I did get one like the Asian style here : http://products.mercola.com/toilet-bidet/ at first it was really uncomfortable, but I got used to it. Can't use that for washing feet or babies or chilling beer though haha!

Best practice wil be to still wipe with paper and then use the bidet - I understand some nations just wash. But not all the effort American White Beauty describes - who has that time, and what do you do if not at home or near a full bathroom? with the aim to install one at home.

In all my 53 years I have done well with toilet paper thank you. Bidets are rare in South Africa too. However, over the last 2 years I developed a condition where my bowels are not working properly and I need frequent trips to the loo and sometimes need washing not only in the butt crack but even into the rectum to bring relief. I just returned from a hotel with a bidet and found it very handy.

Woke up early in Venice hotel room and noticed we ran out of toilet paper. Googled what the other sink/potty in the bathroom was and got here. I am reminded by the new comcast 'Shaks got your back' commercial - thanks to the bidet, you saved m'day! Hilarious. Woke up early in Venice hotel room and noticed we ran out of toilet paper.

Renata you do seem a bit obsessed with the cleanliness of American genitals. Let me assure you that many of us take showers once or twice a day and do not walk around with...as I think you put it, "pee or poo" all over our bodies. I am curious to know also, which country do you live in? For your sake (and those around you) I must say I am sorry that when you visit the US we don't have a bidet in every hotel room. It does sound like cleaning yourself with paper, for whatever reason, be it medical or lack of coordination, is an issue for you. Wow!

I can't help but notice that you seem to spend alot of your time thinking & writing about this topic...hmmm...interesting. Have you ever thought of getting some therapy?

Please heed my advice & try to develope some more healthy interests. Best regards, Karrie Hello Renata, Wow!

If you were to come here and rent an apt. or go to the library or any public place I wonder what were you going to do.If you have cleaner / less primitive ideas pls let me know. Hi Renata,
