| 词源 | the flying toilet. An expression heard in the huge foul slum called Dharavi in Mumbai, India. Dharavi is just one of many places worldwide where most people haven’t even the simplest sewage systems. For example, in Kibera, a fetid slum, people defecate in plastic bags that they dump in ditches or toss across the street—a pratice they call the flying toilet. |
