Comment on "No toilet, no bride"

In a country where more households have TV sets than lavatories

This seems insane.

Indoor plumming is perhaps somewhat involved but what about outdoor lavatories?

Maybe my image of rural Britain having outhouses everywhere is mistaken or occurred at a latter stage of development...

Think that's insane? What about this:

"Some upper-caste communities are not happy having lavatories in their homes because tradition dictates that such an arrangement is unclean.

Mr Monda said: “People do not want to go to the toilet in the home where they cook food. And many old people enjoy the opportunity to go for a walk. It gives them the opportunity to check on their fields.” "
