  I-is Japan okay… simultaneously being grossed out by toilet paper and it’s a coin-flip whether they use the bidet T_T

  Previously, we conducted a survey of electric bidet use among Japanese community-dwelling residents and found that 55% (2,724/4,952) of the respondents washed the anus either before or after defecation[10]. […]

  In a survey of bidet use in 575 outpatients conducted by Yano et al.[11], 349 (61%) washed the anus at every defecation and 75 (13%) did so occasionally. […]

  In a survey of college students, 34% (47/139) of the female students and 44% (43/98) of their male counterparts reported using the washing function of bidet toilets[12].

  Overall, approximately half of the population washed the anus before or after defecation.

    Brother eww.

    Also, why would I wash it before? What purpose does that even have when I’m shitting all over it literally 2 seconds later?

      You’re calling it “washing before”, some of us call it “warm water pre evacuation lubrication”. We are not the same.

      I have one of the sprayer handle bidets, and I will often rinse off my balls and taint first. That way they can dry while I take a shit.

        I actually never figured out how to use those.

    …That’s worse, gimme a country where everyone wipes with toilet paper, rather than a country where roughly half the population are walking around with shit in their trousers.

  I lived in West Africa where there was no TP at all. People used pieces of millet stalks to scrape the big bits, then wash anything else away with your left hand and water. It actually does a good job.

  TP is objectively weird and inherently the least good job of any way other than doing nothing at all. You just grew up like that and don’t know what the alternatives are and how many of them are much better.

  TP is objectively disgusting. would you use it to clean shit off any other part of your body?

  And bidets splatter you feces all over your butt cheeks. Nothing wrong with either from a hygene standpoint.
