To be fair, I don’t go around touching things and eating with my bare buttcrack all day. I do those things with my hands, which I wash after going to the bathroom. And I shower at least once a day and clean that buttcrack with soap.
That’s not to say that a bidet isn’t better than TP, just that the analogy never made sense.
You’re still carrying it around with you. Forget about it being on your hands - if you got some shit on your leg, would you wipe it off with a paper towel and call it a day? You’re not touching things and eating with your shins after all
If that’s all that were available, and if repurposing existing fixtures to jury-rig something would be awkward and violate social norms, and if the leg-shit were always someplace where the contours of the human body kept it from really touching anything else, and if my culture had a practice of including an extra layer of relatively expendable clothing that was always between the leg-shit-spot and my pants, then yeah, I’d manage.
It’s not that it’s a terrible analogy, but it’s more a bit from standup routine than a revelation about life. That being said, I’d still very much prefer to be able to wash it off with water, and while my shins are generally fine, I try to avoid pooping outside the house and will not be giving up my home bidets, thank you very much.
It’s not supposed to be a “revelation about life” though??And I wasn’t talking about taking a shit in public, I just said getting shit on your leg.
If you’re walking barefoot in a park and step on some dog shit, I doubt you’ll feel clean after wiping it out from between your toes with a dry paper towel. Even (especially?) if you put shoes on after
I feel like this thread has a bunch of Charmin employees commenting.
Explicitly? Nowhere, but then again you offered no alternative, just made the comparison of using TP on your butthole with using a paper towel on your leg.
Nevermind that we don’t typically pressure wash our legs when we get things on them, poop or otherwise, the inference seems to be that we should want to wash the area. Which typically uses soap.
Now, if you want to actually finish your analogy so it fully explains differences and have a full discussion about it, feel free. I’m sure plenty of people will have fun poking more holes in it, though, so I hope you don’t get too up in arms about it.
Only using TP now makes me feel like cave man. If you got poop on your hand, would you just wipe it off with napkin and go on about your day? No.

i wash my butt and legs with soap every time i poop
So you’re saying you have soap with your bidet? I don’t typically see soap as part of usual attachments.
What? Where did I mention soap in either scenario?

Nah man, I’m good on the analogy since you seem pretty heated about it lol
I’ll just accept that you think rinsing something off with water is somehow less clean than wiping it off with a dry paper towel.
No, but I eat with my hands. My butt hole hardly ever touches my food before I’ve eaten it.
It’s rare, but it still occurs.
Not ruling it out.
You know that cucumber in the salad that you just ate…
I just read your comment as, “I eat butt with my hands.”
You don’t wash your hands after shitting?
That’s not what I said at all.
