why do our noses & anuses think different types of paper are softest?
I've had hemorrhoids for like 25 years, so I've always been very discerning about my toilet paper.
this entire time, I've been using whatever toilet paper I have found to be the softest as facial tissue, to blow my nose, as well. my reasoning being, if this stuff is gentle enough for my hemorrhoids, of course it's going to be gentle enough for repeated use on my upper lip.
then, a friend turns me on to one of those new "with lotion" facial tissues (my bathroom tissue always has aloe in it) and wouldn't you know it, my upper lip finds it to be softer than the toilet paper. but, when I try using it as toilet paper, my anus doesn't find it to be less irritating than the toilet paper.
why do my butthole and my upper lip think that different things are softer? is it just chemistry?
Get a bidet!!! No irritation, just dab dry, helps immensely.
I tried the bidet but it's too powerful for my nose, just felt like I was waterboarding myself. 0/10, not recommend.
It takes some practice to perfect your toilet netipot technique.
i have one! that didn't make the question in the back of my mind go away unfortunately
Hmm interesting. My experience is that the type of toilet paper matters much less with a bidet. I barely feel the paper in that case.
I didn't say it didn't eliminate the problem, I said it didn't make the question in the back of my mind go away
Oh, gotcha
