i do not understand american’s aversion to the bidet. why would i want to wipe my ass with dry fucking paper rather than water? why why why. like it’s somehow ‘gross’ to use water. but scraping at wet shit with fucking tissue paper is hygienic and normal?
I got one with a dryer that makes that a lot better. It does take too long to fully dry it though, so it’s this middle ground of not too wet to dry off, and not waiting forever for the dryer.
Pretty much every thread we have in this community, someone comes along to say “you should pressure-wash your asshole”. I’m mildly bemused that this is what Lemmy obsesses over.
Somebody once said it to me like this: “If you faceplant into a pile of shit, would you rather wipe your face with a dry paper, or use water for cleaning”
I own a BioBidet 2000. My friend Brian has one at his house and he convinced me to just try it. I did. And then I ordered one for myself before I left the bathroom.
Water coming from the nastiest thing in the building in contact with the part of my skin that’s got a low barrier to things passing through it? Get fucked.
I’m less worried about whatever diseases I may already have and more worried about those coming from others. You can have butthole splash time all you want. If you’re toilet is entirely private, maybe that’s even good. I’m not doing it.
Are you just fucking stupid? All water in the building comes from the same fucking place, the water in the toilet and the kitchen sink are the same until they fester.
Is this like a mental locational thing? There is no way the unsanitary water from the toilet bowl can back feed into the water line. They are isolated mechanically via the tank float and by gravity because water can’t travel back up into the tank from the bowl. The bidet and toilet fill valve is piped into the same water line the hand sink is you use to rinse your mouth after brushing your teeth.
It’s like having a second toilet seat. Takes more room.
Not from the US and live in a condo, so I’m speaking from a purely practical standpoint. My condo is not that big and having a bidet would mean that I have no place to put my washer and dryer at.
Some of them have it, but that complicates the installation. I bought one without a heater ages ago, thinking I’d hate it. I actually hardly notice the cold water. Your butthole isn’t great at sensing hot vs cold.
My butthole is pretty good at sensing temperature. During the winter I have to try and use the bidet fast with the room temp water before the cold outside water gets to my turd cutter.
sorry this is gross:

American with bidet for 2.5 yrs. I hate shitting anywhere else now. Need a shower to get a new ass. Day is ruined.
pro tip: get a mobile one. Its basically just a plastic bottle with a nozzle screwed on. Some even come with little travel bags.
Pro tip: Those are called douches, pretty sweet huh?
Installed one for my Filipina wife. Never used it myself. I have shit on that pot for months, still forget it’s there. Old habits die hard.
Dude. Do it. Go. Right now. Don’t even need to drop heat. Just go freshen up.
Yeah I gave it a go. Not a fan. Took a lot of drying and I’m not very messy.
I love how you’re being downvoted for having a personal opinion that harms no one but dares to go against the circlejerk.
Because dry wiping doesn’t actually clean your ass, it just picks up most of the shit and smears the rest into you.

they’re afraid they’ll enjoy it…

It’s not just Lemmy, the sentiment is on Reddit and such as well.
This is also gross. There’s a lot of men in the US that thinks touching there ass is gay so they never clean them.
So they don’t even jerk off?
Surely that’s an urban legend, like truck nutz and decent beer.

I think wet wipe would be best, and it’s my favorite option.
Can’t safely flush them though, no matter how “flushable” they claim to be
Bath tub. With soap. My SO washes his dick every time he pees and his ass every time he shits. After he wipes.
Ok that’s too far. You don’t need to get into the bath just because you pissed wtf.
People don’t wash their ASS after they SHIT??
Sorry let me just wash my ass in the public sink when I gotta take a shit and I’m not home?

I used them while visiting Europe. They made my ass incredibly itchy. I’m good with the paper and washing my hands.
How does water make your butt itchy?
He was applying the water with a dildo 😞
Ahh yes, deep cleaning.
Like someone at the bar whose seat is too far from the counter, he was trying to push his stool in

Motherfucker, you just shat out of your delicate asshole. Tap water ain’t gonna hurt it.

There is nothing more hygenic than a bidet
Yeah bruh, it’s fine until it’s at the toilet. Then it’s not fine. Get over yourself.
Do you… Do you think that the water in the bowl is what gets sprayed on your ass?
Obviously not.

the bidet is an attachment to your toilet, not a separate thing
That’s not really traditionally true. Modern ones are integrated into the toilet seat, but they used to be a standalone fixture.
Yes, I was thinking about the old designs, haven’t brushed up on new designs.
Sure, in that case, I would consider it, why not.
Oh… well, it was a sparate thing back in the day, haven’t looked up new designs.

I suppose there’s also a mini electrical boiler in there somewhere, so the water’s not cold when it hits my ass.
Cool though, will look into this, seems like a nice soltion, toilet paper is getting more and more expensive.
Correct!
