You’re a dude. It’s a hole.
Put your dick in it.
Port hole for petting a very needy kitty with attachment anxiety.

Fuck, wait! I meant an actual cat!
Quite an awkward position for a glory hole.
I miss this meme
I hate when that happens and you have to lick it all up before the dog beats you to it.
What a terrible day to have eyes.
I thought it was to start the shower without getting the cold or hot water all over you.
Distance and accuracy training.
Logical
It’s so you can get a nice wet spot on the floor for that maximum bathroom aesthetic.
The hole is there to allow water to pass through the shower wall and accrue on the floor surface around the toilet, enhancing the sock experience of toiletgoers.
isn’t that what the shaggy pee mat in front of the toilet is for?
How do you suck at aiming so bad if you’re peeing on the floor?
I don’t understand your question. You’re asking how I suck at aiming if I am peeing on the floor, but I never said I was missing the pee mat.
I’m not peeing on the floor, I’m peeing on the shaggy pee mat. Hence the name
Peeing on shaggy?
Do you have a penis? The stream can start off rather unpredictably. Especially in the morning, or post-coitus.
I do, I also have foreskin meaning the stream is funnelled into a hose and doesn’t spray out in weird directions.
Wait. This is a totally alien thought to my entire life experience. I suppose you don’t pull it back do you? For whatever reason I think that’s how I imagined it? Honestly, I don’t think I have ever imagined it to be fair.
Just wait till you learn how cold shrinkage affects the peeing experience for un-cut folks! Let’s just say it doesn’t all shrink uniformly…
I do pull it back, idk about the other guys wiener but for me the skin makes for a more unpredictable stream.
ah that’s it then. All this time I was pulling the other guy’s
I do not. Imagine a garden hose, if you use just the hose water comes out as an even flow, if you covered the end up with your fingers it would pressure spray widely between the gaps.
It’s not like the direction it’s pointed and the direction it goes have any bearing on each other.
I’ve never had that issue? I was thinking it’s a circumcised thing, but you’re potentially British.
It‘s for wetting your hand while on the toilet. This enables you to wipe and clean your ass with your wet hand.
Lol why do you need the shower for that? The toilet already has water and it’s right there.
Uhh…hmm
What has happened to the internet today. Why is it like this
The manual bidet
You jest but the manual method was all we had in 2013 Konya.
At that rate, just get in the damn shower
No.
The boring answer is that its for reaching the shower controls for adjusting the temperature and pressure without the need to stand under the shower. Mostly for people with disabilites or people who needs aides.
temperature and pressure
mfw i realize that shower is a chemistry reactor
Wouldn’t this also let water out and on to the floor? Surely a sliding or hinged opening couldn’t have been that hard to implement
It’s also in a very terrible spot for that purpose. It would be very awkward to reach the controls from that angle and where the toilet is at.
Well obviously you are supposed to straddle the toilet and face the wall to get a better reach
Or even just a piece of shower curtain glued along the top of the hole.
Assuming you are bound to a wheelchair you probably won’t shower normally anyway
I don’t see how this changes anything. My guess is someone in a wheel chair would use the hand held showerhead more often, which means while maneuvering the shower, it would be possible to accidently spray right out that hole and soak the bathroom.
It would reduce the amount of water flying against the glass. But yes the mess will be the same
People who are in wheelchairs still shower the same amount. Depending on the nature of their impairment they may be able to stand long enough to shower, or they may climb into the tub and have a shower bench, or they may have an assistant who helps them shower. It’s pretty ableist to assume that someone with a mobility impairment isn’t able to maintain their hygiene.
They didn’t say they shower less, they said they may not shower normally.
Showering with assistance, using a shower bench: these are not the ways people shower normally. That does not imply that these methods are unhygienic.
It won’t let out a ton since the water is spraying in an arc that misses it. There will be some water that splashes out after hitting you or the shower walls, but it’s not going to soak the floors or anything.
I doubt it won’t make much of a mess. My shower had a few leaky spots of caulking and that was enough to ruin the floors.
That’s a different issue since water pools around the caulk lines.
I’ve stayed in hotels that didn’t even have glass for the first foot or so of the shower and it was a non-issue, although I definitely expected it to be.
shut up prude, we all know it’s a glory hole for elephants
I don’t doubt this may be the purpose but the execution looks bad. It may be an illusion but it seems a little far away from the water controls, you’d have to go past elbow deep. The toilet is definitely in the way. You can’t get to it with a wheelchair or while standing, you have to be sitting on the toilet.
I found this which confirms it’s for adjusting the controls before getting in. I think this one in particular didn’t have people with disabilities in mind and is a poor execution all around.
It just occurred to me that it’s not a sliding door, so this is plausible.
That’s even more confusing, why not forego the shower glass entirely and just have a shower curtain instead?
Yes I know it’s likely retrofitted, but I won’t pass a chance to say that shower curtains are superior. Shower glass looks glossy in brochures, but everyone IRL has a sad squeegee hanging from it.
I have the sad squeegee, but I really think that the rest of my shower is cleaner longer because I now routinely squeegee the water away so mold doesn’t grow. Not something I could do with a shower curtain.
Shower curtains cling to your body while you shower and get moldy
Even the cheapest shower curtains have extra sewn in threads at the bottom which weigh them down and prevent clinging.
Mould isn’t an issue if you’re airing out the bathroom properly, and washing the curtains every week or so.
Glass is also prone to mould as well, but you can’t just throw out it. The tracks they require are particularly difficult to keep clean and give me the heeby jeebies.
Washing curtains is infinitely easier than maintaining and cleaning the glass tracks.
Need to get a better shower curtain then! Or swap the rod for a curved one, or both
this is totally incorrect. its actual purpose is for the bathing wife to be able to give hand to her husband while he’s dumping a load
Or the other way. She can pleasure the husband while he’s showering and she is on the John
I was thinking of that one but I don’t know his name.

