Latrinalia is a type of deliberately inscribed or etched marking made on latrines; that is, bathrooms or lavatory walls. It can take the form of art, drawings, or words, including poetry and personal reflections. Other types of latrinalia include political commentary and notes on love as well as derogatory comments and pictures. When done without the property owner's consent, it constitutes vandalism. Some venues have attempted to curb such vandalism by installing in the lavatory large blackboards and providing free chalk; it is hoped that patrons will avail themselves of the blackboard and chalk rather than applying their latrinalia directly to the walls or toilet stalls.
Maledictology is the branch of psychology that investigates emotional expression through swearing. Swearing is defined as ‘uttering offensive emotional speech’. One of the main theories explaining swearing is the Neuro-Psycho-Social theory. This theory uses a multi-disciplinary approach to understand the causes and uses of swearing. For example, potential uses include slang, humour elicitation, and expression of emotion. Maledictology research is limited as psychologists and linguists who research swearing often categorize their findings separately.
