This is what everyone means when they say they wipe ‘standing up’ and afaik more than half the world probably does this.
honestly if anyone considers a squat to be standing then that is what makes me question their sanity
I'm a squatter. But when someone asks me if I sit or stand, I say stand because I'm not technically sitting my ass on the toilet. I'd wager most people who say "stand" are doing the same.
I would consider squatting a form of sitting not standing but if that's what people mean then it at least makes more sense to me.
Squatting is distinct from sitting though because sitting necessitates your ass touching something.
that's a weird definition, i'd define sitting as not using your gluteus maximus while also not leaning against something to accomplish that (including laying down, you're leaning against the floor).
