To allow a male to perform seated urination as wearing pants or underwear without lowering the pants or the underwear to the vicinity of the knees, in a Western-style toilet bowl used for both feces and urine.
A toilet seat or a hip-placing base has a shape such that the central axis of each thigh of a user is inclined downward (forward-downward) by an angle of about 20 degrees or above to a horizontal plane when a male that is the user places the hips on the upper face of a distal end part of the toilet seat or the upper face of the hip-placing base installed to the distal end part of the toilet seat and sits facing the front on the toilet seat in a state that the toilet seat is positioned between both the knees. Thereby, the ascent of the lower end of a front opening part of the pants worn by the male is suppressed.
