whole or part, give it the sniff test. As previously 
described, the taste of shit is closely related to it's smell [and as 
you will learn its appearance]. If it fails your test, you best flush 
it. If it passes your test, carefully reassemble [if necessary], gently 
wrap in the Viva towel and store in the zip lock baggie in your bag. 
Then, clean the toilet and reset the trap.

How long does this go on? As long as there is traffic and you want to 
continue. If it's in the afternoon much past sixteen thirty and there's 
not much traffic, you're probably wasting your time. After you call it 
a day, remove all your traps and walk out of the place just like you 
owned it. Unless you were stupid enough to get shit smeared all over 
yourself or your bag, nobody will have a clue about what you're 
carrying; so don't get paranoid. 

Well, it sounds like a plan. What could possibly go wrong? ... Just 
about everything!

Parts 9 & 10

The "top ten" problems encountered while farming. I decided to conclude 
this series at part "ten" in honor of the "perfect 10" I harvested 
yesterday [which is now sometime last summer] that is now part of me.

10. You farmed all day and didn't get a damn thing. [Shit happens, just 
not today].

9. The hottest dude you've ever seen was just leaving as you arrived 
and before you had set any traps. [very frustrating].

8. The stud of your dreams leaves a very unremarkable deposit. [You 
better flush it because it may indicate an illness or GI problem and 
may make you sick [voice of experience here!]].

7. It's a beauty, but you didn't see who left it. [You keep it and, 
naturally, assume it was a hot jock; this is actually not an assumption 
without merit! You may find the uncertainty actually enhances the 
experience in a decadent sort of way! It also demonstrates your real 
love for shit.].

6. Daddies who bring in their little PK boys and girls to pee or poop. 
[They all seem to take forever and leave nothing to speak of].

5. Those idiots that repeatedly flush a disabled toilet till it 
overflows. [Strangely, this applies mostly to older white men, most 
Hispanics [who never shit anything of value anyway and take forever to 
do it!], and many Blacks. Why do they do it? Go figure!].

4. Your trap fails at the least opportune time and can become lodged 
deep in the bowels of the toilet, way out of reach. [Yes, I've even had 
a pane of glass break from the water jet! And of course many cups have 
been lost].

3. Gays watching each other jack off, taking up stalls for hours on end 
while people are waiting in line to take a dump.

2. After hearing maintenance or security personnel comment that the 
toilets are fucked up, you get scared away and leave your traps and any 
catch in place. [Sometimes you may get that "feeling" the "I gotta get 
out of here" one and just make a run for it. Probably not a bad choice, 
but your traps will be found and removed by maintenance. They'll catch 
on after about the second time you do this].

1. You get caught and run off or arrested. [Say nothing, except to 
suggest they are making a ridiculous allegation and you have to be 
somewhere in exactly ten minutes. If arrested, this will be a 
misdemeanor criminal mischief charge that will probably not be pressed].

Coprophilia Guide: 

Exploring Coprophilia
by Bill Andriette 

People have strong feelings about shit-- some of the most visceral, 
most immediate feelings people have. Yet shit is almost never talked 
about seriously. For most of us, the subject is as secret, as 
forbidden, as homosexuality was when we were growing up. This silence 
can become a burning issue for people who have or discover erotic 
feelings around shit. As they explore and speak about what shit means, 
the rest of us can't help but be fascinated. 

IT HAS ALL the elements of sexual drama-- shattering taboos, a pungent 
assault on the senses, and plenty of cozy warm wetness. Plus it 
involves rectum and anus, not just organs of elimination, but- for gay 
men especially-- gateways to pleasure. 

So why aren't more of us into shit play? 

Nausea might have something to do with it. Even the most accomplished 
scat aficionados-- people who for whom smearing, wallowing in, and 
swallowing excrement makes them happy as the proverbial pig-- usually 
report that when they first tasted shit, they threw up. 

