"Love and Enemas", Toilet Humor, 19th Century

Entitled: "La Ribotte" A man and a woman standing together in nightclothes each holding a long-necked funnel; the man also holds a pitcher; to the right is a wheeled commode. Toilet humor is a type of off-color humor dealing with defecation, urination, and flatulence, and to a lesser extent vomiting and other body functions. Toilet humor is popular among a wide range of ages, but is especially popular with children and teenagers, for whom cultural taboos related to acknowledgement of waste excretion still have a degree of novelty. An enema or clyster, is a fluid injected into the lower bowel by way of the rectum. The most frequent use of an enema is as a cleansing enema (also called a soapsuds enema) which is given to relieve constipation or for bowel cleansing before a medical examination or procedure. Lithograph by Gaudissart, 19th century.
