Or you know, wash with water AND soap. I wash with a bidet and use liquid soap along with it. That’s no different than washing in the shower.

Do they make extra fancy soapy bidets?

I mean, i haven't actually been to Japan myself, but I've heard some things...

[–] Orbituary@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I haven't ever seen one there, but it's pretty likely.

Extra points if you use ones of these to spray your ass, if you don't have any good bidets, let alone bidet sprays to buy

They're not only as effective, but also portable...

Do you literally never use the restroom in public spaces or something? Or is this just a special treat when you’re at home?

That’s for at home. But to answer your other question, I do carry a small 50ml squeeze bottle of liquid soap in my bag, like those keychain hand sanitizers. Obviously it’s not always useful if the public toilet doesn’t have a bidet in the first place, so I also have wet wipes in my bag for a cleaner feeling at least until I can get home and wash properly.

And to answer your one other question, yes portable bidets exist. I have one and bring it with me when I travel so I can still wash if my hotel doesn't have one.

You do know portable bidets exist, right?

[–] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I can’t tell if this is a joke or not lol

Either way, people carry around bidets and soap everywhere they go? Not judging just super surprised.

[–] SuiXi3D@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

No to the soap, but the little battery powered bidet I have is awesome. Comes in really handy… everywhere that isn’t home.
