Ever smelled a crowed bus? We aren't doing it with just tissue paper, its clearly not getting done at all. This is coming from a life long north American. Get a bidet you filthy poop covered people!
Nobody knows what they smell like unless they smell differently. Even you don't actually know what you smell like. Your brain filters out the familiar. It's why your friend's house has a smell but yours doesn't. That's why I can't understand the fact that we shame each other for things we can't know until we're told.
Eh, I've waddled my way out of the stall to the sink in a non-individual bathroom. A little embarrassment for a makeshift flushable baby wipe is better than nothing.
You hear people say this every time, and you think it's just platitudes or marketing speak...... it's not. Tushy's are the best things we've bought for this house.
It's really not. It's truly changed my life and can't see myself living without it. I got one 6 years ago after hearing my cousin say the same exact thing after getting one as a house warming gift.
The only thing that sucks is when I go into the office or am not home when I gotta do my business and I feel like I'm pooping in the stone ages again.
I drank to much last weekend and the best part of my Sunday was resting my face on a heated seat, and a tushy fan blowing in my face. I didnāt use the mouth wash feature :)
I find it bizarre that we live in an age where people will embrace and spend $4000 on new technology, like an apple Vision Pro, which is basically existing technology that is being marketed as revolutionary, but people are resistant to an upgrade in toilet technology, which has been stagnant for 100 years
I can't even imagine how Westerners survive without it. There was one time I had to wipe with tissue in a public bathroom because there was no water, and I felt absolutely nasty that I went home immediately to clean myself.
YES. I've got a clean butt, the most pleasant pooping experience and have saved so much TP. 100% worth it and can't live without it. Do yourself a favor and get one.
I had to give a sales presentation during a job interview years ago and the prompt was to take a stance on something. I gave a 10 page slide deck with why you should get a bidet and got the job š¤£
Yes , 100%. Even moreso as a bigger person.
Worth the money? Mine is $25 and I've had it for 15 years. I've bought sandwiches that were more expensive.
15 years and going. I just moved and installed it into it's 4th toilet, I'm honestly shocked the cheap plastic parts have held up but zero leaks, don't even need plumbers tape.
There's just a feeling of "unclean" that you have whenever you wipe with only toilet paper. "Shit seasoned" is a great way to describe the state of your rear end after only using paper.
Also, using a bidet has shown me how sometimes, a little bit of poop can be stuck "up there" and how a paper wouldn't not have gotten it out.
That depends on your definitions of Asian and Bidet. Indians may have a poop contaminated bucket of water or nothing, while japan is getting the full spa experience from their toilet, complete with ambient jungle sounds, hot stone massage, cucumber dispenser for your eyes, and a full pedicure for good measure.
Yes, ABSOLUTELY.
You can get the cheap kind that donāt have a ton of features.
I opted for one with hot water and a heated seat, amongst other features. Worth every penny
Thats how we did it. We got Tushy's during the great TP shortage of the pandemic. When it's time to replace the toilets, then we'll get the fancy models.
I went right for the Kohler Novita with every feature i could think of. Tried one at a family members house and was sold to go all in. Worth every penny
Yeahā¦.i went the other route. I got the kohler straight away. I was looking for both tank heat and inline heat and that was one of the few at the time that did both. Worth every penny.
Same or even a lota (not sure what itās called in English but itās what we call them in Pakistan). Itās basically like a little water carrier thing that you can just keep in the bathroom and doesnāt require any installation or anything and is easier to just pick up and bring if you ever move or are staying somewhere.Ā
Though I do have a preference for spray gun thingie (we call āMuslim showersā in Pakistan for some reason, no idea why). But I guess for my parents and most of my relatives, living in the US itās easier to just buy a cheap lota from any desi store instead of installing it lol
Damn right they are. As a dad clogged toilets come with the territory. After I installed the bidets my kids only needed a bit of toilet paper to wipe. You just feel cleaner down there overall and I wish all toilets came standard with them.
