Haha, its not really that gross to ask. I mean, everyone does it. Just like 'Somethin' on Flavor of Love .. lol but anyways, I'm that way, too. I have a stack of magazines that I read. But who cares if it is biologically imprinted in us, it's better than just sitting there, right?

It was probably just the way you were raised. Your parents probably gave you a book or something to read when you were younger and after you were potty trained to keep you sitting on the pot until you did something.
It's just an old fashioned habit, a habit you can break if you want.

brave question. it certainly helps pass the time, and it can distract us from over-pushing/straining, which can result in harm to the nether region. when we poo, it really is one of the few times in a day in which we have a singular duty -- no pun intended. there's usually too much stimuli around us outside the bathroom that we cannot get any reading in.

Some people just like their attention to be focused elsewhere and not concerned with what they're pushing out. LOL
It's a relaxation technique.

It probably stems from when you were a child . Maybe your mom used to read you a book while you pooped. By the way, I don't read.

No, there is not an interlock that causes that. Most people don't read while in there. The air is not the freshest you know and you get in and get out!

it's probably the way you were taught when you were young. Some people are able to go without anything to read. if it works for you do it.

Reading something just helps you relax.

It gives you something to focus on. LoL Like I play hand held poker while pooping.
