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

Not gatekeeping, but if you have never seen one, this is a proper bidet https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/35/Bidet_weiss.jpg/623px-Bidet_weiss.jpg

I installed on the kamode at the beginning of year and it's been a game changer.

But for an installed bidet, after business, do you just move over, sit, turn on the tap, then aim? I've seen them in the movies, but it's not like they show the process.

When I googled it last, what I found was like, "fill the basin, then use your hands or a rag." That sounds pretty messy, if that's how those OG taint tubs work.

These are mandatory in Italy from my understanding, but I much prefer the Japanese style

That’s kinda intimidating I’m not gonna lie but probably only because I’ve only ever wiped my ass with soft squares and now you’re telling me I’m supposed to stick my ass hole by this spout and let it blast me insides clean