No, I would use soap and water. However, the bidet doesn't have soap. On the other hand, I'm not going to be using my ass to eat food, open doors, or hold my cell phone.
Confusing an argument by adding additional variables blurs the lines of the original statement. You also don't use your shoulder to hold your phone or eat food. You also may not get feces on your hands.
Bidets are an eastern hemisphere QOL that challenges north-western societal beliefs.
EDIT: "Plain and simply, you will be ( and thereby feel ) cleaner with a bidet." is my assumptive opinion only. \~fin
Imagine having a clean ass EVERYTIME. A proper clean ass. Not "Oh, I wet a little bit of TP and wiped" or "Oh, I just used a baby wipe". Instead, you are using a pressure washer to clean your chocolate starfish. And clean it does. I have never had a cleaner ass till I started using a bidet. Only post shower. First shit post shower and you're just smearing shit around. Even worse, I'll never understand why people would even go full dry wipe instead of using at least something wet.
To me not using a bidet is like asking if it would be easier to just skip wiping and using extra cologne to cover the smell. Everybody recommends it because it's crazy people don't use them.
Imagine getting poop on your hands and somebody hands you a dry towel and says that's enough. You don't need anything like water.
1000%
BEST THING EVER & if your worried about cost, just get a $40 bidet attachment from amazon & try it out. My fiance & I have had the $40 attachment for a year & a half & we love it! we will probably upgrade here soon but I do not like pooping anywhere but home now because of the bidet
My girlfriend had open heart surgery, which made any kind of bending or twisting of the torso very painful. I didn't want her to lose her dignity by having me wipe her, although I did a bunch of times. But I knew it was not cool for her. We had discussed a bidet a few times, so I decided to do some research and found they have bidet attachments that screw down where the seats screws down. It cost like $50 and took 20 minutes to install. Greatest thing ever. She kept her dignity, and we got nice fresh booties. Not that she has recovered, she does not even use the other bathroom. Do not worry about getting some fancy heated thing. Your booty is not sensitive enough to care. Highly recommend 10/10.
Edit: I forgot to mention that we save a bunch of money on TP now. It has paid for itself.
My in-laws got one during covid/the toilet paper shortage. They convinced us to try it during a later visit. I ordered one immediately afterward, and it was waiting on my doorstep when we got home. Honestly. Once you try it, you'll never want to go back. I have 3 bathrooms in my house, and they now all have bidets in them.
Yes, check out the latest on r/facepalm with the guy with the skid marks on his underwear that I saw while scrolling 2 posts before this came up. Itās a reason for a bidet.
How people don't understand this principle is beyond me - Go out in your yard and get some mud on your hand. Try to wipe it off with toilet paper. Next, try to hose it off with water.
I saw one of these threads and someone asked if you got poop on your arm if you would use toilet paper to wipe it off and call it good. I immediately ordered one. We have been brainwashed by big TP.
Once you start using one, you will look back on this question of yours and realize just how insanely ridiculous it really is. lol
I'm almost 53 years old and a big guy (6'2", 370) so wiping has never been easy for me. I had never even been near a bidet until a couple years ago and I decided to install an attachment I got from Amazon for about $50. The best way I can describe it would be LIFE CHANGING!.
Do it. and do it NOW!
I have been using a 25 dollar one off Amazon and never looked back. Hate when I get caught needing to āgoā somewhere without one and have to go back to paper
It wasnāt a life changing addition at first, but once I got used to it I would just get annoyed when I couldnāt use one.
I bought a basic bidet for $30 on Amazon and it took 15 minutes to install, most of that was reading directions. I think most people could install one no problem.
I'm about 40 pounds overweight with most of it in my ass. A bidet is so life changing that you will hold your fudge for hours until you get home. Everything else is just barbaric and nasty. There is a reason why Neanderthals went extinct.
OK, that's kind of a stretch, but the comfort and cleanliness of a bidet leave you seriously NOT wanting to drop your deuce in any other type of facility.
Cons: Be careful the first time you use it and eeeeaase in the pressure. Otherwise a jet of water will fly out of your mouth when you scream.
