once you have used a bidet ... you will never go back.
its like the difference between washing you hands and cleaning them off with a paper towel.
In my time in the Service we were sent to Hong Kong for a visit by Spiro Agnew. We were put up in a French oriented hotel. The guy I had with me was from Arkansas, WAAAAY back on the hills. He was astounded by the opulence of the acommodations and while having beer sent up to us,I happened to look into the bathroom where he was lapping up water from the bidet. He thought it was a water fountain, which, in a way I guess it was.
Oh tell me about it, I was in Okinawa for a couple of months and was staying at the Tokyo Grand Mer Hotel not to far from MCB Foster, and man not only was the room nice but if there is one thing I wish I had taken back with me was that toilet, it felt good, very Kawaii.
Baby wipes are a good alternative - esp the cucumber-scented kind!
