          There's no soap in a didet, so how is just using water better than using paper to wipe your ass?

          Ok, eat your lunch with your hands, like Pizza or burgers, and then wipe your hands with paper, see how clean your hands afterwards...

            @matteo-nunziati An ass towel you say?

            Yup. Pretty common. You need to dry off after a shower. No different. Localized shower.

            Again, how do you keep that ass water off your pants while moving around to dry your ass?

            Same way you keep bits of poo from dropping on your pants when using TP.
            Not sure I agree. I've never used a bidet, I just imagine that water is all over the place compared too normal poo, which is very localized. Of course explosive poo is a whole different story. 😉

            There is water everywhere after a shower, too. Clean water.

              who moves around? if your using the Shattaf, your doing everything while seated and all in one place, and when you finish just sit for extra 30 seconds and gravity will do its magic, also ofcourse we use TP. While I am sit i prepare some TP and then I stand up and as I stand you dry yourself.

              I cant believe I am explaining that regular water is much better for cleaning than TP... and why and how.

              The only thing I liked at Canada toilets, is that you can throw the TP in the toilet, and it uses some kind of suction instead we use alot of water to create an whirlpool of some sort to flow down.

                  I know, but for people who haven't used bidets, they are indoctrinated to think that TP is acceptable. I've never met someone that used a bidet then was able to go back to smearing.

                    Not so much sides, as a failure of people (like me) to believe they'd have the squat style toilets in the middle of the waiting area in train stations!

                      an advanced topic would be (and periodically we discuss with my wife just to joke):
                      "bidet: from front side or from back side? The expert's opinion."

                      @Dashrender this should explain why you do not drop water: you have the towel in fron of you and you dry over the bidet:

                        I actually researched it and found out they are illegal in the US.

                        Where is it illegal? I have to assume this is a state level law, not federal, but please confirm.

                          Plus - I'm naked in the shower - so no other clothes to get wet.

                            I'm a bit surprised by this one, too. I know that certain entities must provide free toilets, like restaurants, but banning toilet businesses seems odd.

                              IN a bidet? you don't get IN a bidet. that's like asking if there is toilet paper IN the toilet. There is soap at the sink, which is normally like, you know, six inches away.

                                rational for water being better than toilet paper alone.
                                quite boring reading...

                                  It seems the laws may have changed. I think I looked it up in 2003 when I got back from France. I just read an article that in 2008 NY lifted the ban.

                                  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pay_toilet

                                  In the United States pay toilets became much less common from the 1970s, when they came under attack in the United States, from feminists as well as the plumbing industry. California legislator March Fong Eu argued that they discriminated against women because men could use urinals for free whereas women always had to pay a dime for a toilet stall in places where payment was mandatory.[4] The American Restroom Association was a proponent of an amendment to the National Model Building Code to allow pay toilets only in addition to free toilets.[5] A campaign by the Committee to End Pay Toilets in America (CEPTIA) resulted in laws prohibiting pay toilets in cities and states. In 1973, Chicago became the first American city to enact a ban, at a time when, according to the Wall Street Journal, there were at least 50,000 units in America,[6] mostly made by the Nik-O-Lok Company.[7] CEPTIA was successful over the next few years in obtaining bans in New York, New Jersey, Minnesota, California, Florida and Ohio.[7] Lobbying was successful in other states as well, and by decade's end, pay toilets were greatly reduced in America. However, they are still in use and produced by the Nik-O-Lok company as many of these laws have since been repealed.

                                        There are many new toilet and bidet combinations today. It's like... hyperconverged.

                                          Added one of these to the toilet at home a few years ago.