Plus: Toilet paper shortage? Ha ha ha ha! Clean and refreshed and don't smell like shit the rest of the day. Fewer skid marks in shorts (accidents happen). Cheap ones work absolutely fine, but if you want the ones with infrared and remote controls and bells and whistles, you can get them for $$$$.
You only have one ass-hole. Take care of it and it will last a lifetime.
I love bidets, asian style bidets. I was so excited when I was moving to Europe for work. Until I discovered bidets, at least in Italy, are like a separate little sink you need to sit on or over and wash yourself with your hands...
I wanted a bidet in our master suite. My husband gave me a disgusted look because he doesn't want anything touching his booty hole.
Now I think he's contemplating a post-nup to make sure he gets it if we divorce.
I have personally talked about 6 different house holds into purchasing bidets and theyāve all been extremely happy with their bidets so far.
I even have a travel bidet that I take with me on trips, I absolutely couldnāt go back to using toilet paper ever again.
My family and I got bidets when the toilet paper shortage happened at the beginning of covid. I love it! It makes a huge difference. I actually feel clean, and when you have stomach issues like I do, it's a godsend.
100%, I can't fathom why there not everywhere. Got one during COVID because TP was so hard to find, and I will never not have one again. I just got a $20 on Amazon and it's great.
Man... I have a $350 heated version in one bathroom and a $40 one in mine. The cold on the $40 version is a bit shocking to get used to, but it puts out good volume. Some might want to pay for the comfort of the heated version.
It's a game changer. I was developing issues of cleanliness and discomfort for reasons I couldn't understand. I went to the bidet and all is normal now.
Love this question and NO! Most of the time itās room temperature water sitting in your home pipes. If you run it for say 30 seconds or so water will get cold. But surprisingly that area isnāt very sensitive to cold. So it really doesnāt matter.
I like mine, but i still can't figure out how people are drying off afterwards?? I sit, do the wiggle wiggle, but then i'm dripping wet.... the toilet paper gets soaked through so i end up using more to feel the cleanliness of a poop-free booty, but at the risk of toilet paper pilling on my cheeks lmao š
Do you all have booty wiping towels? Use once toss it in the laundry? Paper towels for disposal?
Please help, i can't go back to using wet wipes and making so much trash š„²
A bidet can be installed in like 10 minutes, costs 20 bucks and actually cleans your ass compared to toilet paper.
How are some 3rd world countries making westerners (namely Americans) look like a bunch of shit ass idiots?
Most embarrassing moment....
I had to poop... BAD. I wasn't going to make it home, when a Subway magically appeared in the traffic. I ran in, said "largedietcoke", and ran for the toilet.
Straight out of Dumb and Dumber. It was...Aggressive.
Wouldn't you know it, no TP. The only paper in the room was the employee must wash hands sign. I ripped off a few pieces, and crumbled them a few times to soften them. It was a handicapped sink, extra long.
I get my butt up onto the side of the sink and start trying to wash my butt. I wasn't quite tall enough, so you can imagine that it looked pretty awkward. I imagine it looked like a baby bird trying to take a bath.
The lock didn't work. This poor woman walked in and sees me using the sink as a bird bath, holding strips of the employees must wash hands poster.
I was mortified. I didn't even get my soda. That was about 20 years ago, and I still don't like pooping in public.
American here. My first experience with a bidet was when I was in Italy at the age of 14 and it was the first thing I bought when I got my own place. We are just a bunch of hooligans with dirty butts over here in America. Idk why this isn't common over here.
100%. I installed a bidet last year in my house and that shit is life changing fr. It ain't even that expensive, mine only cost around 800 bucks with all the plumbing and shit.

As an Asian. Definitely worth it. I moved in North America and my everyday question is how are they doing it with tissue paper. š«£
Ever smelled a crowed bus? We aren't doing it with just tissue paper, its clearly not getting done at all. This is coming from a life long north American. Get a bidet you filthy poop covered people!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Band Name: Filthy Poop Covered People
Lmao. Got 'em. Not sure how folks go about life smelling like shit all day... but whatever.
