    In this video:
    A mini-shower for your nether region, bidets are a popular way worldwide to keep said regions tidy, and there are plenty of extremely inexpensive options for easily outfitting any standard toilet with one. So why has this popular bathroom fixture not caught on in the United States? Old prejudices, (surprisingly new) habit, and comfort-level. (Note: Toilet paper wasn’t commonly used in the United States until the 20th century)

      I USE A SMALL PLASTIC CUP OR PLASTIC BOTTLE at home BOOM less than a $1! If it doesn't have poop on it thow away your toilet paper in the TRASH!! That degrades easily.
      USA bathrooms don't the room just install a rear spray jet at back of toilet designs or a higher front one to squirt your junk but STILL a rag or toilet paper is needed to DRY than walk around wet moist, air alone still uses electricity energy.

    The most significant factor is one that you did not consider at all: Most Americans have never even heard of them and have no idea what they are. You would be shocked if you came here and did a poll on the street of an average town because you would find that most will have never even heard the word "bidet" in their entire lives, and even if they had they would not know precisely what they do. I have one, and after installing it had both friends and family ask what it was and why I had it.

      I also think a lot of american cities don't have that much water and get charged for it... around here we just pay a tax once a year for it, and you can use water as much as you like... I'm not even kidding, its just 12$. So I guess bidets would be easier to make into a thing around here

      Water prices differ around the country, and are based on usage. People who own their own home pay a monthly water bill which averages between $10 and $50 per month. People who live in apartments don't pay for water because it's included in the cost of rent.

      I'm a cheapo, I got a $30 one from Amazon. No soap or drying, just a really basic cold water one. After I got used to getting sprayed with cold water (maybe about a dozen times before it felt natural), I much preferred it to repeatedly wiping and hoping to get everything; couple seconds of spraying is so much less hassle and I don't have to get my hands dirty. I plan to upgrade to a warm water & soap & drying one eventually, but in the meantime, the basic cold water one works fine (just don't dry off with toilet paper, it dissolves. I use a single wet-wipe instead.)

      You answered your own question, "for others at the toilet to look in..." It is a favorite American pastime to watch others take a dump, sometimes with bets placed on splash count. Some McMansions even come with his and her thrones in the same room for mutual entertainment. Sheeze, and people say Americans know nothing about other countries...

      It's for safety, especially in the ladies room. It's harder to assault a woman in a stall, if someone can look at your feet and see that there's a man in the stall too. At the very least, a predator would be stopped earlier, as opposed to having all the time they want in a private space with a victim.

At a certain point, I stopped using toilet paper for anything but drying it off. When I got back home, I found one online and had it installed on my toilet

      Not really,. Sure, it's cold, but it's coming from pipes in your walls, so not ice cold. Maybe in places with snow in the winter it may be to cold?. There are versions that also tap into the hot water under the sink. If your sink is next to the tolit that's a option, and really not much more money. I got mine at Amazon, it's a Neo 185, but they have other versions including hot water. If you have close by power, and want to spend some money, you can get really fancy. From seat warming, to hot water, to air drying. What I have is cheap, works great, just a little to get used to being sprayed like it does. The cold water really doesn't bother me. I'm using a fraction of TP that I used to use, as it's just a quick dry up wipe yet clearer then ever. It's a power shower for your butt. TP can never get you as clean. I'm not a wet wipe person either. That's not a solution for me.

