I have never used a bidet. Does it get “it all”?
The great thing about toilet paper is that it localizes the mess. Bidets spread the mess because water just goes everywhere. For those who want the feel of a bidet without the mess, wet wipes are the way to go.
When you don’t shower every day (Europeans) a bidet is a good idea/necessity.
My impression, and it is only an educated guess, is that europeans tend to use a bidet INSTEAD of taking a shower.
So after “wash and rinse”...how do you dry? Your underpants?
When my parents were building a home in the late 1960’s, there were all sorts of ads and printed materials showing bathrooms with a toilet and a bidet. I didn’t see them as a european thing. I just assumed they were one of those things that would be everywhere eventually. I was a kid. I thought every “new” thing would eventually be everywhere.
But we shower pretty regularly in the US. No real need for those here.
Ah sooo! Racing stripes...!
(Why you omitted this fact is a mystery, as there is a field specifically for such.)
Also it seems she's a dyke:
I'm going to invest in an in-toilet unit bidet for myself and my partner.
Partner, eh? Hmm. And Hmm again.
Kimberly-Clark and Scott Paper at the nexus of an EEEEEEVIL conspiracy??
Only in
(i) gas station/ballpark restrooms where:
(A) someone has made a TP "cushion" 1,2, or 3 levels of toilet paper around the seat and pushed that into the toilet along with the bowel movement
or
(B) someone has deliberately clogged the toilet as a prank (and possibly even crowned the top).
(ii) "low flow" "efficient" toilets in one's home (as mandated by the government).efficient
or
(iii) small children/pets in the home
Coincidently, a lot of those places don't even have toilet seats, you squat over a stinking hole in the ground. Turd world here we come.
It says women can use them “after sex”. Wonder how many use the jet stream FOR sex instead of their shower head.
AL: These babies are made in Maine, you know, at the little Ferguson factory. It's the Stradivarius of toilets and my dad could play it like a violin.
AL: Yup, I'll never forget the time my dad took me on a trip to Maine, to visit the factory. On the way up, I had to go to the bathroom. I begged my dad to pull into a truck stop. He said no. "Wait till we get there. It will be worth it." It was.
BUD: Excuse me here, dad, but a toilet is a toilet.
AL: Bud, today's toilets aren't worthy of the name. They come in designer colors, they're too low, and when you flush 'em they make this little weak almost apologetic sound. Not a Ferguson. It only comes in white and when you flush it... "BaahWhooosh."
AL: That's a man's flush, Bud. A Ferguson says, "I'm a toilet. Sit down and give me your best shot." Oh, if a Ferguson could talk, the stories it could tell. And now I've got one of my very own. (TEARING UP) Yeah. If only my dad could have lived to see this moment.
A: YES!
digital televisions
low flow toilets

We are not talking about "better mousetraps". Each replacement has its own faults, headaches, and problems. The market is not permitted to dictate the solutions anymore. Liberalism is.
Just what I was thinking.
