Embrace the Bidet Life
Adult skid marks prove that wiping alone isn’t enough. Thankfully, America is catching on to the bidet lifestyle. Bidets and bidet attachments eliminate the need for excessive wiping, using a fresh stream of water to clean your bum after you poop.
Anyone can learn to use a bidet and enjoy a cleaner booty with a spray that’s gentler than toilet paper. This guide ensures you won't make a mess of it the first time you try a bidet.
Step 1: Do Your Business
Bidets go beyond #2; they're great for post-workout, pre/post-sex, and period hygiene. Sit down and do your thing. Modern bidets have hygienic nozzle guards and self-cleaning features to ensure you’re always using fresh water.
Step 2: Aim Your Sprayer
Every booty is unique. It might take some experimentation to get the water to hit just right. Try different seating positions and lean your body to find the perfect angle.
- Non-electric bidet attachments have a nozzle adjuster for water flow and a pressure knob. Start with low pressure.
- Temperature-controlled bidets add a knob for water warmth.
- Electric bidets usually come with a remote or side panel for functions like nozzle adjustment, front and rear washing, heated seats, and drying.
Important: DO NOT SPRAY without sitting on the bidet first!
Step 3: Wash Your Butt
Maintain a squat position with your knees higher than your hips to relax your muscles. Slowly lean forward and back to thoroughly clean. Wash for 5-30 seconds, avoiding the highest pressure to prevent accidental enemas. Choose your preferred water temperature.
Washing with a bidet removes 99% of poop particles, which are the invisible bacteria left behind after wiping with dry paper.
Step 4: Pat Dry
Your butt is sparkling clean! While you can drip dry, it’s faster to pat dry with a small towel or a couple of squares of bamboo TP. An electric bidet may also offer a built-in dryer.
Step 5: Wash Your Hands
This step remains unchanged. Bidet use prevents poop particles from transferring to your hands and other surfaces, but still, wash your hands.
