    Asians must be imune to knee problems, If I had to use a toilet like this I would just sit on the floor lol my knees don’t work that well

      It’s more like squatting is part of their culture and they don’t have knee problems because of it.

      You can get there too. Start working towards deep squatting everyday and your knee pain will go away.

      Many people in that part of the world retain the ability, largely lost in the “west”, to squat with their feet flat on the floor. That reduces the strain on the knees/leg muscles while “straining “ 🙂
