What Women flush down the Toilet

    Fatbergs, you name it they'll flush it down..,..

    Dishwasher is another thing that many of them believe is magic and can make solid foods disappear such as pans full of pasta, mince, veg, potatoes etc etc.....


    I had to unblock the in-laws sewer many many times and found the mother in-law was flushing plastic bags, sweet rappers, kitchen towel etc....

    It took a good 6 months of stating these are causing the blockages....

    Wet wipes is a major issue as there are only around 2 makes that are actually biodegradable and the rest contain plastic and won't break down.

    It's nice knowing I'm probably the person with the cleanest arse in the room.

    Exactly. I'd love one. Always use one when abroad. Come out of the jax with a smile on my face.
    Put it like this, if you ate a big sticky chocolate cake, and you had chocolate all over you lips and cheeks, would you wash it off or wipe it off?

    Sounds good, L. But I’ve always been a little “concerned” about bidets.

    I’ve no issue with the “cleaning” part but what do you do after the fact? I mean, you’re fairly soaked so is there a communal “arse towel” on a little hook like you would a hand towel?

    I’ve heard people say they use toilet paper but, to me, that sounds a little “counter intuitive” as you’d need another “spritz” to get rid of all the little bits of paper. It’s a bit of a minefield, to be honest.

    I’ll await your response before I lean over the side of the bath and use the shower hose as a “poor man’s bidet”.

    I agree, it just looks like a mess tbh. Another poster talked about washing your face if youd eaten chocolate cake rather than wiping and that makes sense but honestly again Id avoid it because youve water dripping down your arms and making your sleevs wet . A wet wipe seems like a good compromise between the two

    Wet wipes are extremely bad for, not only, the environment but also the pipes.

    Even the “flushable” brands are bad.

    A bidet with a warm air bum dryer must be the solution. If they do not exist damn I have just told you all my million dollar making idea :(

    You could just bring in the hairdryer attached to an extension cable.

    That is a Japanese toilet. Visiting Japan was like jumping into the future. Even the public toilets have this. And they're clean too.

    Do women poop too?

    A fellow I work with has a neighbour who's too mean to get his rubbish collected so flushes everything he can't burn down the jacks.The council are called a few times a month to unblock the estate sewer lines.
    The hungry bastard even flushes chicken carcasses down.Everyone in his estate knows it's him but how do you prove it?
    Fcukin incredible.

    So what I do when I'm using a proper bidet is that I take some toilet paper and pat it dry, works pretty well and without fuzzy bits everywhere given you use decent enough paper that doesn't rip when you look at it. Others use towels, in some households everyone has their own and it's going on the wash at the end of the day.
    My mother lives on the canaries away from tourist destinations and people are urged to not flush paper, it's norm for locals to bin it. So a bidet makes sense because you can wash yourself, you're cleaner and you don't need a lot of paper.

    Another option is a bidet attachment, they're quite cheap and like a little showerhead right at your toilet. They work with water pressure though, so if your water pressure isn't great they might not work properly in the upstairs toilet.

    Most of the toilets. Plenty of squat style shîtters still to be found in Japan.

    I presume a sweet rapper is someone who sings rhyming songs about how much they love their nana and the like.

    A new and genuinely original take on the daily women-bashing thread.

    So, well done.
