Idk i can clean my butt with toilet paper. I agree with the other reasons but i don't smell like shit all the time.
Honestly getting a bidet never entered my mind as an option until the yks guys were talking about them. Never got around to it
Even if you can clean a bidet is still better cause you wouldn't have to pay a premium just to avoid the single-ply ones that fall apart instantly. I haven't run the numbers but imagine all the beanis you can buy with all that TP money saved over your lifetime.
Yeah i know the bidet is better, maybe when I'm back from out of town work I'll buy one for the family shitter.
A bidet, until very recently, had only been presented as a japanese novelty toilet gadget in any media i consumed anyway. This is my guess as to why Westerners don't use them
I never understood the luxury Japanese toilet trope in movies and TV. Are the workers in America so exploited as to not be able to afford a piece of plastic that goes over their shitter? Ludicrous.
