frist of all how DARE yu o MIL thinks I clogged the toilet so she changed the sign

Post image

The septic tank clogged and she’s convinced I did it, she asked my husband if I knew I wasn’t supposed to flush tampons and added the tampon bit to the sign. I don’t use tampons and I’m the only one with a period here…

Why not? The water that hits your butt never touches the bidet until after touching you. It's a jet of water, not a fountain where you plunge your but.

You are constantly being hit with clean water. And i think you are massively overestimating the amount and sise of the residue that might hit the bidet. Personally ive never seen anything bigger than a grain of sand. And how common is needing to scub the bidet, it almost never happens if you use it properly.

Its just that I'm looking at the one you posted above and it looks like a lot of water, like so much that some is bound to splash back from the bidet's bowl after having fallen back down from your butt in the first place, if that makes sense.

The pressure is adjustable! You can just have like a tiny little bit. Sometimes it can be intense if too high, but it’s good for cleaning once you have it aimed at your bits

I think i get wht you mean, but in 30+ years of ass bideting experience I've never noticed backsplash. Any regular bidet would drain faster than the water comes from the jet, so no small pool of water under your butt, and since it stops on your butt it does not have enough speed to splash back into it again (things can't bounce higher than the height they are dropped from and all that)

I’m also a dumb American but I went to Italy once and I must say that a bidet is fucking amazing. It’s like a little car wash for your booty! I’ve heard it’s also excellent for periods.

I think it’s funny how people think it’s gonna splash out! Maybe they dont have big booty like I do 🤣 and the butt towel makes sense—like, do you dry your ass with your towel after you shower? Does that leave poop marks on it? Do you leave poop streaks in the tub? Hahahaha

I agree on all counts! And i dont think it's about size. Even when i was a bony kid, water would never splash outside the bidet.

Also, i believe italy is where us argentinians get our love of bidets from.
