How do you not drip back onto it? Do you use paper too? How is it okay for me to use the same one right after Typhoid Larry? Doesn't poo go everywhere?

It just seems so weird.

How easy is it to get your asshole into the stream? Does it spray your butt and you need to reposition?

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

It's a focused stream. You can usually position them forward / back on the bidet, then you just wiggle until your butt is clean.

Seriously the best thing ever. Get one.

If the key is centered correctly (a 2 minute job) then you instinctively position yourself when you sit down.

Doesn’t poo go everywhere?

Not sure what you mean, but might be a misunderstanding. It's not sucking water out of the bowl. It's spraying a jet of fresh water. Some will even warm it up for you. 😁😌

I use washcloth to dry off afterwards. I bought a cheap pack of like 50 on Amazon and keep them in a basket and wash them after each use, they definitely last the week or so between laundry loads. It may not be necessary since I think some people use the same towel several times but it’s not a big deal for me.

I was always confused about the usefulness of bidets because I was taught to wipe with wetted tp at least once while wiping.