"Oh, it was a challenge!" recalls David, who is 38 and lives in 
Boston. "The first couple of times I got into mutual shit scenes, the 
minute I came I went running to the bathroom and puked. During the 
scene it was fine, but as soon as I came, the mentality wasn't there 
anymore, and the whole thing just grossed me out." 

Even experienced scat lovers can find nausea at the borders of 
enjoyment. "The goal of every true shit eater is to see how much he can 
eat before he barfs," contends Rob, a 38-year-old Philadelphia lawyer. 

"From the standpoint of pure taste, shit is bitter," says Neal, another 
Boston scat fan. "And of course you always have that odor wafting up 
your nose. The quality of the experience is such that after ten or 20 
seconds, there's an almost automatic gag response." 

Hardly glowing testimonials for shiteating-- coprophagy , if you want 
to get technical. But there's more to it, Neal insists, for those 
prepared to brave this not-absolutely safe form of sexual 
hijinks. "Shit has another taste, which is psychological. There is an 
incredible connection that occurs when you are lying down on your back 
and there is a guy who you are very excited about standing over you, 
crouched down, holding his knees." 

Neal continues. "He's got his anus pushed into your mouth and he starts 
to defecate, he starts to push shit out of his hole. There is an 
amazing psychological joining that occurs. This place-- the bowels, the 
sphincter, the asshole-- has got a primeval, primitive connection to 
the most fundamental things inside a man. It's so goddamn intensely 
personal and sexual." 

As much as from stimulating genitals, erotic pleasure comes from 
playing games with our minds. Sex fools around with one's sense of 
self, identity, control, and destiny. These are all issues for which 
shit is a running, if submerged, theme. The polymorphously perverse 
infant is pleasurably attuned to the tides of its bowels, their filling 
and emptying, tension and release. As babies, we bawl for food and 
defecate with blissful irresponsibility. Then civilization imposes 
itself. Via the scolds and scowls of parents, the primitive joys of 
shit and piss are transformed into disgust. Thus, to make a long story 
short, are pleasure-seeking babies extruded into anxious, responsible, 
career-minded adults. 

For most people, shit emerges from behind closed bathroom doors only in 
sickness or at the end of life. The shit of bedpans and Depends greases 
the passage from adulthood back into infantlike dependency, and 
finally, out of society entirely. We complete fleshly existence as the 
excrement of worms and microbes. As much as it is the end-product of 
the plants and animals we eat, shit is a symbol of demise. 

With its starring role in the drama of the self's origins and ends, 
it's no wonder that shit is as suffused with erotic potential as it is 
smelly, and that scat lovers wax poetic and mystical about excremenL 
David recalls he first ate shit as an initiate into a secret 
neighborhood club of fellow 12 -year-old boys, the class of humans 
drunkest on ritual and magic. "Sharing shit is one of the most secret 
acts men have," relates Rob. "I've known guys who have actually thought 
of it as a sacrament." 

Shit play takes on religious overtones in part because, like getting 
nailed to a crucifix or fasting on a pillar in the dessert, it's an 
extreme and testing experience. Putting shit in one's mouth is an 
attempt to resolve a paradox: how could something so intimately 
connected with the body and with food be so disgusting? It's a question 
as viscerally and intellectually compelling as that of God's existence 
in a world where millions perish agonizingly in gas chambers and AIDS 
wards. To believe in God or eat shit requires a courageous, and 
potentially unjustified, leap of faith. But only the latter can lay you 
low with a case of hepatitis. 

As with faith, people approach shit play in steps. Cory, a 25-year-old 
gay man, says that starting when he was about 15, he used to fantasize 
about falling into the hands of a gang of straight toughs. "In my mind 
I would have them take control over me," he tells The Guide. "They 
would make me blow them, fuck me, completely dominate me, and then use 
me as a toilet." 

When he was 17, Cory began to play with his own turds. "I would go into 
the bathroom, shit on top of the toilet seat or in a dish, and then 
while masturbating, I would lick it and smell it," he says. 'The orgasm 
was so intense." But afterwards came guilt. "I didn't know if it was 
right or if I should be doing anything like that. I still feel that 
way. I don't know why." 

