Bidet issues

Hi people! I just moved to japan and im loving it so far. Anyway I was wondering how to keep the toilet paper from sticking to me after using the bidet. It just falls apart and clumps up on me. I guess I could use the bidet again but then I would be all wet. Thanks

  1. don’t rush things – give it a minute or so for the excess water to run down into the bowl…

  2. You just need a gentle dabbing of the TP. You’re mainly using it to dry, not for mining operations

  4. Aside from what others have said, try out Scottie toilet paper. It’s better than the rest at not becoming cowrie shells for my butt hairs imo.

  6. Ahh, yes. The luxury of four-ply, tear-proof toiletpaper is no more I am afraid. I tried working around that issue myself by trying different brands but nothing lives up to the 4 layered goodness of european ass wipes.

    I don’t know if you fall under the crumple-up paper and then wipe demographic or if you layer your paper neatly and then wipe. You definitely want layers here and instead of wiping, which results in the paper disintegrating, you want to pat.

  7. Are you using the super soft girly TP that’s made out of puppies?

    If so, you need to switch to something more hard and manly.

    The Costco sandpaper bogroll’s my preferred choice.

  9. I will share my technique, which uses the cheapest toilet paper from my office.

    Fold over a 2-square length 5 times, place on thigh, put palm on TP rectangle with fanned out fingers (without exceeding TP width), close fingers (this should grab the toilet paper between each finger without use of thumb).

    Now that the proper grip is secured, using swift motions, wipe desired areas. If you linger, you will meet the same fate as before.
