I’m new to the bidet scene, and this one has me slightly confounded. Should I install a new towel rack next to the toilet? Should my wife and I share the towel? Do you wipe first? There are so many unanswered questions in the ways of bidet-ing!

.....toilet paper...?

Wipe, rinse with bidet, then wipe again to dry.

Why pre-wipe? This feels like washing your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.

So you don't splatter little bits of crap god knows where. The reason we use the bidet is because wiping isn't enough, so it's not redundant.

Rinsing your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher is actually a good idea if the dishes are very dirty though...

Scraping is definitely needed, but you might be able to make some changes to save water and time. Sharing this from Technology Connections, this guy saved me so much dish pre washing time!

Wiping first is just going to smear shit around and, if you have a hairy ass, get it more into the hair. Skip the pre-wipe and it will be just fine.
