How do you not drip back onto it? Do you use paper too? How is it okay for me to use the same one right after Typhoid Larry? Doesn’t poo go everywhere?

It just seems so weird.

    Okay but are you just using toilet paper to dry afterwards? And does just water actually get it all? You’ve still got to get in there a bit right?

      A few things.

      1. On mine there’s a little guard around the sprayer and it peeks down under it when in use. There’s also a cleaning mode.
      2. I do use a some toilet paper to dry. Less than I would if I wiped. One day I’ll upgrade to one of the fancy units with a dryer.
      3. I don’t know about other people but I move around a bit to make sure that the spray gets everything, including “in there a bit”. If you dab to dry and your tp has anything other than water on it you didn’t do a good enough job spraying.

      It depends on your bowel movements and how much fiber you eat. I still have to wipe a little after the water, but far less than without. Others, drying is enough.

      After using one for a while now, it seems so uncivilized not using one now.

      Most people do, but a couple squares to pat dry is probably less than you’d use otherwise. Some fancier models have blow dryers. Personally, I won’t lie, I’m probably going to sit on the toilet for a few minutes scrolling through Lemmy on my phone after I’ve done my business so I tend to just air/drip dry.

      I have some pretty basic models, and they do a pretty good job getting everything clean, they have a pretty powerful jet. Definitely a lot better than I’ve ever been able to do with TP.

          Except you don’t, I’m now using damn close to 0 TP since, like I said, I mostly tend to drip dry.

          I suppose YMMV depending on the kind of shits you take, and maybe the geometry of your ass or the water pressure of your bidet, maybe your butt is shaped in such a way that stuff is splattering all over, but that certainly has not been my experience.

      Okay but are you just using toilet paper to dry afterwards?

      Some have built in dyers. Even with it, sometimes it feels a small dab helps some more, but it’s not really necessary. Also, that water should be clean at that point… Do you perfectly dry your ass with a towel after showering? Etc

      And does just water actually get it all?

      Usually. You can also run them more than once. Some have “pressure” settings. Some move back and forth. And you can always check with paper, and see if you need to change something or run another cycle.

      You’ve still got to get in there a bit right?

      I’ve never had to. Occasionally run a second cycle, but no.
