I don't really want to towell off my butt after I poop. Wet wipes do the trick and I need way less paper.
Edit: downvoted by the bidet brigade. I tried not to come off as offensive but I guess it's always a risk when sharing an unpopular opinion.
a lot of them come with air dryers
and wet wipes aren't flushable even if they say they are
I use one, I do my business and wipe once. That's it. There isn't a drying process to worry about.
I have a bidet thing on my toilet that costed just 30 Euro. You don't have to clean your ass by yourself ever again. It just does it for you. Was also raised with wet wipes but trust me a bidet upgrade for your toilet is like magic!
I still use less paper drying off my starfish than I did to clean up before I got my bidet.
My bidet has a air dryer to dry your no-no.
But even then, it's not spraying your whole butt, only a specific spot. So just like regular wiping.
my old bidet was a bit cheaper and splashier, so I bought 2 18-packs of white cotton rags. Folded'em all nice, used one to wipe after everything was clean to dry off. Now I've a new bidet, and it's less splashy, pretty much zeroes in on the starfruit to the point I don't really need to dry off afterwards.
