    I'm Turkish and you cannot find toilet seats without a bidet in them. You literally can't because they're all sold with one. Although not as sophisticated as a Japanese one, it does the job. In fact, I didn't know that there were toilet seats without bidets until I went abroad. HOW AM I GOING TO CLEAN MY BUTT WITHOUT A BIDET?!!, I said. I still stand, and live, by that sentence.

    In Italy, Spain, Portugal, some Muslim countries and some South American countries (not France, where it has been invented) in every single bathroom you find a bidet bowl, connected to in/out water via plumbing, next to the toilet bowl. It's not an electronic integration to the toilet bowl like the Japanese one and it's used with soap and water and you regulate the hot/cold water with tap. Bidet is not optional, it is part of the bathroom as much as the toilet bowl itself.

    • @lacdirk
      @lacdirk 3 года назад +26

      And since you don't actually poop or pee in the bowl, it's a lot more sanitary, especially if there's more than one person actually using the facility.

      @@lacdirk Yes! And considering that Italian moms are in general cleaning freaks, they'll probably be cleaning it every day or so (I'm Italian and that is the only experience I have with bidets). One objection many have is that they don't want to share a bidet with strangers, but as far as I remember it is really hard to find bidets in public toilets. So much so that I have many friends you don't want to poop in public toilets because there are no bidets. I miss my bidet :)

      Yes! :) Looking at properties, I was shocked to find bidets everywhere. It's an old school bidet-- separate from the toilet-- but you'll find it in some of the oldest, cheapest, most rural farm properties. If it has a roof on it, and the bathroom has a toilet, even if it's in a separate building (outhouse!), it almost always has a bidet.

    • @NanaSevers

      How do you deal with separate ones? You take a massive dump in one and then squat waddle over to the bidet? Doesn’t it kinda squish around? Do you use any toilet paper to get rid of the chunks first then go to the bidet? How do you dry off after the bidet? Asking for a friend 🤔

    not only does it feel cleaner, for me it is a lot quicker than using paper (used to take me ages, I was super thorough) and most importantly it's really gentle on your ring. you know those times when you're sick and you have endless diarrhoea and your ass just feels like it's in shreds from all the wiping...? not with a bum gun!

If it's high-pressure, how does it not spray shit flecks everywhere? Help me understand! I think it's cool you had the same thoughts and got converted, but how does that NOT happen? Where does it go if not places you don't want it to?

    2.) I got one back when there were toilet paper shortages, and honestly I kind of dislike the way it feels, but it takes less time and uses less paper so I endure the 2 seconds of discomfort for the sake of efficiency.

    38 year old male here. I bought a bidet a few months back and have been too lazy to install it. Today it's raining non-stop, and I figured I would get some overdue chores out of the way. I just had my first bidet experience a few minutes ago, and besides the initial setup where I didn't realize the spray was set to on when I turned the water back on and promptly hosed down myself, my walk in closet, my cat, and anything else within a 5 mile radius, it was absolutely amazing. I've had a mild fissure going on almost 3 years now, and after wiping with paper, I've basically just learned to live with discomfort. This is the first time in years where I walked away from the toilet both feeling clean and more comfortable, but also slightly violated, and I'm starting to question my existence. The only downside is the spray on mine is so hard that it's basically a carwash for my balls every time I use it, but hey...they probably needed cleaning also.

    I have a Tushy Spa bidet at home and LOVE IT. It does require you to dry off a little with toilet paper, which made me shocked and jealous to hear your comment about not needing to dry off in Japan. Maybe it's a water pressure thing? The lowest functional pressure on the Tushy is kind of high-- the simplicity of the thing means it's really just dependent on your toilet line's pressure.

    I'm so glad I've stumbled upon bidet RUclips. So my journey began Christmas 2020. I had just found out that I had a genetic disease that is going to require yearly colonoscopies, beginning in February, at age 33. We're in the midst of a pandemic. I told my wife, jokingly, that we should get a Tushy since TP is getting hard to find and I need to prepare for yearly colonoscopies for the rest of my life. Christmas comes, she has gotten the Tushy. We install it in January, and it's ready to go.
    I know it sounds hyperbolic, but holy crap it's such a life-changer. I swear by it. I now have a package of baby wipes at all times in my desk at work, just in case I have to poop at work, where the bidet is not present. I will make myself virtually sick refusing to poop anywhere but in my own bathroom if I can help it. The fact that America doesn't wholly embrace the bidet in every toilet as most of the developed world does, is insane. Possibly even dumber than refusing to have universal healthcare like the rest of the developed world.
    You hit on it in the last segment of the video, when people ask why a bidet is so much better. I tell them....if you get your hands muddy, do you just grab a paper towel and wipe them off and that's it? No. You use water get them clean, and dry them. So why are you just wiping the mud off your butt with a paper towel and not using water? You're gross.
