standing up isn't that bad, really, if you reach properly... I would think sitting would have its own hygiene issues, like getting it all over your arm... do always, always make sure to wipe front to back (particularly important for women because it is easy to get infections in sensitive places if the wrong bacteria get in there)... can't believe I'm posting about this...
Isn't there a song that goes something like... "I wipe from front to back so I wont get a bladder infection" lalalaLAlala something like that
I STILL do the one-sided leaner. I'm a lefty, so I lean to the right, and yes, my left foot does slightly come off the ground. The brilliance of me being a lefty is that when I lean to the right, 90% of the time, there's gonna be a wall there to catch me (the wall houses the TP holder...since most people are righties, it's on the right side). My bunghole is cleaner than yours.
Before this thread I had no idea people wiped sitting down. I tried it, and it sucked. My arm touched the toilet seat.
I think people are receiving "sitting" and "standing" differently than others. Lets get deep into this: Many people use the sitting down/squat position to wipe, mainly because it requires spacing between the legs, therefore opening up the hole area. These are both essentially the same technique, but some people squat off the toilet so they don't have to come in possible contact with the rim. I suggest if you go back to front, you wash your gooch (space in-between your hole and balls) in the shower because you will run into there, yet front to back or back to front are just as effective. As for standing, this means you are fully erect standing up and you reach around and wipe up in a credit card motion. This position for some is problematic, because as I stated earlier the hole area isn't stretched out, therefore gathering as much as you would in the squat/sitting position. I hope this clears things up for some.
Exactly the same. I shift my weight to the left so i guess i am leaning, not really sitting or standing...
I'm right handed, but I reserve my left hand for butt-wiping regardless. I brush my teeth and eat with my right hand, for pete's sake.
Why do some people throw there lasted WIPED SHIET in the trash CAN??? I see that at my restaurant, saw it at my house during a house party, saw it at some office building restroom before. WTF!!! is that SHIET!
I'm a sit-down leaner myself. Shift to the side like I'm trying to squeeze out a fart. Wipe front to back with maybe some to and fro motion to finish it off good. As an aside, has anyone ever used too little paper and your finger pokes through while wiping. And then you try to smell your finger and see if anything actually got on it and then accidentally put some on the tip of your nose? Just hypothetically I mean.
Asians do that because their native countries encourage it. The toilets there aren't strong enough to handle paper in the pipes.
Wow , great thread. I've always wanted to discuss the finer details of ass-wiping. I lean to my right asscheek, wipe front to back, then lean to left asscheek, wipe front to back. I'm thorough. And i dont see how your arm would come in contact with your bunghole when you wipe sitting down, unless 1) your bunghole is the size of a basketball and 2) your arms are extremely short
