History of Toilet Paper


History of Toilet Paper


Splinter free toilet paper was not manufactured until the 1930’s in the USA, or so is history reported.

Ouch, the thought of getting splinters in my private areas just drives me wild.

Speaking for myself, I have enough problems already.

Suddenly, outhouses (privy’s) and other such ways to depose of our pee and poop may not be too bad, all in all. After all, we do pee and poop, and we do need to get rid of it before we get sick from it.

Last an old joke is applicable. The fellow who built the place where I now live was complaining about his grandchildren using too much toilet paper. Well, one young kid remarked to him that perhaps they were the only people in the County who even used toilet paper.  That may have been correct at the time (circa 1910 I guess).
