Skid Marks

[gravitas]

hard to say which is worse, guys skid marks from shit, or women's skid marks from period juices. both are gross to discover.

if I'd have to say shit is the lesser of evils.....while most scat is rank as can be the smell is usually not "surprising"......snapper drippings and other less common putrifications have the disgusting smell as well as the shock factor of being unfamiliar

how to wipe your ass

And I thought we had too much time on our hands...

Isn't it the case that most of the civilized world washes rather than just wipes? Why can't we have proper commodes like they do in europe?

(Reminds me of visiting friends of the family in Italy and seeing their hot daughter's pubic hairs peaking out of the sponge - a bit of turn on to say the least for me at age 17 )

A while back I read a post maybe it was on this board or maybe a different one, the poster had included a study that was done testing the mints and toothpicks provided at the cashier in restaurants.

They tested them for fecal matter and urine, almost ALL of the fucking things were contaminated to one degree or another with both.

Read a similar study that tested shopping cart handles and found the same thing. Ever see the rug rats sitting high in the saddle with their poop-filled drawers dripping all over the cart. Hate using the things, now. Always wash my hands after pushing one around (cart - not kid).

He's correct that it isn't always men but having to be in the situation where I semi-regularly need to get up close and personal with people, of both sexes, I can say with 100% certainty that they're guiltier of swamp ass more so then women. That said women, some of which are quite attractive, don't have the market cornered on personal cleanliness. I've examined/treated women who to look at them you'd gladly screw but when you get in close you realize there's some fucking funky flora growing on their person. Its AMAZING the different kinds of stank the human body can produce

For fuck sakes people......soap + water = clean.....is that so difficult to comprehend?

I've long suspected you're a proctologist! Now, I'm certain!!

no, I'm just an asshole

 

[wolverine]

That sounds like Anita logic - you have to be an asshole to examine assholes.

 

[gravitas]

you have to be an asshole to examine assholes.

no, just curious and VERY brave

because in Europe bathing/showering is not as poopulair ... so a 'bidet'
is a cheap and easy compromise.

bullshit

a bidet is used after you went to toilet, it is not a substitute to showering.

OMG I can't believe I actually "willingly" read this thread, but it's like a bad car crash ya just gotta look

bullshit

sorry but I'll have to agree with the "ass master" (aka Lonely Ghost) on this one as the intended use of the bidet is not limited to post crapping clean up....

Usage
Bidets are primarily used to wash and clean the external genitalia and the anus, as well as the skin near these areas, including the perineum. They may also be used to clean any other part of the body; they are very convenient for cleaning the feet, for example. Despite appearing similar to a toilet, it would be more accurate to compare it to the washbasin or bathtub. In fact, the bidet makes an excellent baby bath. Anyone who has mobility problems and finds it difficult to get into a bathtub, or is afraid of slipping in the shower, may find a bidet an excellent solution for maintaining personal hygiene.

Users who are unfamiliar with bidets often confuse a bidet with a urinal, toilet, or even a drinking fountain. The user should use the toilet before using the bidet; its purpose is to wash afterwards. It is generally understood you should sit on a bidet facing the tap and nozzle to clean the genitalia or with your back to the tap and wall to clean the anus.

Bidets are made in several different designs. They may have one tap which pours (usually warm) water into a china basin. The basin can be plugged and filled if necessary, or the water can be allowed to drain away. Other bidets have a nozzle which propels an arc of water up into the air. This jet of water is angled to easily attain the perianal and genital area.

A bidet may also be a nozzle attached to an existing toilet, or a part of the toilet itself. In this case, its use is restricted to cleaning the anus and genitals. Some bidets of this type have two nozzles, the shorter one, called the family nozzle, is used for washing the area around the anus, and the longer one (bidet nozzle) is designed for women to wash their vulvae. These bidets are often controlled electronically rather than with a traditional tap, and some have an element under the seat which heats up to dry the user after washing. These bidet toilets are becoming increasingly popular in countries like India, where use of just dry toilet paper to clean the perianal area is considered dirty and unhygienic; however, the nozzle is controlled with an external tap within the reach of the hand. Traditionally, local style squatting toilets have been more common in India and are more convenient to most Indians, especially of the lower generation. But with the rise of westernization, western style pots have started becoming more common, and the most convenient way to wash the perianal area with these pots is simply to attach a bidet nozzle.