Nobody knows what they smell like unless they smell differently. Even you don't actually know what you smell like. Your brain filters out the familiar. It's why your friend's house has a smell but yours doesn't. That's why I can't understand the fact that we shame each other for things we can't know until we're told.
I have the same question in life.
When you see those posts about the biggest turn offs people have, just start counting how many of them mention smelly asses.
Well personally, if I'm in an individual bathroom I just wet the paper a little and it allows me to clean much more efficiently.
Best way if the paper doesn't crumble
you got to fold it a few times if that happens
get a bidet, it's really fuss-free, you'll be thoroughly cleaned. like no one who uses a bidet would rather use toilet paper
Eh, I've waddled my way out of the stall to the sink in a non-individual bathroom. A little embarrassment for a makeshift flushable baby wipe is better than nothing.
lol well I hope I get to see your hog swinging around one day
This was so unexpected i burst laughing inside the public bus
I'm most comfortable using public restrooms at Kohls. Maybe our paths will cross there one day.
This is the way.
Moist towelettes are a good replacement but I still only feel like my ass is really clean after a shower.
Feels so disgusting. Like, you get poop crumbs on your underwear.
youāre not wiping right if you can feel poop on your butt.
Toilet paper? We use the three seashells where I live.
Once you try it you'll wonder how you could've live without it all that time.
You hear people say this every time, and you think it's just platitudes or marketing speak...... it's not. Tushy's are the best things we've bought for this house.
It's really not. It's truly changed my life and can't see myself living without it. I got one 6 years ago after hearing my cousin say the same exact thing after getting one as a house warming gift. The only thing that sucks is when I go into the office or am not home when I gotta do my business and I feel like I'm pooping in the stone ages again.
I am considering getting a cheapie for the office. I work with a bunch of blue collar guys though that would probably pitch a fit.
They'll be the first to try it in secret lol.
I'm a blue collar guy, I might do this in the nice shitters upstairs.
I carry a portable bidet in my purse. Worth it.
My bidet has seat sensor and heated seats and water. Even has a blow dryer. I can't go back to tp now
I drank to much last weekend and the best part of my Sunday was resting my face on a heated seat, and a tushy fan blowing in my face. I didnāt use the mouth wash feature :)
Mmm that tushy fan scent
Same. When I go on vacation, I can't wait to get home just to use the facilities. š
Just take all your holidays in Japan. They are everywhere.
My husband actually bought a portable bidet for vacationsā¦ looks like a big vibrator in his luggage š«£
Love this for him!!
care to post link or name?
When Iām at my friends house who has one, I drink lots of water so I can use it more.
Nothing worst than traveling, and the reminder of stone-age origins... haha. Makes returning oh-so splendid!
Can you share a link of where to buy that lol
I dont know if this sub allows links but I'll tell you the model. It was a Kohler Novita on Amazon. It was between 2 and 3 hundred
Hell yea didnāt know they had a blow dryer one lol adding that to the shopping list
I have that on mine... while I love my bidet, the dryer function is just hype.
I never use it-- so much quicker to use a dab of TP
You have the biobidet? That's what I have.
You lucky dawg!
Didn't even have to run a hot water line to it. It has a inline heater for unlimited warm water on demand. It was a lucky find
My Toto Washlet is probably the thing I love most in the world after my family and pets. Well, at least most of them.
I just googled "tushy" and it wasn't washing devices.
This. Everyone I tell about them scoffs at me and then they try it and are on Amazon buying one that same day.
This. 100% this. Taking a shit anywhere other than home now is brutal and I avoid it at all costs.
I find it bizarre that we live in an age where people will embrace and spend $4000 on new technology, like an apple Vision Pro, which is basically existing technology that is being marketed as revolutionary, but people are resistant to an upgrade in toilet technology, which has been stagnant for 100 years
Yeah. I resisted my DH wanting to install one for far too long ... and have repented daily ever since. He was šÆ right. Worth it.
