Bidet or washlet? I have a toto washlet that has a built in air dryer. Love the damn thing, but I still use a few squares of toilet paper to make sure it's completely dry.

I’m new to the bidet scene
OP after entering the bidet scene
spoiler
personally i still use a few squares of tp and just blot dry and flush it
I invested in one of those super fancy "smart" toilets with built-in bidet and hot air drying.
I used to work for the manufacturer and got a big discount on it before I left. It has a lots of overkill functions but damn I love that thing: Night light, dedicated remote, smell absorbing filter, mobile app, automatic flushing, sensor operated seat.
Its the fanciest thing I own.
what's on the app? profiles for different butts? live feedback from a down-under camera? AI stool analysis?
Don't wipe, don't dry, let the underwear do it's thing. I live in a hot area though so your mileage may vary if it's cold where you are.
Spray with bidet then dry with toilet paper. Why are people so confounded by these things? Have y’all never used water to bathe before?

Because it's a funny haha bathroom post

if you have to wipe with toilet paper anyway, doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a bidet?

Actually I'm a lemmy user, I use Arch btw, live in my mom's basement, I've never been on a date and I never go outside. Of course I've never used water to bathe before.
Tell you what. You drop a nice creamy dump on your floor, then try to get it clean with dry toilet paper. Let us know how it goes.
if you have to wipe with toilet paper anyway, doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a bidet?
No. The purpose of the bidet is to properly clean your posterior which cannot be achieved with toilet paper alone. Also the amount of toilet paper needed to dry is lower than the amount needed to 'clean'
Man, this post is pure gold.
Some of these replies are something else lmao
I had a fixed bidet and it got water all over. I switches to a wand style bidet and it was a fucking game changer. I can focus specifically on where I want and my ass is clean, even after Chipotle lunches.
I ended up getting a bunch of small towels and a bucket. So I rinse, dry my cheeks with a small towel, wipe with two squares of TP, then dry again with the towel and toss it in a bucket for washing with my regular towels.
Why are you bothering with special towels if you’re just using toilet paper at the end anyway?
My bidet does not shoot at my whole ass. It only laser focuses on certain parts, which I dry with toilet paper.
spot check with 2 squares of tp, when clean use single-use mini towels (I bought a pack of 100% cotton terry cloth squares similar to those used in auto shops)
the butt/coochie towels go in their own hamper and get laundered separately with the hottest wash setting
i live alone though. if i ever manage to convince a woman to marry me i imagine modifications may be requested...
You dab with toilet paper, for the love of all thats good, do not share an ass drying towel with your wife unless you went her to get chronic utis.
