Explain bidets for me please.
How do you not drip back onto it? Do you use paper too? How is it okay for me to use the same one right after Typhoid Larry? Doesn't poo go everywhere?
It just seems so weird.

When you touch something dirty, do you feel cleaner when you wipe your hands off with paper or when you wash them under a sink?
That makes sense, but it’s the mechanics we’re asking about here. Like, how do you aim it? How do you dry off?
The generic and basic ones you might have to sit in a slightly different position depending on where you sit, but the more expensive ones have an arm that you can move forward or backward to aim where you need it. I use it almost all the way forward, husband uses it most of the way back.
Ours has a fan - you can adjust how warm the air is and how hard it blows (I don't like it too warm because it feels like it burns my asshole). You use the fan to get as dry as you want to - a lot like the machines that dry your hands at public restrooms, actually. When you're done, you're either dry enough to pull up your pants and wash your hands, or you use a lot less tp to dry the last few droplets.
It's fixed so you may have to move a little bit it's not a big deal. I drip dry for a minute or two and then dry off with toilet paper.
How do you keep from pooping on it when you have one of those days?
You generally don't. The nozzles retract so they're way up by the seat. I think in 5 years of having a bidet I've had to clean poop of the fixture (not the nozzle) once, and that's with someone with IBS in the house.