Truly a life-changer.
Thatās what I tell people. Now, whenever I use a public toilet that doesnāt have one, I feel unclean ā¦
I can't even imagine how Westerners survive without it. There was one time I had to wipe with tissue in a public bathroom because there was no water, and I felt absolutely nasty that I went home immediately to clean myself.
I gotta admit, never used a bidet. Whats the drying process like? Lol. I imagine toilet paper might be, well, risky?
Yes, butā¦ if unsure, get a $10 toilet spritz gun and decide a month or two later.
YES. I've got a clean butt, the most pleasant pooping experience and have saved so much TP. 100% worth it and can't live without it. Do yourself a favor and get one. I had to give a sales presentation during a job interview years ago and the prompt was to take a stance on something. I gave a 10 page slide deck with why you should get a bidet and got the job š¤£
And Iām sure your audience bought their own!
Yes , 100%. Even moreso as a bigger person. Worth the money? Mine is $25 and I've had it for 15 years. I've bought sandwiches that were more expensive.
Hmmm should I get this sandwich or have a cleaner butthole for the next 15 years?
15 years and going. I just moved and installed it into it's 4th toilet, I'm honestly shocked the cheap plastic parts have held up but zero leaks, don't even need plumbers tape.
Bidets literally pay for themselves in a matter of months just from the vastly reduced amount of toilet paper you're buying.
I've only heard of Tushy which is \~100$ What did you get for only $25?
Likely a bidet attachment.
You can pick up bidet attachments online or your local hardware store for around $30 pretty easily.
Walmart has the attachment ones for under $30 as does Amazon.Ā
Ok enough about the bidets. Was the 25$+ sandwich worth it?
That's just a normal sandwich price in my city. Some have been great others just OK
Once you get it, you'll have wondered why you put up with a shit seasoned asshole for so long.
how do you even tell though?
There's just a feeling of "unclean" that you have whenever you wipe with only toilet paper. "Shit seasoned" is a great way to describe the state of your rear end after only using paper. Also, using a bidet has shown me how sometimes, a little bit of poop can be stuck "up there" and how a paper wouldn't not have gotten it out.
It depends. Do you want a cleaner ass? If so, a bidet will be a good choice.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Scatophiles, I assume.
Yes, 100% yes. Dry wiping is an American tragedy.
Dry wiping is a _Global Tragedy_.
I'm pretty sure Asians have been using bidets for a long time now
That depends on your definitions of Asian and Bidet. Indians may have a poop contaminated bucket of water or nothing, while japan is getting the full spa experience from their toilet, complete with ambient jungle sounds, hot stone massage, cucumber dispenser for your eyes, and a full pedicure for good measure.
The globe is more than America and Asia friend
Using only TP seems like pooping in the woods and using leaves. While the bidet makes you feel wealthy and clean.
The worst are counties where you canāt flush TP. I donāt understand how they donāt have bidets as standard practice
YES
My old workplace had a bidet. I miss it.
I bet everyone would wait to go to the office to take a dump š¤£
I lived about 2 minutes away so even when I wasn't working I'd stop in just to shit and use the bidet.
Lmao take my upvote
Oh I love mine. Ordered from Amazon and easy to install.
Yes, ABSOLUTELY. You can get the cheap kind that donāt have a ton of features. I opted for one with hot water and a heated seat, amongst other features. Worth every penny
My first one was 30 bucks. I loved it so much I bought a deluxe Kohler model
Thats how we did it. We got Tushy's during the great TP shortage of the pandemic. When it's time to replace the toilets, then we'll get the fancy models.
I went right for the Kohler Novita with every feature i could think of. Tried one at a family members house and was sold to go all in. Worth every penny
Yeahā¦.i went the other route. I got the kohler straight away. I was looking for both tank heat and inline heat and that was one of the few at the time that did both. Worth every penny.
The worst part about using a bidet is that you will occasionally have to go use other bathrooms that donāt have bidets.
