When I was a child we were just using washrags and towels. Honey I think the comments are even more helpful than your article maybe you could add some more information. -

Of course, the simple idea is that, rather than dry-wiping your bottom, water is essential in toilet hygiene. And while bidet is useful and fine, it takes up space in the bathroom. In Turkey, a built-in faucet at the back of the toilet's oval sitting-piece, just beneath the seat, with a separate valve on the wall functions just the same, and is a standard feature in all toilets sold in the country without exception. One minor drawback is that it is a single-valve system squirting only cold water, rather than a dual hot-cold adjustable water outlet common in bidets. In recent years, water squirting pieces with adjustable water temperature are being shipped to much relief. As for usage, after you're finished with your number two, you reach back to the wall while seated to turn on the valve and water is targeted to your bottom. After using it a couple of times, you learn to fine-tune the op

this is one of those things I've never encountered but always been curious about. Glad I got to find out the "behind the scenes" on this without actually having to use one (I think I'm just too old fashioned to give it a try...lol)

I totally agree with you bidet is getting more and more popular nowadays in U.S. The first time I ever tried bidet was from my trip to Korea. All suites had a electric bidet seat installed. I simply fell in love with it in my first experience and first thing I did when I return home was "googling" try to find reliable bidet seat. I was surprized that there were more companies selling bidet in U.S than I ever expected. I ran across UCI site selling bio bidet. Their site offers pretty well organized informaiton and comparison charts made easier which model to choose and I chose BB-1000 top of the line bidet they offer. It had all the functions competitors offer and what really caught my attention was enema function. Using it for nearly a year now, I am very pleased about the product and can't imagine myself living without one. I take protable bidet whenever I travel now. I highly r

When you are used to using a bidet at home, how do you wash yourself when not at home? I have a bidet in my home (the expensive neorest 600 bidet). I got used to it but when I travel or not at home, I use a sanicare travel bidet. It's portable & battery operated. All you have to do is put water in a water reservoir and it's ready to use after your toilet/bathroom use. It's very handy. It comes with a bag. You can carry it with your bag or your shaving kit.

1. When you are finished defecating, wipe your anal opening one time in the usual manner, throwing the toilet tissue in the toilet. This prevents excessive feces from being washed off into the bidet. 2. Turn the hot water on in the bidet and open the spray valve until the water is spraying about six to eight inches high. When the water feels hot to the hand, adjust the cold water valve until the spray is comfortable, being careful not to let the spray column exceed over a foot in height. 3. Straddle the bidet, sitting on the rim and align the anal opening with the column of spray water. Gradually open the spray valve until adequate pressure is achieved to flush the remaining feces from the anus. 4. Go back to the toilet and check with toilet tissue to make sure that the anus is clean. This may take some trial and error to perfect. Be careful adjusting the spray column to avoid scalding the anus. Some bidets recommend that cold water only be connected to the bidet for people over 60 years of age. For females only: The bidet is an excellent utility for cleaning up the female genitalia after intercourse. The procedure is the same, except no toilet tissue is needed. Bidets are sometimes mounted in various positions and may have limited room around them, requiring different facing positions. Either facing forward or backward works efficiently. If the valves are behind, it requires reaching behind the back to adjust them.
