I'm sure many people, especially women, avoid drinking water to avoid the inevitable search for cover.
I am a male walking the CF next April. It is fact that people have been taking dumps in nature for centuries. If I need to do so I'll be finding a private spot (if possible) and using a small trowel to bury what I leave behind. It is completely unreasonable and filthy to carry human waste around with you. There is a reason why it is called waste.Please do not attempt to bury toilet paper along the Camino.
Carry a hankerchief and wash it each evening or carry a ziplock bag and carry your paper out.
There is an entire thread on this if you're interested, complete with horrible photos of what it looks like when people leave behind their mess!

There are laws against human waste in basura. It should be disposed of in a septic system or municipal treatment system. It makes sense from a public health standpoint.A double zip lock will work just fine and you can dump it in the trash at the end of the day.

This day on my Camino, I found one town's solution. You're welcome to read. http://kathyfootenotes.wordpress.com/2013/06/26/caminodecampostella/

Not the poo just the paper...There are laws against human waste in basura. It should be disposed of in a septic system or municipal treatment system. It makes sense from a public health standpoint.
Everybody's different and every body is different, but I hiked this chemin in sept/oct and never had to use anything but standard plumbing for waste. Just wasn't an issue. And if course I wasn't camping.
