Serious question: you use it instead of wiping, not in addition to? I have a hard time imagining the bidet would be more sanitary without the use of mechanical force (wiping) and/or soap. Is it really just a jet of water that is supposed to remove any residue, regardless of consistency?
sounds like I can do the same with an extended showerhead massager which is what I do at my apartment - then I don’t have to worry about using TP for it even. And my asshole is actually clean after.
Yeah, I feel like I get this done in the shower just fine without needing to buy extra equipment and I don’t have to worry about getting a UTI if I don’t get the aim right apparently.
The water jet is the mechanical force. But unlike wiping, it doesn’t smear the shit all over your ass hair and rub it into your skin pores. It just liquifies it so that it gets rinsed away.
I use it in addition to. My culture has shower style bidets and I have no idea how “normal” bidets are supposed to work without getting your hands in there
My toto, you don’t need to wipe at all. Heated seat, multiple nozzles, heated water, dryer built in. Powerful enough to give you a full clean, it even oscillates to get better coverage.
My grandparents got one after going to Hawaii, where they are prevalent. Then I got one during the pandemic. Then my family bought two after trying mine. Then my relatives all got at least one. It’s Japan’s gift to the world, haha. I feel bummed out whenever I have to go somewhere without it, as you can never get as clean with toilet paper.
The recent articles about all TP being treated with PFAS to make them dissolve faster in water makes me even happier to use a bidet.
im italian/french born and raised with bidet. the bidet is after your regular business. you still use TP because you dont want chunks of shit in your bidet. thats basically a sink, just lower. you clean your hands in it you dont drop shit in it.

You wipe too. Just- much less. Bidet cleans all of the shit away, toilet paper wipes off the excess water.

That’s exactly how many bidets are designed too. Essentially, a hand-held shower-head.
Mine is built into the toilet (or, well, is permanently mounted to it). Just twice the knob, and automatic water where it needs to go.

Assuming you shower after every poop!
well obviously I can’t do that in a public restroom but outside of that - yeah I’ve got it covered with using a shower head.