Using a bidet is generally more hygienic than toilet paper. However, most people usually use both, wiping with toilet paper before washing with the bidet.

Bidets are very useful for the elderly or anyone with mobility problems and for people with hemorrhoids.

People usually use toilet paper or a small towel that they hung next to the bidet, and is usually changed daily, for drying.

Bidets are common bathroom fixtures in some European countries (especially Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal), some Latin American countries (especially Argentina and Uruguay; there they are found in approximately 90% of households), the Middle East and some parts of Asia (particularly in India). Oddly enough, though France is the country where the word bidet originated, not every house is equipped with one, especially the smaller or cheaper flats. The bidet seems to be losing popularity and, though nearly everyone knows what a bidet is and how one should use it, it is today regarded as optional. In 1980 the first "paperless toilet" was launched in Japan, a combination toilet and bidet which also dries the user after washing. Combination toilet-bidets are particularly popular in Japan, found in approximately 60% of households. They are commonly found in hotels and even some public facilities. These bidet-toilets, along with toilet seat/bidet units (to convert an existing toilet) are sold in many countries including the United States. For details see toilets in Japan.

Residents of countries where bidets in private homes are rare, may be totally unfamiliar with bidets and have no idea how to use them if they encounter them (while travelling abroad for example). It is said that many American men first encountered bidets in French brothels during WWII and thought they were designed for the prostitutes to douche (inside the vagina) after sexual intercourse. It is not uncommon for people who have never used bidets to think that there is something strange or even dirty about them upon seeing one for the first time. These attitudes may be difficult for bidet manufacturers to dispel if it is taboo to discuss toilet habits and personal hygiene in public, as is the case in many cultures and sub-groups of society.

In contrast, residents of countries where the bidet is found in almost every private residence, find it difficult to change their habits when they travel in countries where bidets are rare. The only alternatives to a bidet in such cases is to use the bathtub or a showerhead (if it can reach the toilet). In countries where the bidet is common, people quite often think that those who don't use a bidet are dirty and that it is disgusting to have sexual intercourse with a person who doesn't use a bidet.

Bidet attachments are sometimes included on hospital toilets because of their utility in maintaining hygiene. Currently in the US, bidets are not popular due in part to their cost ($400+). It should be noted, however, that in countries where the bidet is very common, the prices are much lower. In Italy, for example, the price for a bidet seldom exceeds €200, and it is not uncommon to find bidets priced as low as €40, especially in do-it-yourself stores. An alternative, in the USA, would be buying a bidet attachment for regular American toilets. The Bidet attachments are becoming an affordable way for individuals and families to experience increased hygiene from the use of a Bidet seat. Many Bidet retailers now offer bidet attachments that range from $79 to $650. As with any item, the more bells and whistles, the higher the price.

The Bidet attachments are also becoming more popular with the aging community. Many within this community are finding that water is much more effective than toilet paper. Also the technical advancements of the bidet attachments are allowing users a hands free toileting experience. For example, a company called Bio-Bidet makes a bidet seat attachment that includes a remote control. It also includes an air dryer that particularly benefits any individual with limited mobility either due to disease, accident or obesity.

I can kind of see how a child could leave skid marks, but it is beyond me how a reasonably clean adult male (yes, unfortunately it's always men) can leave skid marks in his underwear. I hear all the time from women friends how disgusting thei husbands' gonches are. Are some of us that ill-equipped to even properly clean ourselves?

From my limited obervations, women are not pristine. A few women I know are skid mark specialists. Actually they are pretty much the only women I would know this fact about so the women I know are all skidders. In fact a couple have even crapped their pants when they thought they were farting or just couldn't hold it.

I can't claim to be always skidmark free myself but I'm not as bad as these women. And I have a hairy ass which makes it really hard to wipe it all clean. These women don't have to contend with that (I hope?!). Then again I've learned that apparently I wipe my ass in the wrong direction. Can't say I've ever wiped shit on to my balls though so not sure what kind of ass wiping incompentence people have that requires they wipe front to back. Kind of reminds me of the how to peel a banana argument.
