How does she know about that, though - are they the kind of couple who don't lock the bathroom when they're going about their business?
I assume that he took the shirt off as he was walking out the room, before goimg into the bathroom...
How paranoid do you have to be to lock the bathroom door when you're poopin'? That only makes sense if you've got little kids that don't yet fully grasp the concept of privacy.
Even closing the door is unnecessary with close family. Besides, the cats like to hang out while I'm doing business.
Yuck, who wants to have poop smell in the rest of the house/apartment?
Locking the door is the quick and easy way to signal that the room is occupied, knocking and/or asking and waiting for an answer would invariably take longer and create uncomfortable situations whenever someone doesn't remember or doesn't have the patience to wait for the answer or is just visiting and assuming that everyone locks the door when they use the bathroom.
Does your bathroom not have a fan?
A person visibly sitting on a toilet is an even clearer signal, though.
Anyway, the smell signals the cats that it's time to hang out in the bathroom.
It does in fact not have a fan, and frankly I doubt that a would keep the smell completely out of the hallway if you leave the door open.
The cat can get fucked.
Don't fuck cats. That's nasty.
Not even a window in the bathroom? That's also nasty. In my country, bathrooms are required to be ventilated.
Also, most shits shouldn't reek so much the odor fills multiple rooms. That's a separate issue.
Depending on the direction of wind, an open window might blow the poop smell into the rest of the house/apartment even harder. Just close the damn door FFS.
You don't maintain a positive pressure in your home? No wonder it smells like shit.
I live in a 60 year old apartment building, there is very much not an exhaust fan. The smell radiates throughout the apartment if you don't close the door.
I live in a 100-year-old house and every bathroom is ventilated.
There is no windows and no fans in the bathroom in any of the units here, and every apartment I've lived in over the years didn't have them either. It doesn't appear to be a code violation here, though the codes may differ between houses and apartment buildings.
Stinktastic.

I lock the door out of habit any time I'm in there, even if I'm home alone and just shaving my face or something.
People literally walk in if you don’t lock it despite obvious signs like the light underneath the door.
Right, so leave the door open so they can tell it's occupied.
