In many countries, toilet paper is meant to be flushed or people are used to a bidet. For a man, this could mean pretty much no reason to have a trash can near the toilet.

But if you plan on having people over, specially women as a date, have a little trash can with a plastic bag and a lid near your toilet. That’s where your guest might dispose of a tampon, pad, cotton swabs, condom packaging, and similar items.

Make sure you have some toilet paper available even if you prefer a bidet, too - there are many times it could come in handy, and people might be shy to request it after using the toilet and realizing its not there.

    Not just for hygiene products and cotton swabs but facial tissues too. You’d think tissues would be flushable, but they’re made differently than TP and don’t dissolve the same way. So they clog up the machines at the wastewater treatment plant and make their job harder. Do your local turd swirler employees a solid and don’t flush your tissues.
