One of these outhouses in the District Town and I have seen it used by the locals many times. Fortunately, we (my team and I) had an outhouse that was much more familiar and easy to use. The small pond below the “tree house” contained a species of catfish that reached a rather large size. The vietnamese would catch them and eat them. Yuk!

@Tina: ha ha… I originally bought a Freshette a few years back. It looks like the same thing. Peeing isn’t so much of a problem w/ them, though you feel kinda gender confused when you use it. But what about the other calling?

It makes me impervious. I can pee anywhere. In dank bus toilets, off tall buildings, in bizarre suspended river squatters. I’m fearless, I tell you. http://www.go-girl.com/

@Ekua: Sorry bout that- ha ha.. Think I was so mortified and grateful for not using it, I forgot to explain that part. You straddle on the tree branches and squat. The fish down below will shout “Dinner time!”
