I was taking my daily mid-morning poop today and while I was wiping, I thought, I wonder how most people wipe.

I tend to wipe while standing up cause it's more comfortable and allows for more cheek-spreaditivity.

So, I beg the question: How does most of Lemmy wipe? Do you wipe while standing up or do you wipe while sitting down? Why?

The real question is if you use a wet wipe at the end? Total game changer.

I used to but where I live the toilet blocks very easily so I had to stop but I got a bidet.

You shouldn't flush them down any toilet. Throw them in a lined, covered trash can.

I moisten my TP in the sink, which I can reach from the john in my special poop closet.

I just drip the TP into the bowl below me, that way I don’t have to travel as far.

Somehow that seems less sanitary.

I have long arms and my secret shitter safe space is literally in an old broom closet, so the sink is not inconvenient for me. It's my happy place.

Oh I was mega joking, that’s completely horrifying hahaha.

Plus, I’ve got a bidet, which is the most life-changing thing I’ve gotten since my first solid state drive.

I just wet the TP in the sink. Highly recommended. You're not going to clog up your septic system that way. Even flushable wipes aren't really flushable.

Unfortunately you don't have the option to use the sink like that if your stall is separated from the sink or farther than an arm's reach away.

Butt wipes are an absolute game changer. If I don't use them I just feel dirty for the rest of the day until I get a chance to shower
