Back when toilets, washing machines, poker tables or modern amenities were not yet available -- that's how we did almost everything: taking a dump (hole on the bathroom floor, dont ask me about the plumbing i have no idea), washing clothes (a big basin and a very small foot stool to sit on or just do the squat), cock fighting or gambling with dice/coins on the ground (men huddled together squatting -- probably so the wives wouldn't see them as they were much lower than the fences!), it just seemed a natural sitting position for our small frames..

It is a natural position. Our bodies are made to work in that position.
OMG if you weren't Asian that would sound so racist lol XD
That's an interesting historical lesson though. Thanks :D
