Fuck dude wipes though, that’s a ridiculous concept. Just get a fucking bidet and stop hating your anus

I just use baby wipes, they're cheaper and not gendered, plus I already needed them for my kids. Haven't taken the plunge on a bidet yet

Totally fair, I used baby wipes and just threw them away before my bidet. Bought a cheap cold water only bidet and it changed my life! It’s especially good for periods and cleaning for butt stuff. And horrid shits.

Are they biodegradable?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 5 months ago

No, but neither are my kids' diapers. The way I see it is there are far worse things I could do to the environment and far more impactful changes I can make on my life for the environment than consuming 3-4 packs of baby wipes a year. I'm sure I'll convert to a bidet sometime but right now I've got bigger fish to fry

Something I've seriously considered is how you can just add a hose and nozzle "bum gun" to your existing toilet water supply valve and you just need to affix a little mount for it on the wall. Hardware stores have kits for this that aren't particularly expensive.

It's definitely much cheaper than a whole porcelain piece of furniture or one of those fancy seats that probably wants access to your Wi-Fi and an account subscription. XD

I noticed my in-laws had these things while we were house sitting for them, and dared to try it out. Weird at first, but(t) AMAZING.
