No, everyone around the world poos once every day or every 2 days, if they're healthy.

Should be.
I’ve been backed up before. Make sure to watch your fibre intake.
Only time that happens is when I’m camping.
Kind of but its subcultural like fascists only eat meat and anything that's not meat and dick shaped will just make the gay thoughts stronger they only poop once a week most of the rest of us have eating disorders so like that can happen but it varies wildly I'm sure not on average some of us use laxatives or enemas multiple times a day there is an opiate epidemic so that can make you only poop once a week if you've ever done those you know it can vary regionally but it varies by culture if you come here and pack your lunches or something you'll probably poop the normal amount you poop its purely cultural
USAians eat burgers, fries, and high-fructose corn syrup. They sit on the toilet trying to excrete their non-fluid bodily waste on average for 8-9 minutes due to a horrendous lack of fiber. More than 72% are overweight and 47% are obese.
If I had to guess, once a week sounds about right for the average Magastanian. Not sure about the rest.
