Harvey thought this was weird until one of the staff said, "Hey, if you accidentally got some of your crap on your arm, you wouldn't just wipe it off." I may look into using baby wipes; you know, buy box, try them out, see if my ass thanks me for it.... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 534950 United States 07/05/2012 02:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hello, this is an interesting topic. I am from the east too and live in US now. In our country, we always wash our butt after using the toilet. For people from US and other parts of the world who never wash after the business, this is a stupid, dirty act. For them, using the paper is the best cleaning method. For them this is the practice they have been following for centuries and they believe that is the best and they can't think about anything else. So far it worked for them and they don't see a reason to change it. But for people who have the habit of using water to clean, the use of paper never makes them feel clean and it is not a cleaner way in fact. You walk with a dirty butt till you have a shower. Your clothes may get dirty. You may make places like a public swimming pool dirty and spread germs in it if you go there without a shower. For people who are worried about getting your hands dirty, there are better ways to do it in order to get your hands getting dirty. In our country, many homes has a small hose attached to the toilet which has a sprayer at the end. After you do the job, you can spray water with force to the area and this instantly removes the dirt and makes it about 95% clean. Then you can wipe with a paper and dry off. Or if you want, after using the sprayer you can safely use your hand to clean up the area to your satisfaction and dry off with a paper. Then wash your hands with soap. Believe me this won't leave your butt or hands any dirtier. In some countries, there is a stuff called "bidet" in their toilets to wash after using toilet. This is also a very good approach towards cleaning than using papers. Baby wipes or wet wipes are good alternatives too if you can always carry one. If you don't have water, bidets or wet wipes in the toilet just like any american toilets, you can still do a decent job. Wet some paper (the hand wipes are better as it is sturdy)and keep it handy before you get in to the toilet. After you finish, wipe with some dry tissues first and then use the wet papers a couple of times. This way you can ensure an almost full clean up. whenever I am home, I use a mug and water to clean up and if I am outside the house, I do the above technique with wet paper. Don't say that I am mad. So far this worked the best for me and will work for you as well. Happy Cleaning! |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11418535 voila. eat healthy, and you normally don't even need toilet paper. your arse will be clean after defecating. i find cleaning with water a lot more hygienic in theory (i don't do it myself; i use one piece of toiletpaper to see if it's clean). if you don't like to get your hands wet, you can always install a bidet in your toilet. |

Thor's Hamster User ID: 2287167 United States 09/07/2012 07:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Water will clean your ass better than paper, I imagine. But the question is: At what cost? Sh*t under the fingernails? Even if you scrub really well afterward, there's something unsettling, imo, about using your hand, with the aid of water, to wipe the sh*t out of your pucker hole. This is why in Arab culture, it's an insult to shake hands with the left hand. They wipe with their left hands. I wouldn't like to be on a football team with a left handed, Arabic quarterback.

cleanex User ID: 20599988 United States 11/03/2012 11:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I dont think you guys get it. In eastern cultures, walking around with a dirty ass is not an option. Wiping with paper is equivalent to walking with shit hanging in your ass. Until you get this idea, you wont understand why people have to cleanwith water. yes the hand does come in contact with shit, but it needs to be cleaned. Even when you shower, your hand comes in contact with shit that was left over by your toilet paper, isnt'it? And what did your forefathers use when toilet paper was not invented? Also the eastern homes use the water spray, but of course not the poorer homes. |

And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.