Cory said that he had never talked with anyone about his interest in 
shit until he responded to The Guide's query for people interested in 
coprophilia He has engaged in shit play with only one other man. They 
connected over the phone lines, ostensibly just for vanilla sex. "We 
were sixty-nining and I was licking his ass. He said, 'What do you want 
me to do?' and I said, 'I want you to shit on me.' The minute I saw it 
start to come out I just put my mouth on it and I let him go right in 
my mouth." 

Cory's fantasy had come true. "It was really thrilling having this guy 
let me eat his shit," he recalls. 

"I felt like it was a privilege to do it for him. And I actually chewed 
it and swallowed." 

Nonetheless, Cory says he remains deep in the closet about his shit 
interests. His lover doesn't have a clue, Cory says, and he has no 
plans to tell. 

For Mike, who is 23 and lives in Shreveport, Louisiana, shit happened 
only gradually. The main theme of the sex he and his older lover have 
is dominance and submission, and scat developed out of their regular SM 
play, with Mike taking the bottom. "I would lay in the tub and he'd 
piss on me", Mike says. "Then later it got to where he'd shit on me. 
He'd piss on me first, and then he'd turn around, and I'd be eating his 
ass and then he'd do it." 

But it was "just the other day," Mike says, that he crossed the Rubicon 
and actually ate his lover's shit. "You fantasize about it, and it 
sounds great until you actually do it," Mike reports. The gagging was 
intense, he says. "To me the taste was bitter, and the overall feel of 
it in your mouth is real thick; it's like, yechh!" Timing was part of 
the problem. "When he finally did it, I was too close to coming," Mike 
suggests, "otherwise it wouldn't have been such an automatically gross 
thing." But gagging aside, Mike says he is fascinated about trying to 
eat shit again, next time when he isn't so close to orgasm. But Mike 
adds that his lover feels ambivalent about shit play, and isn't sure he 
wants to do it. 

WITH MORE than a few bowel movements to have passed his lips, David's 
puking days are behind him. The 38-year-old Bostonian is a player in 
the small but accomplished fraternity of scat. David says shit play is 
his main erotic interest and activity, one that he shares with his 
lover, who he met on the shit circuit. With the help of Jack's Number 
Two , a Houston-based magazine that is the Baedecker of gay scatology, 
David says he has no trouble finding scat buddies. "There are about 15 
people in the Boston area who are listed, and I know most of them," 
David says. "From the list I've gotten together shit parties, with 
about a dozen people. That's when my living room gets wall-to-wall 
plasticized, we put on a couple of scat films, and just have a good 
time." 

David has assembled a motley crew of scat friends. One guy he knows 
bakes aged turds into choco late chip cookies and makes his partners 
eat them. Not just any old shit will do: it has to be excre ment 
carefully aged in a jar kept in warm place, on the radiator or a sunny 
windowsill. "There's one time he came over the apartment," David 
recalls, "and I said, 'Well, I don't have any aged shit so let me zap 
it.' So I put some in the microwave, and it stunk up the whole 
building." 

Another of David's pals is into infantilism, and likes to don diapers 
and assume the identity of a toddler. But he has a rep for not being 
able to dump on demand, the scatological equivalent of chronic limp 
dick. "I knew he was coming over so I didn't flush the toilet that 
morning," David recounts. "When he arrived, I just went in and grabbed 
a handful and put it down his diapers and slapped him around with it. 
That's how he got his rocks off."

The infantilist and scat scenes are overlapping but distinct. Neal says 
he enjoys having a few beers at a bar ("It has to be a cool bar") and 
just letting go. "I find it really-exciting to be in a public place and 
piss or shit in my jeans," he says, "maybe because I'm breaking away 
from that control society places on kids when they are toilet trained." 
But throughout the experience, Neal says, his self -conception remains 
resolutely that of a grown man. 