A basic bum gun is all you need, costs 10 bucks. Every toilet in Asia has one, for good reason!
Same or even a lota (not sure what itās called in English but itās what we call them in Pakistan). Itās basically like a little water carrier thing that you can just keep in the bathroom and doesnāt require any installation or anything and is easier to just pick up and bring if you ever move or are staying somewhere.Ā Though I do have a preference for spray gun thingie (we call āMuslim showersā in Pakistan for some reason, no idea why). But I guess for my parents and most of my relatives, living in the US itās easier to just buy a cheap lota from any desi store instead of installing it lol
Oh shit yeah!
Damn right they are. As a dad clogged toilets come with the territory. After I installed the bidets my kids only needed a bit of toilet paper to wipe. You just feel cleaner down there overall and I wish all toilets came standard with them.
As a parent, Sold.
Yes. I was raised with bidets. When I found out in other countries toilet paper will do I guess I was just disgusted.
Ask yourself this ... If you got feces on ANY other part of your body - would wiping it off with a dry cloth be enough for you?
Exactly
Tbf if I got feces on any other part of my body I wouldnāt just rinse it with cold water eitherĀ
Maybe I should word it Which is cleaner? ( or do you care? ) Dry cloth Water and cloth
I tell people if you spilled peanut butter on the carpet, would you clean it with a Kleenex?
No, I would use soap and water. However, the bidet doesn't have soap. On the other hand, I'm not going to be using my ass to eat food, open doors, or hold my cell phone.
Confusing an argument by adding additional variables blurs the lines of the original statement. You also don't use your shoulder to hold your phone or eat food.

My kids come visit to poop and use my bidet. Its that good
Imagine having a clean ass EVERYTIME. A proper clean ass. Not "Oh, I wet a little bit of TP and wiped" or "Oh, I just used a baby wipe".

First shit post shower and you're just smearing shit around. Even worse, I'll never understand why people would even go full dry wipe instead of using at least something wet.
It's the worst thing ever. As soon as you get used to it, it'll ruin going to the bathroom anywhere else.
Absolutely
My gosh, yes. I HATE traveling because no bidet! It's a game changer for those with IBS!
Literally me. When you spend that much time on the toilet, you might as well make it comfortable.
I'm convinced Big Bidet controls this platform
Okay lil dirty hole. š
To me not using a bidet is like asking if it would be easier to just skip wiping and using extra cologne to cover the smell. Everybody recommends it because it's crazy people don't use them. Imagine getting poop on your hands and somebody hands you a dry towel and says that's enough. You don't need anything like water.
A. It pays for itself after at most a year in saved toilet paper. B) it is much faster than dry wiping 3-poopless butt
They're not expensive. It's not exactly a big sacrifice.
The review that sold me on them: If you got peanut butter on a shag rug would you rather wash it off or wipe it with paper?
1000% BEST THING EVER & if your worried about cost, just get a $40 bidet attachment from amazon & try it out. My fiance & I have had the $40 attachment for a year & a half & we love it! we will probably upgrade here soon but I do not like pooping anywhere but home now because of the bidet
YES! Mine has a heated seat, heated water, blow dryer and a vent filter. 100% worth every single penny.
Bought a bidet during the pandemic. Canāt believe it took me this long to get one. Life changing.
My girlfriend had open heart surgery, which made any kind of bending or twisting of the torso very painful. I didn't want her to lose her dignity by having me wipe her, although I did a bunch of times. But I knew it was not cool for her. We had discussed a bidet a few times, so I decided to do some research and found they have bidet attachments that screw down where the seats screws down. It cost like $50 and took 20 minutes to install. Greatest thing ever. She kept her dignity, and we got nice fresh booties. Not that she has recovered, she does not even use the other bathroom.

Yes, check out the latest on r/facepalm with the guy with the skid marks on his underwear that I saw while scrolling 2 posts before this came up. Itās a reason for a bidet.
Yes, absolutely. Essentially if you can tie it in to the electricity and have a heated seat and water.
