      It’s genuinely difficult going back to toilet paper once you get used to a bidet. It’s just so much better in every way

              You can literally do this cheaper by slicing into the side of an existing bottle cap.

              And if you’re going to argue that this is meant to allow the bottle to be reused, I can bring up a hygiene issue why you’re using the same bottle on your ass as well as drink out of.

                tons of people use this kind of bidet for camping, it’s not like you’re putting it in your ass. The water can spray like 10 feet, so you can hold it far enough away that hygiene isn’t an issue.

                I am curios about using an old cap, my guess is it would be tough to get the stream to angle up (with the water bottle upside down), but I’ll have to try it next time I get a plastic bottle

                  I use a special battery powered travel bidet and keep it completely separated from all my stuff in its own hermetic bag in its own compartment in my luggage.

                  The fact that you are casual about the hygienics regarding water touching your ass and backsplash implies to me you are a fucking disgusting person to use the same bottle to drink out of.

                    Sounds like you haven’t caught the ultralight bug then, must be all that hygiene 🤷

        Is it weird having water sprayed in your ass like that? Also how do you dry, you just pull your pants up with wet ass cheeks?

          It’s a little weird at first but you very quickly get used to it, it’s now to the point that when I’m forced to use toilet paper that is now weird and uncomfortable. I have a fancier bidet that has a drying function which is essentially just a miniature hair dryer pointed at your ass but when I’m in a hurry I literally just use a hand towel.

          Butt towels are surprisingly common for bidet users because you’re literally just drying water, the bidet has fucking power blasted any sign of shit away so the towel will never get any marks or streaks on it

            Wow interesting. TIL that some people prefer pressure washing their ass hole, instead of wiping.

            I will say though that I’m convinced the toilet paper at my work is actually 1000 grit sand paper. It’s a bit of a miserable experience so I can see why a bidet is preferred at times.
