minus-squareepicstove@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·3 days agoFor me it was wiping your ass in general. My family comes from sri Lanka we just fill a bucket with water. (Or use a bidet if available)
minus-squareForester@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11·3 days agoSo with the bucket would you use your hand to apply the water? I’m having trouble figuring that statement out.
minus-squareepicstove@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 hour agoYou basically pour the water and use it to wash your rear by hand. Wash your hands thoroughly, and dry off. Nowadays in sri Lanka they have bidets everywhere but here in Canada we don’t sadly.
minus-squareRampantParanoia2365@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-23 days agoI still wipe first with a bidet. I don’t need little bits of poo going anywhere. And then I wipe after, because I don’t need swamp ass, either.

minus-squareshottymcb@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 days agoI’m not sure how we got on the topic, but it came up in a drunken conversation with a friend. I’m fully converted to a sit down wiper now.
minus-squareRampantParanoia2365@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 days agoI mean, how does standing even work? Sitting spreads things and makes it all accessible.
minus-squareshottymcb@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·54 minutes agoYou just get up after pooping, and then pull the TP through your butt cheeks. It’s massively inferior, the poop gets spread around when you stand up. I used like 10x more TP as a standing wiper. I will say it’s gentler on the asshole though.
minus-squaredandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·50 minutes agothat sounds awful, I would never think to stand to wipe - it smushes and spreads it, making it so much harder to clean up
