      the separated from the toilet kind.

      I don’t understand how those work at all…seems like that would be a recipe for poop tracks from the toilet.

        well… it is time to explain to an internet stranger how we clean our bum.

        • you shit on the toilet
        • you wipe with tp one or two times
        • get up, sit on the bidet
        • water, soap on the hand, and you scrub your ass with your hand, no this is not gay
        • go again with water and soap until you feel your ass is clean
        • dry with a small towel

        the towel is generally personal, and we change it every couple of days.

          That may have been sarcastic, but I appreciated the info. It beats having to take a shower.

            oh, yes, felt like it was obvious… i’m not touching anything without washing my hands after that.

              Well I mean I do that in the shower, and I don’t wash my hands again after the shower, so I have no idea what the mentality is.

          What part of cleaning your ass could be misconstrued as gay? Feels like an unnecessary aside, haha. Thanks for the step by step though, that makes sense!

            i legit have no idea, but on every tread talking about bitets, there is always someone that discards it because is gay to touch your own ass

      not surprised that Italy (who has a history of fascism and from what I heard currently has a fascist leader) has an authoritarian law requiring that people do things in their own homes (kinda like some HOAs in the US. Although, I have to admit, we must have lucked out with a HOA that’s not one of the shitty ones you always hear about)
