I’m currently touring the Palace of Versailles in France and all this talk about Marie Antoinette’s fancy parties got me thinking … I know that people typically used chamber pots in their own homes, and peasants may have just defecated in the street, but when at a fancy party of 200+ dignitaries and royals from all over the world, what did people do when they needed to poo? Especially the ladies in those poofy dresses, how did they manage that?
