why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread?

the separated from the toilet kind.

I don't understand how those work at all...seems like that would be a recipe for poop tracks from the toilet.

well... it is time to explain to an internet stranger how we clean our bum.

  • you shit on the toilet
  • you wipe with tp one or two times
  • get up, sit on the bidet
  • water, soap on the hand, and you scrub your ass with your hand, no this is not gay
  • go again with water and soap until you feel your ass is clean
  • dry with a small towel

the towel is generally personal, and we change it every couple of days.

That may have been sarcastic, but I appreciated the info. It beats having to take a shower.

What part of cleaning your ass could be misconstrued as gay? Feels like an unnecessary aside, haha. Thanks for the step by step though, that makes sense!

i legit have no idea, but on every tread talking about bitets, there is always someone that discards it because is gay to touch your own ass

Legit question: Do you wash your hands again after that?

oh, yes, felt like it was obvious... i'm not touching anything without washing my hands after that.

Well I mean I do that in the shower, and I don't wash my hands again after the shower, so I have no idea what the mentality is.
