See More → There is a memorable scene in the 2012 film This Is 40, where Pete (Paul Rudd) is caught pretending to use the toilet so he can scroll on his iPad in peace. “I know you’re not actually pooping,” his wife Debbie (Leslie Mann) screams. Pete says nothing and returns to the screen in front of him. It was only recently, when my own girlfriend commented on the “abnormal” amount of time I supposedly “spend on the loo”, that I began to wonder if all men are destined to devote the majority of their adult lives to using – or pretending to use – the toilet. Or if I just had a lot in common with a fictional character. According to research carried out in 2018 by bathroom company Pebble Grey, Pete and I are not alone. The study found that a third of men in the UK spend more than seven hours a year on the toilet, “enjoying respite” and “avoiding stress”. Curious, I designed a survey of my own and sent it out to 38 men aged between 19-55 to ask about their toilet habits. Sure enough, 92 percent reported they spend 20 minutes or longer sitting on their porcelain thrones. Just over 70 percent said they took upwards of 30, even 40 minutes. Six people admitted to regularly spending an hour on there (fucking hell!). For comparison, I asked 10 women the same question – all said they spent no longer than 10 minutes in the bathroom.

Because they consider it a “safe space”. As Andy, from Belfast, puts it: “It’s a chance to reset and it is guaranteed uninterrupted time for you and you alone.” Clearly, the bathroom is much more than a space for men to relieve bodily waste – it is one they occupy for psychological relief too, which actually says more about the state of men’s mental wellbeing than it does about why they spend longer in the bathroom than women. The shame so many men associate with talking about their feelings is well known: A 2019 study revealed 58 percent of men in the US, UK, Canada and Australia still feel under pressure to be “emotionally strong and to show no weakness”. It’s hardly surprising, then, that what Jackson appears to suggest is that a man’s ideal therapy session – which is essentially what his trip to the toilet becomes – consists of him spending up to an hour on his own, without having to talk to anybody at all. “The cave is an important place,” Jackson says, “so long as it doesn’t become a den of avoidance.”