My first thought was to flush the toilet whenever you needed warmer water. I used to rent an apartment where I had to turn on cold water in the sink to get hot enough water in the shower.
This doesn’t even make sense from a plumbing perspective
that’s what I thought at first, but there is actually a way that it makes sense
you have hot water and cold water with a certain amount of pressure behind them feeding your apmt. if you turn the shower to full hot, the valve is still going to mix it with cold water. however if you take the cold water out at the sink prior to the shower feed, it’s not going to be replaced by more cold water if the system doesn’t have enough supply to keep up with it. so your shower water is being mixed with less cold water than before, resulting in a hotter mixed stream from the shower head
and like maybe there’s other things going on and it’s not the same in every situation and all that, but you can test this yourself and get this result, so…
Do not have a temperature dial on your shower that lets you control this directly? If I feel like I need to burn my skin off I can turn the temperature all the way up and have 100% hot water.
must be nice to have such a hot water supply with high pressure
not everybody has that
Check your hot shower privilege
My golden shower offers constant warm temperature, but twisting the knobs does nothing.
I don’t know what world you are from but my showers have also gone hot when the toilet is flushed
Its so you can poop in the shower and toss it in the toilet. Stomping it down clogs the drain
“Wafflestomp it down the drain” I think about that post weekly, still. I dont think im ok
Maybe poop in the shower less :)
Looks like they installed it backwards, otherwise you’d be able to piss right into the toilet from the shower… because some people think it’s gross to wee in the shower.
For the truly enlightened it allows you to piss into the shower while standing on the toilet.
It never bothered me, but then I had to replace the 2nd floor bathroom junction from the ceiling below, and saw that the tub, sink, and toilet all join and go into the same pipe. It doesn’t matter which drain it goes into, it’s all the same pipe.
Might be handy info at a big party. Pee wherever you want, just keep it off the floor.
Sure it all leaves through the same pipe, but it’s not like you stand in the toilet, no one ever lays down and soaks in the toilet, most of us don’t put children in the toilet.
Most people wash their tubs regularly. A little pee is going to wash right away.
Weekly? Every couple weeks? So you’re good standing in pee for a couple weeks, or you expect no one else to take a shower for a couple weeks?
It’s pee, not glue, it washes right off. Don’t you shower with soap and water? Wouldn’t that washes the pee down the drain, every single time you use it? It’s basically the same method you use in the dishwasher to clean the utensils you EAT with.
My dishwasher uses high speed jets of 160° water to scour and sanitize.
Um… Define “regularly”
Every time you use it.
Most people definitely don’t clean their shower/tub every time they use it.
Water and soap coats the surfaces, rinses off and goes down the drain. It’s washed good enough for pee.

Women can too, yes
