If it had the same consistency that would explain a lot. Aren't Bolians the ones with a cartilaginous lining on their tongue.
They spend all day eating acid and baked beans.

Imagine being the one race in Starfleet that has like, 20 litre craps every single day and everyone else knows this.
^Please tell me all about this. I would just assume they do it in the woods? Or is it that they are too pretty and no one can imagine it?
This discussion proves that none of us have anything better to do with our time.

Oh I do but I'd rather spend it in toilet humor.
Next we'll be talking about how women of the 24th century deal with their periods!
There were detailed arguments for both sides. You can google 'elves' and 'bathroom' and come up with all kinds of interesting links.
By that point in time I doubt that women even have periods anymore.
It's possible now to dispense with the whole thing for months at a time now so in the future it will probably be a thing of the past.
^ In that case, sign me up for living in the 24th century immediately!
hux, eww!

DS9 said contraception was one hypospray shot a month.
Either men and women are given different stuff, or we're dealing with some sort of weak short half life sexually transmitted virus, so that the man can inoculate his lady, if she forgets to get the shot herself.
A shot in the arm to get rid of all babies for 30 days, sounds like probably that women taking this shot do not allow themselves a menstrual cycle, period.
As long as everyone is receiving contraception or pregnant, there are no periods, except when a man and a woman are trying unsuccessfully to have a baby, or there is some reason, maybe an allergy, that they can't take this clever modern marvel.
That sounds identical to the Depo-Provera shot. I would've thought that the doctors could maybe zap something inside a woman's body to stop the cycle until they wanted a baby and then make everything work naturally again, and then re-zap after baby.
I don't see the issue here. The Bolians were concerned about early 21st century human plumbing, not modern, super-advanced plumbing on a top-of-the-line starship (no doubt inspired by early Vulcan interest in starship development, and further made cleaner by the thousands of civilizations - including Bolians - who had developed the greatest plumbing imaginable).
The first quote in this thread shows that functioning lavatories are high-energy using systems. Probably self-cleaning in an order of magnitude even greater than that of a holodeck.
In my judgment, using a fully-functional lavatory after a Bolian has exited involves no risk. I may be concerned, however, if there are multiple toilets and a Bolian walks in with me.

Eugenics is illegal, and we don't have an accurate 24th century definition of Eugenics.

I've gone into toilets after certain humans have used them and been violently assailed by a heinous, intolerable stench. I'm guessing Bolians - and what they eat with that cartilaginous tongue - produce a glorious monument to crap which inexorably contains within it, a powerful pungent experience.
Could be wrong though. Maybe it's the Orions.

Bollian waste might melt a toilet.
Active Pheromone leftovers in their shit, would make Earthmen (and other cow species) fall in love with a toilet recently used by an Orion, and then they would be irreversibly compelled to make love to the soiled bowl.

Stick a comm-badge up my arse and beam the contents into space.
You know how you're not allowed to boink a new species for fear it may turn you into a blind gerbil, well does the same apply when it comes to letting a new species take a dump in your toilet? What if their droppings contain a powerful chemical that makes all humans go into comas?
Some Federation scientist somewhere has the job of finding out.
I still don't know who fixes them when they break though. Engineering?
Is that your colon I can see out the window?
Besides, doesn't the comm-badge transport all matter within the badges proximity otherwise why all those episodes where they simply remove the comm-badge to avoid being transported?
Really stupid question, do aliens even have periods? Obviously humans and animals do but what about other galactic species?
