Have You Taken the Bidet Pill?

[The Beast1]

- Cleans rear with water.
- Actually Cleans instead of smears.
- Didn't care about TP shortage during Rona.
- Don't bother with tushy, Luxe Bidet is cheaper.
- get a squatty potty and enjoy your new royal throne.
My life has changed. My body refuses to number 2 outside of my house because of how clean I feel.

Friends, have you taken the bidet pill yet?

I prefer bidets when available. I used my shower nozzle when I lived in apartments that had wet bathrooms (shower and toilet without any separation). Bidets are much cleaner and it feels uncivilized to not use water to clean after doing 'big business.'

Once you go to bidets (or shower nozzles), you can't go back to toilet paper and feel the same. Same goes for squatting vs. sitting the western way when doing big business. Squatting the Arab way is more efficient and makes more sense.

Don't agree. I've taken many a BM in austere conditions and the Haji Squat as we called it is not superior to a toilet.

Haji squat? Does it involve blonde Ukrainian female entrepreneurs in Dubai?

Anytime someone mentions they've been to Dubai, my wife ponders if they went to do precisely this.

For the patricians among us, I prefer to squat on a western toilet with a bidet attachment.

I should specify that I dislike a simple hole in the floor. It is better if you have a squat toilet on a platform and have a handrail as well. Of course, the western style toilets are superior if they are the Japanese kind that have a bidet with warm water and an air dryer as well. I used one when I went to Japan and was thoroughly impressed.

I just only shit at home and always take a shower after.

But then your butt stays wet after its washing. Shouldn't you dry it? Otherwise water will drip down.

Pat dry with TP after rinsing.

So I need toilet paper anyway? Doesn't sound so convenient now. So it's a complement to toilet paper, not a replacement. I need full drying from the bidet or no deal. I can't walk around with moist undies.

To be fair, unless you have the really fancy bidets that blow dry your heiny, you'll still be using TP but at a significantly reduced rate. Something like a one to 3 sheets per sitting.

I buy bulk rolls from sam's club. Before the bidet, we'd go through a full pack in a month. With it, it's been extended to 3 months between my wife and I.

This was very useful during the TP shortage of 2000.

Edit:
I know you're looking for a complete solution in your second post. Take a look at this https://www.amazon.com/Bejoan-Elect...jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

You'll still want to keep some TP on standby but that will give you the all in one solution you desire.

I am saving up for the Japanese toilets that are all in one bidets, dryers, and self cleaners built into the entire toilet, not just a lid.

I was often able to skip toilet paper if I used water. A few drops of water will dry off in a few minutes and you get used to being a bit wet. Of course, using a couple sheets of TP is better.

The bidet thing just sounds so peculiar to me. Squirting water directly onto my bum seems like a bit like something that would give me the hebegeebees. Even after a shower, when I know I am clean I will still have to wipe my rear end for fear water may be left in my cheeks... so doing a fire for effect on the old rear end would just be a bridge too far.

No wonder a culture so decadent as the French orignated it.

My 400 lb morbidly obese work colleague got one and goes on and on about it... but I am pretty sure that is because he and his Mrs are incapable of actually manually doing the proper cleanup on isle 5.

Team Shower After for the win.

 

[chance vought]

Yeah the Japanese ones have different sprays, front (for the ladies) and rear, adjustable water temp, pulse, position, and water pressure, adjustable seat heat, adj dryer heat, his/hers setting memory buttons, automatic flush, and built in charcoal filter that sucks the stinky air down through the bowl and filters out the side (thru the filter).

cost 0.1 BTC but they keep getting cheaper

So, any malfunction of the flush/charcoal/suction gear, and disaster would strike... Your nether parts would get sucked to oblivion or crushed by hot, high-pressure water, if the system bugs. That would weigh heavily on my mind and private, er, thoughts, while sitting.

How do you travel and not shit? Do you only take day trips?

Next step is getting it off the power grid so it can’t be hacked…maybe a UPS can filter out any attempted hijacking.

Lodging bathroom counts as home of course.

I apologize but are you being serious or sarcastic? If funny then a *woooossshh* from the flushing toilet is in order.
