I mean, let's say it was sour kraut Saturday and you just downed a whole litre of the stanky delicious juicy slop. Are you gonna totally destroy that bidet? How do you keep that thing hygienic?

    I'm gonna asume you were born in North Klansville (Louisiana) and explain you that you shit on the toilet normally, then switch to the bidet to rinse your butthole, then use paper to dry/finish any dificult spec.

    Then you flush the toilet and flush the bidet and clean with a toilet brush and bleach any remaining skid.

    Voilá, your ass is now cleaner than the average murican and you didn't become gay because of it.

        If the pressure is strong enough you can aim to your pleasure

      A bidet will give you the realization that Americans are walking around with doodoo asses.

      Also despite spraying your booty hole with water, they actually save water by cutting down (dramatically) on your use of toilet paper.

      I have a sqatti potti to get the natural position, but you know, sometimes you just build up some serious gas and it just comes out like a hydrogen bomb with spray everywhere...Kind of being serious here, I'm interested in the idea of a bidet, but practicality seems a bit off to me. Are they easy to keep clean?

      Like, do you have to clean the thing after every go?

        It depens on what kind of bidet you get, I was talking about the separate ones (the ones with their own bowl), not the built in.

        In any case, if nothing got attached to the bowl (or the movable stick in case of the built in) then you don't need to clean it immediately. But is always recomendable to clean your toilet as often as posible.

          Ahh, interesting. I think I'll look into the separate kind, seems like a non-committal way to try one out!

            Eeh no, actually those need the same plumbing and space as another toliet so I reccomend the built in

              I think we may be talking about separate things. There are squeeze bottle types you just fill from the sink, which is what I'm going to try, and there are some that use the same water source as the toilet via a fitting with a splitter and it is just a hand held nozzle that sits in a holster attached to the upper bowl.

                Ah, yeah I never tried any of those, I was thinking about the ones that are just a retractable ¿stick?/¿wand?/whatever that you attach to your toilet.

        I have a sqatti potti

        should've used this as your fad example instead of cast iron tbh

        Most of them retract when not in use and they have a little lip that covers the nozzle from debris while retracted. So you’d need to clean that more than the nozzle itself. A lot of them also have a “cleaning cycle” where they just flush themselves with water to remove anything that may have gotten on it while spraying.

      bidets are clearly an artifact of late capitalism, and I can't believe I'd see people on this Hexbear website advocating individual commercial solutions for communal problems

      I just have a comrade purse their lips and spit a big mouthful of water at my chocolate starfish
