When people think a bidet is stupid, I always ask: If you had poop on your arm, would you clean it with water or just wipe it with a dry towel and call it a day?
Not to mention it’s less irritating for ur bum
lick it off like a cat
If only
This question shows that people can have differing standards of cleanliness and it’s OK. Because the answer is “would you spray your arm with water only or would you use soap?” Bidets don’t use soap, so with either bidet or paper you can still feel dirty until a shower, it’s just what level of dirty you’re willing to accept.
Hey, fellow Spuds fan. I have a similar one but it’s: "If you smeared peanut butter on the outside of a watermelon but wiped it off with dry toilet paper, wouldn’t you expect it to still smell like peanut butter?
Honestly, I feel like they’re both gonna smell like peanut butter about the same
Especially if you do that with a potato instead of a watermelon
Certainly the one you’ve sprayed after wiping would smell less like peanut butter though? The first thing we do when cleaning anything seriously is get the wiper/scrubber/sponge/paper towel wet, with either water or cleaning solutions.
The moral of the story is y’all need to wash your asses however it gets done.
I mean if your argument is that things will be cleaner if you wash them twice (once with paper and once with water), compared to washing it once, then the answer is obviously yes washing twice will make things cleaner than washing them once.
I do agree that alternating between scrubbing (paper) and rinsing (bidet) will probably get you cleaner - but based on the comments I see, that’s not what bidet users are actually doing.
But yes, folks need to wash their asses better.
And their hands too, way too many people leave public washroom without washing their hands. Wtf.No, that’s not my argument. It’s that the first thing we do when we are about to wipe down a counter (or anything else) with a rag is to get the rag wet. It’s that none of us trust a dry wiping/cleaning tool to be effective, it’s just going to smear the funk around.
No, the first things you do when you’re about to wipe a counter with a rag is to get a rag.
Sometimes you wipe with a wet cloth, occasionally you wipe with a dry cloth, but you never wipe with no cloth and just water.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think TP is better that bidets, but this sanctimonious metaphor is just so dumb that I can’t deal with it.
You haven’t understood my pretty clear language and then are calling my metaphor dumb? Wow.
You don’t wipe with no cloth and just water alone? No shit, are you going for a promotion from Captain Obvious to Major Lee Obvious?
Your “no, the first thing you do is get the rag” is about the dumbest response I can imagine and inaccurate since the situation was framed as “wipe with a rag” implying a situation where one already has the rag. You might as well have wrote “the first thing you do is put on appropriate non-skid footwear and remove any rings.”
You’re not pedantic, you’re pretending to score points by calling me out for omitting the incredibly obvious parts that really didn’t need to be said at all.
You still have to wipe though, right? Using just water to clean it off your arm would still leave a stain. You have to make contact to rub away what remains somehow.
I’ve used a few bidets and while it was fun and they did an ok job there was no soap involved and I still had to wipe. I don’t hate them, they make some sense, but a bidet is not magic.
If the pressure is right u should be able to get everything, but yeah even then you need to dry it.
You still have to wipe though, right?
Yes, of course.
Honestly I’d say wiping my arm with a bunch of paper towels is about the same as spraying it down with a garden hose. I feel like people who say otherwise have never actually tried to rinse something off their body with just water pressure and no scrubbing.
I still plan to get a bidet because it’s less irritating as you said.
Three seashells and a poop knife was good enough for my pappy and my grandpappy and his pappy before him, and it’s damn well good enough for me & my sons.
Wouldn’t recommend. I bought a Kärcher brand one some time ago, it had too much pressure. Got my butt cleaned to the bone though.
Edit: I appreciate the advice about pressure, but folks, I was joking about power washers 😆
My bidet BLASTS my bits and I love it. I’m ALWAYS bits-clean.
To the bone, you say?
Yeah… I probably should have watched some reviews before buying this.
“Dad’s awfully noisy in the toilet these days!” “It’s his new bidet! He says it cleans his arse to the bone!” “To the bone, you say?”
In finland they are adjusted by the tap so you can have appropriate temp./pressure.
I have the same, cleaned my tonsils a treat at the same time.
Such a huge difference in cleanliness when using these.
Everytime I travel I wonder how the godless savages live like this
A lot of middle eastern countries have these at hotels.
You can buy portable bidets! Been a game changer for travel
like walking on others poop/butt water is so civilized. wet wipes are the way to go.
I grew up in a Muslim country and I hate these. They are always either too strong or too weak. And they somehow always leak (no idea why).
Wet wipes ftw.
They are just bad quality then
I highly recommend the rinseworks bidet. It is designed much better than the one from the pic. You don’t have to shove your entire hand in the toilet to use it. https://rinseworks.com/
Using mine rn
Thanks. That’s a reasonable review. I hate that people claim bidets to be magic.
If you had poop on your arm, would you clean it with water or just wipe it with a dry towel and call it a day?
Would you only use water or would you also wipe it, use soap as well?
Would you rather wipe that soap off with TP or water?
If you want to use soap, you can use soap. But would you rather clean you poop smeared hand with water or just wipe with toilet paper?
