If you feel like a freak buying moist TP at the store buy the toddler wipes instead. Everyone will assume you have a little kid.

I think a bidet would be awesome, should have added it to my 1 year house we built.

I'm a huge fan of flushable wipes. My wife got the whole family addicted to them. We're all springtime fresh down there now.

Yup, trying to get everything off with toilet paper is like trying to wipe Vasaline out of a bear rug with newspaper. Just not happening.

I always thought you couldn't flush if you had a septic system, did not know it was not good for a public sewer either. In any case we just stuff em the baby's dirty diaper and throw em in the trash.

LOL. Nice analogy, was trying to think of one myself.

What I don't get about bidets is....it seems to me that to get completely clean with just water, you'd need substantial pressure. The only bidet I've ever seen didn't seem strong enough to "scrub" you clean, which then just makes me imagine trying to clean up a soupy wet mess with crumbly TP.

I use a couple Cottonelle Flushable Wipes each BM & flush them. I do the initial cleanup and dry up with normal TP, and only a couple wipes just to get at the harder to clean shit.

Some sewer systems are reporting the Flushable Wipes are not that flushable, at least they are not breaking up and are clogging the system.

I think raleigh NC was the latest one to come forward to tell people to not flush the flushable wipes.

you can use some TP first and wash only the smelly invisble stuff afterwards. Or you use your hand to scrub. That's why muslims never eat with the left hand, their religion formalizes this practice.
It's not yucky, if you use TP your hand will still smell like shit unless you use 1 roll each time. This way it won't.

People in North America use about 50 pounds (22.7 kg) of toilet paper per person per year
Western Europe uses the next most toilet paper per person, at about 30 pounds (13.6 kg), followed by Latin America, which uses about 9 pounds (4.1 kg) per person per year. People in Asia and Africa use the least per year, with Asians using a little less than 4 pounds (1.8 kg), and those in Africa using about 0.88 pounds (about 0.4 kg) per person per year.
Americans spend more than $5.7 billion US Dollars on toilet paper each year.
more money and consumption possible? Spend more money in barbarian methods of hygiene inherited directly from medieval germanic europe!

with a bidet you can recoup your investment and enjoy having a non-itchy and smell-free anus. The cleaning is also WAY faster.

Don't have the money or space for a bidet? Here's the asian alternative: the bum gun

a bit more difficult to use, but reaches the same objective.
Just make sure you have a backsplash and a water-resistant tiled floor because if you don't pay attention you're gonna spray water.
Brits with silly carpeted bathrooms need not apply.

i flush wipes all the time, never had a problem

The problem is not a couple wipes its all those wipes over time build up in your pipes and then you get to spend a pile of cash digging up your drain pipe to remove all those old and now stuck wipes.

americans shouldn't use bidets, I just can't imagine how nasty they would be because nobody would use one properly.

It all sounds very unsanitary if the wrong people try to use them and fail.

A'la, poop is still in the dirty bowl and it shoots it inside your butt. There is a dirty poop towel with poop on next to you that is meant only to dry a clean area. Or, if the bowl has a shower handle thing, it has poop all over it.

It just sounds like an opportunity for poop to get everywhere.

Our truck stop bathrooms are bad enough just to even hover over, I can't imagine how gross it would be to have one shoot toilet water directly inside of you.

1. water doesn't shoot anything inside your butt
2. if you're an animal that's your problem
3. you don't touch the asshole with the hand that is holding the hose

also this sort of stuff you use in your own private home: it's only your problem if you can't feel if your asshole is clean or not.

I'm just saying, your average GI Joe is going to take that thing and think it should be plunged inside of their asshole. And yes, the water will shoot a bit inside your anus. If water is shooting towards your anus, some water will get inside there and be trapped inside the folds of your rectum. It could be the water of one other person, or nobody, or it could be the last 10 dudes who used it before you D:

I start with toilet paper then use the flushable wipes to "finish the job."

I don't think you understand how this works.
That hose is attached to the potable water distribution system.
The water that comes out of that is the same water that comes out of the sink.
Second, unless you're gay your asshole is tight so water doesn't get in. If water can get in like you describe, it means shit can come out unintentionally the same way.

Anyway anyone who installs this in his home is not an average GI Joe, and these don't exist in public toilets in western countries.

In arab countries they're clean because they're installed on the right, so you have to use the right hand, and conservative muslims will never touch dirty stuff with their right hand, so it's generally clean.
I still wrap it in toilet paper when I have to use a public one, you never know who used it. Anyway germs don't enter through skin, just use soap afterwards.
