Toilet paper
Get a bidet. Trust me
Still need good paper to pat dry. I've yet to find one that has a dryer function that actually works. A slight breeze of warm air ain't gonna do it.
Hey just trying to look out, I can't cite my sources atm (think I read it on Re**it years ago), the Japanese have fucked around extensively with hot-air dryers on bidets. Powerful ones that worked. Use & overuse of such devices can lead to a dried-out butthole, like it can be detrimental for your health. Do your own research, proceed with caution, don't go crazy & mess up your body.
TIL TIHI 😭😭
Use wipes , one wipe after a lil wash is mint
Those aren't flushable
Upvoted!! 🙌🏻 Not flushable, even if they say they are. But they do eventually break down, as do most things. So you could "go Greek" & dispose of wipes in a small toilet-side trash bin, then dump in regular trash or even compost. 🙂
The Greeks at least aren't supposed to flush toilet paper because their septic lines literally can't handle it. It sucks & I think a lot of the people I was with flushed it anyway, but that's the protocol. I followed protocol because I am well aware of how much septic problems suck to fix.
Disgusting. And nowhere near as good as a bidet. It just doesn't clean as effectively.