Submission and domination is also a regular theme of shit play, 
but "top" and "bottom" can shift places. Shitting on a partner could be 
a definite turn on for a top. But being made to strip, squat, and 
defecate could be a bottom's wet dream, also. Last spring, a 
scandalized media brought the scatological exploits of Philadelphia 
insurance executive Ed Savitz to every American living room. Did the 
parochial school boys who dropped their pants to squat in Savitz's 
pizza boxes savor their submission? Or with adolescent swagger did they 
relish the thought of a middle-aged fag smelling and tasting their 
turds? Maybe both. 

"What can go on between two people gets too complex to be usefully 
described by 'top' and 'bot tom,'" says Neal. Some people into scat say 
that the sign of the true shit lover is that for them shit's erotic 
value gets disengaged from any sadomasochist or infantilist storyline, 
and just become a free -floating source of pleasure- shit for shit's 
sake. 

"It takes someone with a really good imagination to get into scat," 
says Rob, who has been in the scene for ten years. No one tells you how 
to eroticize shit, as Soloflex ads and Ryan Idol help us to eroticize 
buffed muscle-boys. In this jaded, media-drenched, era where such taboo 
images as naked children or a man dying of AIDS are put to work selling 
Benetton sweaters, shit is the rare item: richly symbolic but unspoken 
for. Madison Avenue won't even touch shit's negative power. You'll 
never see Coca Cola denigrate the competition by sponsoring billboards 
showing Pepsi bottles with big turds floating in them, or Nike ads that 
show Adidas sneaks smeared in dog doo. When it comes to putting shit's 
latent meanings to work and forging new ones, scat lovers have the 
field to themselves. 


Doing Scat

An interview with Rob, a 38-year -old lawyer who lives in Philadelphia. 

When did coprophilia become an interest for you? 

About seven to ten years ago. 

Was it something that you had thought about before then? 

Well, I've always loved rimming, and when I was in law school I met a 
guy in Boston and he introduced me to it. 

How did you start off? 

It was a master-slave scene. One night he shoved a big dildo up his 
ass, pulled it out, and told me to lick it. I did, and I got sick. 

Immediately? 

I gagged and puked. And I felt very bad afterwards. I felt very bad 
that I had not successfully done what he had asked me. So after that I 
literally got down and begged him to do it to me. 

The next time you had sex? 

It took several more tries for him to do it. 

Again you licked his dirty dildo? 

Yes, and then he would shove hot dogs up his ass and make me eat them 
out. And then he graduated to just plain sitting on my face. 

And spitting? 

Yes. 

And you'd eat it? 

Yes. 

The first time you tasted shit you say you threw up. What about 
afterwards? 

Particularly when it was done with the hot dogs there was less of a gag 
because there wasn't as much shit. That's how I was introduced to it 
and trained. 

And so as you continued eating shit, was it something that you wouldn't 
find repulsive in the same way you initially did? 

It really depends upon the total scene, and whether there's real amyl 
nitrate available. With poppers it's easier to overcome all one's 
childhood training and inhibitions, and go for the more base instincts. 

What does shit taste like? 

A lot like Camembert cheese. It's a rich, bitter, intense flavor. 
Ideally, one doesn't eat it altogether; one savors it. 

What's particularly enjoyable is literally tonguing it out of a man's 
hole and enjoying it bit by bit. 

Has shit play for you been mostly in the context of a top-bottom scene? 

Sometimes you find mutuals. And sometimes you find just plain scat 
orgies. Shit is very versatile. It makes an excellent lubrication for 
fucking; it's excellent for smearing, stroking, wallow ing in, belly-
fucking. The ideal shit is one that has the consistency of wet clay. It 
can be tongued, eaten, it can be easily smeared, it can be an excellent 
fuck and jack-off lubricant. And it can be repacked. Harder turds are 
easier to repack, though sometimes not as tasty as softer ones. I 
prefer shit without a lot of corn or other undigested things in it. 

How open are you in your interest in this to other gay people you know? 

I'm somewhat guarded because it's an unknown how they'll respond. 

What kinds of reactions have you gotten? 

It depends on their interests. Some have been turned off, others have 
been turned on. Most guys, even if they're into SM, are not into shit. 
It takes someone with a really good imagination to get into scat even 
if they're into watersports. 

