I purchased a relatively cheap bidet recently and it is the single best life upgrade I have ever made . It paid for itself in the first 2 months of not having to buy toilet paper (or at least not nearly as much). It is amazing, I highly recommend.

Preach the bidet gospel, brother.

So many dudes can't get over the butt stuff, it's hilarious.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

2 months! I should try this out... if i was still single, a 12 pack would last me like 3 months if not more. Having a wife? A 36 pack lasts like 1 month... its literally a roll a day. It drives me nuts because I honestly can't understand how half of that isn't just waste (if not more).

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Yeah women in my house use over a roll per day too and I have no idea how because a roll lasts me over a month

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

I'm half convinced my daughter eats the stuff.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

It's a good strategy. When it exits it auto cleans.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

You'll save loads of money over time. My wife and I used to go through at least half a cube of toilet paper each month. I installed a bidet and our TP consumption was easily quartered.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Two things I don’t get about bidets: How do you know you’re clean, and how do you dry off without leaving toilet paper lint everywhere?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

It's an assisting tool, not the primary cleaning method. Blasts off bulk material and loosens up whatever's left, but you still need TP to finish the job. A lot less, but you still need some.
As for lint, that happens regardless of the use of a bidet. Nothing changes there.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Disagree about the assisting tool. Yes, you can still find shit, if you stick your finger up your bum hole, but you don't need to powerwash your intestines to be clean. They'll be full of shit soon after anyways. So long as the outside of the door is squeaky clean, that's as clean as you'll get.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

What sort of horrendously overpowered bidet do you have that can push through the sphincter like that?! And more importantly...

Where can I buy one?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Quite a few of the cheaper ones that just have a solid stream can be that powerful, at the right angle. Of course it depends greatly on your house's water pressure, too.

... and yea as Ephera mentioned, you might have to relax a bit. It's easy to resist but that much water pressure against the sensitive flesh is uncomfortable to say the least.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I use a hand-operated travel bidet, so it's exactly as overpowered as my handshake is firm. 🙃

More seriously, I did say not everything past the sphincter will get cleared out. But yeah, I believe it is generally possible for humans to relax their sphincter, so if you angle the beam right, that should do the trick...

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Why would you have the gun and not want to wash the deep parts and reach the intestines?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

What if I want to powerwash my intestines?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I don’t have a problem with lint unless I have to shit while my ass is wet.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I’ve had to shit again after having just used the bidet (still sitting down), and given how clean I feel after having washed, I don’t notice the wetness at all, because I’m going to wash again.

That said, I hate the feeling of being barefoot on bare floor, so it’s not as though I don’t understand.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

You can check whether you're clean with a toilet paper, if you're unsure. But I did so a few times at the beginning and never had stained toilet paper (so long as I didn't stick it inside, I guess), so I don't bother anymore.

In particular, you also feel cleaner when you regularly use a bidet (like you're freshly showered), so that also makes it easier to feel when you aren't clean...

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

I don’t get about bidets: How do you know you’re clean

Precisely my question to those who don't use them

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

You know you're clean when there's no poo on the paper.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

If my arm was constantly covered by two layers of fabric this comic might have a point.

Also, just using a bidet is like washing your car just by hosing it off. Sometimes you need a good scrub.

Also, the appropriate thing to do would be to use soap and water.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I don't think anyone "just" uses a bidet. I follow up with a couple wipes, it's just more a finishing move than the whole strategy.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Which brings me back to the problem of TP lint on a wet ass

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Never had a problem. Lint on a dry ass was always way worse.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Our experiences are diametrically opposed

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Maybe you're pressing too hard?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Without water I can press a lot harder.

Once the toilet paper gets wet it shreds like, well, wet toilet paper

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

You don't need to press that hard at all. It's more a light scrape than anything. It's never been an issue for me.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

I don’t press hard. If my ass is wet the TP shreds.

Maybe I’m using inferior paper products.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

You dab, you don’t rub. And you get clean the same way you clean your back or head, you’re not looking in a mirror for those right?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

My back and head usually don’t have poo on them. If I had something grimy like that on my head or back I’d want to have a wipe or a mirror to make sure there’s none left.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

point is that you don't have to see your head to know it's clean, you can feel it when you're washing. Are you looking at your butthole after you wipe? Are you wiping down your cheeks and ballsack and schlong too? You don't need to be able to see what you are cleaning to get it clean. And afterwards you still get a check with the toilet paper.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

You know you’re clean the same way you know you’re clean in the shower. And just like the shower, some use a bit of soap when using the bidet.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Sometimes when I have a particularly heinous dookie I’ll get in the shower afterwards, and I make sure I’m clean by actually wiping my hand across it to see if there’s still poo.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

You can do the same thing with a bidet and completely obviate the need to get in the shower.

As I understand, those who clean with soap on the bidet are already washing the hand that washes out the ass-crack, the same way as if you’re in the shower, and now to know your ass is shower level clean.
