There's a reason why some people hang toilet paper over while others hang it under - it has to do with folding, and they don't want the paper to hurt

The+One+And+Only+Correct+Way+To+Hang+Your+Toilet+Paper-3048017586

I just had two different rolls of toilet paper sitting in my bathroom, and looking at them from the shower I got an epiphany.

Some rolls are soft on both sides, while some only on external one!

And if you have the latter and tend to rip two squares and fold (and it's easier to fold downside up), if you hang it over you'll end up with the rough side!

Those people just don't want to hurt their bums! All while the rest enjoys more easy access to toilet paper while hanging it over.

Endless debate...solved?

The patent for the toilet paper roll clearly shows the roll going over. Any other way is user error.

I'm super confused why you got so many upvotes and I got so many downvotes. Were people just reading my comment wrong or something?

Edit: I realize the downvotes now. I missed the “never” in the comment I replied to

That patent expired more than a century ago.

Society has moved on.

People who care this much about dunny paper must not have much else going on .

Here's a tip to ensure your toilet use is hygienic no matter howe the paper is stored: After you take a shit, wipe, then wash your hands

That wasn't the point being discussed, but good on you for knowing basic hygiene.

I replied to a comment saying one way of putting bog roll on is more hygienic...
