toilet paper verses water spray which cleanest

[davidhen]

Having been to Thailand several times now. I have become extremely impressed with the douching method. So much so that I have installed a douche in my UK home --- I wouldn't be without it. Also we have a lot of trouble with our drains/sewers at home. The use of a douche = hardly any paper going down the pan, and I don't need to get out the drain rods.

This thread reminds me of this Eddie Murphy clip:

By the way, squirt and wipe is the only way to go.

I learned to like the bum gun so well I brought 3 back to the US for my bathrooms. I was doing remodeling anyway so I made a second half inch connection by each toilet. The Thai threads work fine on US half inch pipe. Saving a lot on toilet paper now. If I time it right I can skip the paper and step right into the shower. My laundry is cleaner and I hate to use the toilet any place but my house now. I recall my lovely Thai-school-teacher-wife's wrinkled nose when she first saw my daughter's underwear (teenage girl refuses to adapt). Daughter has to do her own laundry now as Waan Jai refuses to touch the "dirty girl's" clothes. (Wasted hours cleaning underwear by hand only to have all her hard work crapped on again next week).

I heard a Doctor once ask "If you fell down and your hand landed in dog sh*t would you wipe your hands off with a paper towel and call it good? Heck no! You would use water at the very least and probably soap as well! So why is your ass different?" I had to agree with his logic.

Yeah, when I was a kid in the states, I always heard how dirty foreign girls were, especially Asians. Well, the first girl l had in Asia washed both of us before and after sex, when the last girl I had sex with in the states just pulled up her panties and pulled down her dress and we went back to the dance. I know who the dirty girls are.

obsolete debate.

Thai people have chosen loo paper already.

Toilet paper aisle is the fastest growing in every supermarket nationwide.

Malls have certainly chosen toilet paper in their toilet.

It's O- V- E- R

Noooooooooooooooo! tell me it isn't so!

You lean forward to seal that end off so water doesn't spray out the front then point slightly down from the top of your crack and spray away. Wipe dry with toilet paper, roll it up and throw in the garbage can. Don't throw it down the toilet because they use narrow pipes so it's not designed for that. Since many public washrooms don't have toilet paper you usually want to carry a little something. If in a restaurant you can use napkins. If you don't have anything there is always your left hand and then drip dry. That is why it's considered disrespectful or bad manners to use your left hand for anything such as eating or shaking hands. Sucks if you're a lefty.

Spraying doesn't work so well in the western world because the ground water tends to be a LOT colder. ESPECIALLY in the winter. THAT will really wake you up in the morning!

I am a lefty and its handy. Aside from having disenfectant with me for such occasions, I find I get the lions share of the food on the table by grabbing it with my left hand

I know what you mean. Last dance I went to, the girl's parents showed up, asked her if she wanted a Slo Comfortable Screw (mixed drink), to which she replied, ''No thanks, I just had a fast <deleted> against the truck''

Never got the hang of the bum gun. What do you use to dry yourself with after your douching?

A dedicated hand towel which is laundered regularly. IS THAT TOO HARD to comprehend?

Yes, it is. Can you please explain what is a "dedicated hand towel", I have white hand towels and a couple of other colours but not sure if I have a dedicated one.

I would suggest getting brown ones

The first sentence of the reply was spot on. The second was not necessary, seemed condescending, imperious and CAPS used (denotes shouting).

Can put a fan next to the toilet, and use as a dryer as well.....

Careful. Whirling blades and low hanging fruit are a dangerous combination.

There are times, when I meet a farang and he instinctively presents his hand to shake. Sometimes, when I know my right hand is soiled (I work in the garden and on motors), I'll smile and tell him truthfully why I'd rather not shake hands. Sometimes basic truth is ok, and takes precedence over formalities.

Don't you wash your hands?

Almost 50 years ago, a Vietnamese friend asked if Americans urinate on their hands. I said, "I guess so, sometimes, why?" He answered, "Why do you wash your hands after you urinate instead of washing them before you urinate? Hands get dirty, but your penis should be clean."

I have to admit, he was right; however, I prefer to wash before and after I urinate. Try it, washing is much cleaner than smearing.

[samuibeachcomber]

this is a really dirty subject can we clean it up guys

[ScottMallon]

Dettol and a wire brush. You can't get cleaner than that.

Ouch...

Never used paper for 20 years.

Even when abroad it's quite easy to do without.

Flush the thing then scoop up the water to wash your anus.

Toilet paper is very unhygienic and impractical.

Toto washlet prize possesion!

For outside baby wipes not just for babies anymore. Prefer the "Green Tea" from Watson's.

I carry a rucksack that carries a low power air compresser to blow any clags away. Always and I mean always ensure your aim is good. One wouldn't want an inflated digestory tract.

Yet shoving your hand between your ass cheeks after dipping it in a dirty toilet bowl is sanitary and practical ??

I find it strange that many other countries haven't adapted to this. This was one of many things that I thought about as to why we don't do this in the U.S. I later added this to my home in the U.S. and was constantly asked why...

Then again I also wonder why every home in the us doesn't have smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, escape ladders for all homes that are more than one story and the list could go on...

I like to use the spray. You need not dry but if you wish you can.

My daughter-in-law who is an internal medicine specialist says the washroom is the cleanest room in the house because of all the water. WATER WATER WATER. She did not say paper.

Thoroughly wash your hands and give them the smell check prior to exiting the washroom.

By the by, I occasionally found this system in Italy.

Before the Chinese invented toilet paper, Europeans did not clean themselves at all. They thought it was natural - like a horse or cow. They wore little perfume exuders.

Queen Victoria was quite proud of the fact that she only had three baths in her lifetime. Her birth, her death and (before the coronation?).

Would we call that a little anal retentive?

Thank God today we shower sometimes 2 times/day.

I have rarely been accosted by offensive body oder in SE Asia. It seems to occur more frequently in North America.

try testing the water sprayer for fecal bacteria. i bet its off the charts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we are talking ShiT arent we..................................lol.

[willyumiii]

Almost everyone in Thailand uses toilet paper.

We use it to clean our face and fingers when we eat!

Silly Farang!

[thailiketoo]

I just went and tested the sprayer head and the shower head and the bathroom sink. No noticeable results on the sprayer or the shower head some in the bathroom sink. So now you know. Of course you only know about my bathroom but that's better than no information which is what you had before I posted.
