I usually dig a hole about a foot deep and then launch one.
I’m not carrying that ridiculous COS ...
My parents came from a culture where you had good squatting muscles because there wasn’t much furniture to sit on, and you sat around by squatting. So if you are not launching one, but rather having a “failure to launch” or just having a long, hard time, then your legs are going to give out if you don’t have much practice squatting.
As a female, doing any type of business also requires that you aren’t around much brush or you might find a tick riding you.
My trick was to take my little trovel and find a tree with low hanging branches to hold onto. Well, I would improvise, making sure it was well off the path. Like the time I was surprised by the Boy Scout troupe.
Thank God for modern toilets with bidets.