Looking back, is shit something you're surprised you got into? Or does 
it seem of a keeping with your interest in SM? 

I see it as sort of a perverse little fraternity. It's a sharing of one 
of the most secret acts men have, sharing almost the forbidden essence 
of man. Men essentially have three essences: sweat, shit, and cum. Two 
are commonly shared and the third is not. 

How do you meet other people who are into this? 

There are some correspondence clubs. Sometimes you see a name on a 
bathroom wall. Some people are bold enough to wear their brown hanky. 
Often just by sheer chance you meet guys who see that you have no 
aversion to getting your dick dirty, or they notice that when you rim 
them you're literally trying to suck it out. And they get the picture 
that that's what you're looking for. 

As with any taboo sexual interest, it's hard for people to admit their 
curiosity. But most people rim, which gets you in pretty close contact 
with shit. Even if people don't talk about or do scat, I wonder how 
widely shared a fascination this is. 

I don't think there's a guy alive who likes the taste of a sweaty ass 
who hasn't at least fanta sized about it. It's just something that we 
repress, because we've been told from childhood this is something you 
don't do. Shit play goes along with the idea of being a total rebel. 
But on the other hand, a lot of guys who are into shit are ready in 
very conformist occupations; they're accountants and actuaries. 

What kinds of scenes have you taken part in lately? 

I've been to a couple of scat flicks. They're amateur and usually done 
on the spur of the moment. By common agreement these films are shown 
only to people who are into the scene. You would not show a shit flick 
to someone who you didn't know liked to eat it as well. 

Pick a recent session you had. How did it unfold? 

Well, one recently I had in New York. I was coming to fist a friend of 
mine who I get shit videos from, and when I arrived he was busy setting 
up his taping equipment. There was another guy in a suit and tie who 
was watching one of his shit flicks. I sat down and he asked me if I 
recycled, and I told him I did. Within minutes, a big hairy Italian ass 
was staring me in the face, and I was getting a blow job with the video 
camera firmly planted to get the scene. 

And then you ate his shit? 

Yup. There wasn't a great deal. I mean I do have my limits. These 
people who talk about eight- and ten-inch turds being eaten- that's 
more fantasy than reality. The body has certain natural protective 
devices- "barfing brown" is one of them. The goal of every true shit 
eater is to see how much he can eat before he barfs. 

Do people switch roles, from top to bottom? 

Oh sure. 

Is that typical? 

I don't know if it's typical. There are some guys who like to remain 
top. I think it's more typical that a bottom wants to remain bottom 
than a top wants to remain a top. I think tops, if they really enjoy 
the shit, are willing to go mutual with the right guy. Bottoms 
generally tend to want to be just the receiver. 

And does going mutual mean just switching roles and maintaining the 
basic top-bottom theme? 

It can. But more often it just means two men enjoying their full bodies 
and their potential. I mean, if you're into shit, you like the smell of 
a ripe armpit or a raunchy crotch, the taste of sweaty nuts. It just 
becomes one more activity in the total enjoyment of another man. 

Among people who would never define their erotic fantasies as having 
anything to do with shit, often in fact there is a negative 
fascination. It's very important to them that an ass is clean before 
they fuck it, or before they get fucked they want to make sure they're 
douched. In other words, there's a strong need to keep shit out of the 
sexual picture. 

That's really a North American trait. It's really not so true in Europe 
or other places. Americans have an over-fascination with hygiene. I 
think that in Europe-- particularly Germany and the Netherlands-- it's 
more common that there are guys who see shit as an adjunct to heavy man-
to-man play. Shit is not just a top-bottom activity. To many of us it's 
an adjunct to fully sharing of another man. Think about it- you've 
probably seen dozens of guys fucking, hundreds of guys masturbating. 
But how many guys have ever let you see them shit? There is a 
brotherhood. I mean, once you've eaten a guy's shit, there's no sense 
bullshitting him around anything else. It's a unique leveler.
