For as long as I could remember, I've been a standing wiper. It's just what's comfortable for me. But, it makes a mess and squishes everything together when you stand and i'm tired of the endless wiping. I use A LOT of tp. Before I used wet wipes, I was amazed at how much you can still clean after you finish using so much toilet paper. Wet wipes are a MUST. But, there are times when you aren't home that you can't take wet wipes with you and you're left with poop smeared booty butt cheeks and even run out of tp. So it's time to learn how to wipe sitting down. I don't know how the hell to do it efficiently and effectively. It's so incredibly uncomfortable. You lean all the way to one cheek and stick your hand down in the disgusting toilet bowl and try not to touch the seat? How do you really get up there at that angle? I end up cramping up and still feel dirty deep inside.
/ thread BTW, I stand wipe to this day. My wife complains about the dingle berry mess I leave on the bathroom floor when I do this. I just hate reaching my hand in the toilet I will stand wipe for the rest of my life. You'll never convince me otherwise
On a separate note, my wife's car has one of those steering wheel warmers and everytime I use it, it reminds me of a warm toilet seat. After driving for a bit and once the steering wheel is full on warm, I feel a sense of violation and turn it off. Also the button icon just resembles a stinky steering wheel. Gross
I'm trying to figure out how the hell you can wipe while standing up. Honestly did not know this is a thing people do.
I thought this was going to be “which way you wipe”. Standing up to wipe seems to work better after I eat middle eastern/ Indian food.
I converted to standing up in college. The mechanics of this are simple- you grab some tp, stand up to a half-squat while your legs are slightly spread so your cheeks don’t close, wipe, toss, wipe, look, toss, repeat if needed. By the way, fecal bacteria contamination is the biggest reason why women get way more urinary tract infections than men (that and a diet that encourages that bad sort of bacteria growth). If they converted to wiping their arse standing up it would create a natural workflow barrier where they weren’t wiping forward when they wipe their butts.
I always wet my toilet paper if next to a sink. Sometimes I pre-wet it before going to a stall in a public restroom....and yeah when sitting you just lift a cheek up (kinda on your tip toes for one foot) and dig in there
I have the same reaction but as a stander. I saw the video posted above but I don't see how I can make that work comfortably. Thank you Clutchfans for bringing two words together that many didn't know existed.
Like full on standing up? That can’t be a thing. That’s just going to leave **** behind. I get like a hover or a partial squat but a full stand and wipe has to be the worst idea.
