ENVR Using a bidet in time of drought

Seems like there was a time the environmentalists were pushing us to get bidets, so we could wash our bums rather than wipe 'em. I guess the latter option led to clear-cutting our forests. Don't hear much about 'em anymore. I guess trees are worth less than water (or maybe the trees a few states away are a better option when the water is only a drip).

(I searched for an appropriate thread to annex this to, but "bidet" seems to lead to the White House, and I really didn't want to go there. And there was a TMI thread by a more beloved leader I chose not to resurrect.)

If you have any concern about TP after the collapse, a bidet is a great alternative.

We love ours. And before anyone gets hand/shoulder/back surgery, get one of these! It makes the difference between you handling your business, or someone else doing it for you. You'll both appreciate it.

Do you all then pull your pants back up over a wet ass?
Seems unseemly to me, but carry on if you like it, I guess.

Well….not to demote the thread to that subliminal forum where all threads go to suffer eternal irrelevance ever thereafter, but…..

The Bible references water as the end all to the personal human sewage outlet maintenance program.

But, like many topics in scripture, an immediate first-step solution is offered to a common problem…..while leaving completion of process at the discretion of the reader.

If one’s bidet is adjusted properly, it doesn’t hose down one’s ass. It sprays right on your anus and ONLY on your anus. But if you really want, I suppose you could wiggle your ass around for that “lawn sprinkler” feeling.

Wouldn't make any sense because the manufacturing of toilet paper uses more water than a little biddy bidet would.

Its pretty easy. Several units have heated water, adjustable spray, and even a blower. Once you are done, you use 1 small piece of paper to dry off. Let's put it this way: if you smear your hand with peanut butter, are you going to use the sink to clean off or a couple pices of toilet paper? Which method gets your hand cleaner? Are you going to shake hands with someone after, if you use paper? It uses less resources since processing toilet paper and wipes are a huge problem in septic and sewage systems. A lot of these dont break down very well, especially wipes, which really should not be used in a sewage or septic system and thrown away seperately. Costco has a large selection online.

My sister swears by a bidet.
Last summer she fell and broke both wrists,

Yeah….just ponder that one a minute.


Her husband tended to her like a baby for about a week, but true love, only goes just so far after one week. Of “adult baby tending”

Many years ago I was on a big ranch moving cattle, they told us we’d come to a house and there’d be lunch. When we got there lunch was fine on of the guys went to the bathroom came back laughing, told everybody to come look, there were 8 bedrooms everyone had a bathroom with a bidet, we found it real funny turned out it was an old brothel, nobody had every seen one.

I just bought one from a new auction site, mac.bid for $83.00
It is a BioBidet BB-600S BB600S Electric Bidet.
Haven't installed yet.
The rest of the family is less than enamored with the concept.

I do have a septic and didn't think about the TP savings

Guys, your ladies will love having a bidet because, well, let's be honest....you guys leave quite the mess for us to clean up.

Make sure you get one with both male AND female spray nozzles. Even the $35 Amazon models become priceless.
