Bidet / washlet. Your life will forever be divided into a time before you had one, and a time after you had one. You may no longer enjoy vacations because of the lack of one.
After a bidet pick up a water flosser. It’s like a bidet for your teeth, pure hygiene comfort
Or just use either for both tasks, if you're on a budget. My Waterpik bidet is orgasmic.
except those times you get shit stuck in your teeth
Such as that time when 2 persons shared 1 beverage container?
Hum, this seems like the better route. My bidet flosser is inconvenient.
I cant fucking stand water flossers, the feeling is much worse than regular floss, it kind of tickles in a really annoying way. Besides dentists seem to prefer people use regular floss anyway.
It is disgusting when you realize most people just use toilet paper. It’s just one step above being a barbarian.
I stick my arse over the edge of the bath and spray with the shower.
You nailed it, this is exactly how I describe my bidet experience. My father-in-law is a convert and spontaneously began presenting it the same way.
How did I live before?! Gross!
Virtually all of us use both. Bidet will clean you and TP will dry you.
I mean, literally anyone who's used a bidet before will know from daily experience that your comments are just wrong. It's not difficult to dry off, in fact it's pretty simple, and it uses much less toilet paper than the old way. The primary purpose of a bidet for most people also isn't TP conservation - that's just one of several nice side-effects.
I'm gonna duck out of any further replies here though because, frankly, you seem more interested in pushing this weird narrative you've settled on (in an old / dead thread, no less) than actually discussing it, and I can think of about a hundred things I'd rather be doing with my time. You do you, clean your butt whichever way makes the most sense to you.
