Standing to wipe your ass
For me it was wiping your ass in general.
My family comes from sri Lanka we just fill a bucket with water. (Or use a bidet if available)
So with the bucket would you use your hand to apply the water? I'm having trouble figuring that statement out.
You basically pour the water and use it to wash your rear by hand. Wash your hands thoroughly, and dry off.
Nowadays in sri Lanka they have bidets everywhere but here in Canada we don't sadly.
I still wipe first with a bidet. I don't need little bits of poo going anywhere. And then I wipe after, because I don't need swamp ass, either.
We need an electric ass dryer, for after we use water like civilized people.

There's both types, but most don't realize the other one exists.
I'm not sure how we got on the topic, but it came up in a drunken conversation with a friend. I'm fully converted to a sit down wiper now.
I mean, how does standing even work? Sitting spreads things and makes it all accessible.
You just get up after pooping, and then pull the TP through your butt cheeks. It's massively inferior, the poop gets spread around when you stand up. I used like 10x more TP as a standing wiper. I will say it's gentler on the asshole though.
that sounds awful, I would never think to stand to wipe - it smushes and spreads it, making it so much harder to clean up
Step one be skinny Step two raise one leg
I don't think we were drunk, but I did eventually ask a friend which they were... and it caused the same conversion for me.
Really?