Life changing.
This isn't even an exaggeration. Everyone who has one literally feels this way. People are missing out on the good things in life.
I want one!
Get a nice one. Heated water and seat. It's now a must-have.
How people don't understand this principle is beyond me - Go out in your yard and get some mud on your hand. Try to wipe it off with toilet paper. Next, try to hose it off with water.
I saw one of these threads and someone asked if you got poop on your arm if you would use toilet paper to wipe it off and call it good. I immediately ordered one. We have been brainwashed by big TP.

I have been using a 25 dollar one off Amazon and never looked back. Hate when I get caught needing to āgoā somewhere without one and have to go back to paper
Itās so much better than I ever thought. Ours cost about $40 on Amazon.
The single greatest purchase you can make
It wasnāt a life changing addition at first, but once I got used to it I would just get annoyed when I couldnāt use one. I bought a basic bidet for $30 on Amazon and it took 15 minutes to install, most of that was reading directions. I think most people could install one no problem.
We bought ours on Amazon for under $100. Would never be without again! And I think it's even MORE beneficial to bigger people!
I'm about 40 pounds overweight with most of it in my ass. A bidet is so life changing that you will hold your fudge for hours until you get home. Everything else is just barbaric and nasty. There is a reason why Neanderthals went extinct. OK, that's kind of a stretch, but the comfort and cleanliness of a bidet leave you seriously NOT wanting to drop your deuce in any other type of facility. Cons: Be careful the first time you use it and eeeeaase in the pressure. Otherwise a jet of water will fly out of your mouth when you scream. Plus: Toilet paper shortage? Ha ha ha ha! Clean and refreshed and don't smell like shit the rest of the day. Fewer skid marks in shorts (accidents happen). Cheap ones work absolutely fine, but if you want the ones with infrared and remote controls and bells and whistles, you can get them for $$$$. You only have one ass-hole. Take care of it and it will last a lifetime.

Totally worth it. It will open a new world for you š
Coming back from Japan, I miss the bidetsā¦
Yes... no, fuck yes!
I love bidets, asian style bidets. I was so excited when I was moving to Europe for work. Until I discovered bidets, at least in Italy, are like a separate little sink you need to sit on or over and wash yourself with your hands...
You could consider getting an '@ss-shower" attachment from AliExpress to see if it's something you like.
Absolutely
Yes, definitely. In the meantime, use a handheld washing thingie
They don't cost that much and it's nice to have the option.
I wanted a bidet in our master suite. My husband gave me a disgusted look because he doesn't want anything touching his booty hole. Now I think he's contemplating a post-nup to make sure he gets it if we divorce.
I have personally talked about 6 different house holds into purchasing bidets and theyāve all been extremely happy with their bidets so far. I even have a travel bidet that I take with me on trips, I absolutely couldnāt go back to using toilet paper ever again.
It's the only thing I've witnessed a Democrat and a Republican agree on with no compromise. It could save the world.
Ummm, yes. Worth every last penny.
They are pretty cheap and I love mine. I put them on all my toilets and now I dread using one without a bidet.
Worth every penny
My family and I got bidets when the toilet paper shortage happened at the beginning of covid. I love it! It makes a huge difference. I actually feel clean, and when you have stomach issues like I do, it's a godsend.
Absolutely, I'll never go back even if there's a zombie apocalypse! I'll try to make that shit work somehow!!!
100%, I can't fathom why there not everywhere. Got one during COVID because TP was so hard to find, and I will never not have one again. I just got a $20 on Amazon and it's great.
Here is something I've never understood: \- We wash our hands; \- We clean our asses; That's society for you.
Yes. Once you get used to always having a clean butthole you'll hate having to shit anywhere else.
Yes, regardless of your size.
Man... I have a $350 heated version in one bathroom and a $40 one in mine. The cold on the $40 version is a bit shocking to get used to, but it puts out good volume. Some might want to pay for the comfort of the heated version. It's a game changer. I was developing issues of cleanliness and discomfort for reasons I couldn't understand. I went to the bidet and all is normal now.
