Not using a bidet.

- nlh 4y ago+1000000 I used to think bidets were weird European things. Now I know that wiping your dry poopy butt with paper is a weird American thing :) Bidets for life!
- bckr 4y agoA weird American thing that caught on because bidets were considered “sinful”!
- intrasight 4y agoMy current toilet has a sink besides it. Wet TP does equivalent. But in my new house, the sink is not within reaching distance. I am considering an add-on.
- wingerlang 4y agoWet TP is by no means equivalent to a bidet (or spray-hose-thingy, as we have where I live). It is worlds better than dry TP, still.
- alainchabat 4y agowhich $50 one do you recommend?
- LVB 4y agoHaven't looked in a long time, but I've had this one for almost 10 years with no issues: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A0RHSJO https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A0RHSJO (only $35).
- qorrect 4y ago$34. I've recently switched to the handheld ones because the seat attachments require you to shift your butt around to catch the stream. Friends seem to be more weirded out by this one though. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076G9M9JG/ https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076G9M9JG/
- gardenhedge 4y agoHow do you install that though?
- pancrufty 4y agoAll hail the bidet. Even the European-style bidet is kind of an inconvenient waste because you're still supposed to use plenty of paper before moving onto it. In Asia you use toilet paper only to dry. The Japanese one is nice but the one common across South East Asia is the best because it doubles as a bowl cleaner: No need for a toilet brush.
