    That’s still saving a significant amount of TP even with the double wipe. Before I got a bidet I was wiping upwards of 5-10 times after some shits.

      But what about the chapped butt? For real, the three times I’ve gotten to use one for more than a week (fancy ones in hotels), I end up feeling like a baby with diaper rash. I’d use triple the TP gladly just to avoid that feeling. I’m not someone who has that happen to them normally either, so it was definitely the bidets.

        Tbh I love a bidet because when your poop is not totally solid, no matter how much you wipe with tp your butt never gets fully clean and it feels horrible and it burns. If I don’t have a bidet I usually get in the shower to clean. Then just dry with a towel or TP. Ever since I started using it it’s difficult to poop in a public place

          I know you’re meaning that it’s so good you’ll never go back, but I’m hearing that you’ve handicapped yourself for public restrooms, lol.

          Fancy Japanese bidet at a Hawaii resort, heated seats, temperature control, three speed blow dry, aiming modes—the works. It was horrible.

        Your body will quickly get used to using a bidet. It’s like shaving - the first time you shave your skin is dried out, but your body quickly adapts. If chapping is a problem, a dab of hand lotion or some lip balm solves it.