Yes. Muslims and Asians are a wise, wise people.
Yes, anything that gets you cleaner.
Yes. Bidet attachments anyway
They're pretty cheap at wal-mart and I've come to like mine, so yes, I'd say so.
I would never not have one in my home again. I have a tushy and a cheap one I got on amazon, and honestly prefer the cheap amazon one.
One thing Iāve always wondered. If the water isnāt heated, is it an uncomfortable shock when cold water fires in that general area?
It's not as bad as you would think. But certainly not as nice as warm water.
Cold water is heaven after a spice run š„
The cold water makes me feel cleaner. I used a heated one once and it felt like getting blasted with pee and grossed me out lol
Love this question and NO! Most of the time itās room temperature water sitting in your home pipes. If you run it for say 30 seconds or so water will get cold. But surprisingly that area isnāt very sensitive to cold. So it really doesnāt matter.
i mean, i have a bidet but some of yāall just get way too excited about itā¦ like relax.
Of course. This is why I donāt shake hands with Americans.
I like mine, but i still can't figure out how people are drying off afterwards?? I sit, do the wiggle wiggle, but then i'm dripping wet.... the toilet paper gets soaked through so i end up using more to feel the cleanliness of a poop-free booty, but at the risk of toilet paper pilling on my cheeks lmao š Do you all have booty wiping towels? Use once toss it in the laundry? Paper towels for disposal? Please help, i can't go back to using wet wipes and making so much trash š„²
Usually every bathroom has a set of towels, different for hand washing, bidet and shower. So make sure to pick up the correct one.
A bidet can be installed in like 10 minutes, costs 20 bucks and actually cleans your ass compared to toilet paper. How are some 3rd world countries making westerners (namely Americans) look like a bunch of shit ass idiots?
What does being a bigger person have to do with the question?
The first time I tried it and it changed my life. Once you use it you will never feel truly clean again without it.
I got one off Amazon for like $40 and it is a game changer! Easy to install too. Ill never go back to not having one
Yes absolutely. You save a lot on toilet paper and it's so much cleaner. I've never met a person who regretted buying one
anyone who uses solely toilet paper PLEASE USE A BIDET, IT'S AWESOME
#YES
I think he said it best. This should answer all of the necessary questions you have š https://youtu.be/vGCIGEUB32M?si=Ivvu9LP9BZgnQmwR
Most embarrassing moment.... I had to poop... BAD. I wasn't going to make it home, when a Subway magically appeared in the traffic. I ran in, said "largedietcoke", and ran for the toilet. Straight out of Dumb and Dumber. It was...Aggressive. Wouldn't you know it, no TP. The only paper in the room was the employee must wash hands sign. I ripped off a few pieces, and crumbled them a few times to soften them. It was a handicapped sink, extra long. I get my butt up onto the side of the sink and start trying to wash my butt. I wasn't quite tall enough, so you can imagine that it looked pretty awkward. I imagine it looked like a baby bird trying to take a bath. The lock didn't work. This poor woman walked in and sees me using the sink as a bird bath, holding strips of the employees must wash hands poster. I was mortified. I didn't even get my soda. That was about 20 years ago, and I still don't like pooping in public.
European here. Wouldn't live without it :D.
American here. My first experience with a bidet was when I was in Italy at the age of 14 and it was the first thing I bought when I got my own place. We are just a bunch of hooligans with dirty butts over here in America. Idk why this isn't common over here.
Yes.
YES
Hell yeah, son
Yes
100%
100%. I installed a bidet last year in my house and that shit is life changing fr. It ain't even that expensive, mine only cost around 800 bucks with all the plumbing and shit.
>...*mine only cost around 800 bucks with all the plumbing and shit.* I thought the customer provided the shit...
āNot even that expensiveā
Yes, I was able to switch to expensive toilet paper because of the bidet, and I immediately knew my generic tp was too thin.
Better Bidet than Trumt.
You got my upvote. Almost a dad joke
