My mum's told me about putting newspaper on the seat of the outdoor toilet in the middle of winter if you absolutely had to go in the night, to make it bearable (1950s northern England). The warmth of someone else's arsecheeks is much more preferable to that, thanks.

I would have to agree with that - I'd rather have someone else's butt take the full brunt of an outdoor, nighttime, northern England, cold toilet seat. Lol - those types of cold seats are what taught me to "hover" when necessary. (Well, not specifically the same as northern England outdoor toilets, but similar)

Composting outhouse with styrofoam seat is actually really nice :D especially if it's used enough to keep the composting going, then when it's really cold outside one may experience the joy of steamy composting shit warming up your butt while going on your business. Not too bad even in the Finnish winter. Cold plastic seat in the outhouse is the worst.
