Because your ass does literally nothing else all day, but your hands touch things like food etc. I'd say it was more like getting shit on your leg. Do you wipe it off or just wait until you next have a shower?

That said I love the idea of bidets, I'm just terrified it'll get my underwear and clothes wet while being cold and unpleasant.

The beam is way more focused than you might imagine. It can't reach your clothes, there's a fat-ass human in the way ;)

It’s a focused stream of water so you just have to aim a little. And the cold water is actually surprisingly refreshing even in the winter for me.

" I'm just terrified it'll get my underwear and clothes wet while being cold and unpleasant." I've never had this issue.

I’m terrified of bears. A little excess moisture? A low level fear at most.

it's more like having shit smeared on your face. you wouldn't use a tissue to wipe it off and smear it around, you'd use soap and water.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