    • @searchingfororion
      @searchingfororion 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Noisy Spectator this is a question I've pondered for over 20 years and my theory is the following: the first is for scooping and scraping (you notice that the seashells are smooth unlike the ones that you find at the beach so they will be much more comfortable than using one of those sharp pieces of calcium) the second you use the ridged side to "polish" away Any unwanted leftovers, the third (I hope) is smooth but naturally porous (such as pumice or talc) to remove the moisture from the front, then back (including residual debris) it could also have a soothing infusion of say, tea tree oil/mint etc, to act as an antiseptic and also provide a "clean/refreshing" result. Also, as this is a future with probes that can make graffiti vanish without a trace, I do not think it is too far to venture that the shelf itself is antimicrobial and would have a similar feature for cleaning and sterilization as each shell is replaced.
      I can see how if with this technology the "handfuls of wadded up paper" could seem bizzare and gross to those accustomed to the seashell method, especially since the base of the shell lets you take care of your clean-up with far less hand to waste risk.
      If this seems a bit far-fetched remember that before the inventions of sanitary napkins and tampons so that women would either just bleed on themselves or use literal rags during that time of the month. Considering the efficiency of laundering in those days, we would surely laugh at someone from that era confronted with a self-adhesive to put in their undergarments or a wad of cotton (or plastic stick) to shove inside themselves.

    As a former plumber/electrician I can tell you, 99% of all new build houses/apartments are not wired or plumbed for the installation of a bidet. You can think its an anti Brit thing, but its not. In order to install the bidet you need an additional GFI outlet and a hot water line along with the cold water line that's normally there. True you can jump from the sink hot water feed and the normal GFI "hair dryer" electrical outlet to wire and plumb the bidet. However, if not done during the initial construction, depending on where the toilet is located in reference to the sink, it may be required to tear the walls out to bare studs to run the water and electrical. In most cities this has to be done by a licensed union plumber/electrician that has to pass inspection. Then rebuilding the bathroom walls. I always thought it would make more sense to use a wall that is easily taken down and replaced over any piping in the walls in case of leaks etc. as opposed to sheet rock. So if building a new home, set aside enough room to install 2 toilet bowls side by side if you want the classic stand alone model which has all the same down piping to refuse and line in for hot and cold water. Adding up the hours, piping, electrical wiring, GFI outlets, the bidet itself, a Porsche or Mazda priced bowl, makes it kind of silly when theres a shower RIGHT there in most cases, seems kinda goofy. Baby wipes are what many women swear by these days for that time of the month, or when pinching one off turns hectic, and it makes sense. I have seen a baby shit all the way up its own back and front, and be cleaned up in minutes at a theme park. on a 100 degree day, so they can more than handle a semi brown cheek I am sure. for power to air dry and massage /women's charmer models My personal fix should a dump get out of hand, is to simply take a shower. :)

I've been to too many places where they are the norm and got used to them.

      Bidet toilet seats need a grounded outlet and easily tap into the water supply already present. No need or all the construction you have sited. I have installed three toilet seat bidets. With the first bidet we ran a grounded utility extension cord to the grounded outlet already in the bathroom. With my next two bidets in our new home, the electrician installed a grounded outlet beside the toilet. Connecting the bidet to the existing water supply from the toilet was so easy a plumber was not needed. Both houses were 100 years old. No construction was needed to install the bidet toilet seats.

      No need for all of that. the seat heats itself and the water. All you need is a power socket near the toilet. I have only installed one at home but this is certainly the case. I use just hose bidets in other places. I use these after spending time in Japan (toilet seat bidets) and South East Asia (simple hose trigger nozzle variety) They are much cleaner. Saying this my Chinese wife doesn't like them for some reason, she does like the heated seat.

    This may vary by country, but in general bidet (traditional, not the Japanese robot-like) is not used "in replacement of" toilet paper, but "in addition to" it. You wipe the gross stuff with paper, just as you normally do, and then you wash with the bidet using soapy warm water. You finally dry with your own personal small towel, specific for that purpose (usually color coded or with initials for the different members of the family). And another clarification... this is normally done even if you will immediately go to take a bath.

      No no! You are using it wrong mate! You wash it good with water, rubbing it with your left hand if needed. Then you dry it out by tapping it with TP if needed. Then just wash your hands with soap.

      It is weird that companies like these don't advertise amzn.to/2feSc9W. I mean, for $26 the thing pays for itself in a month or two from how much less TP you use and is a more clean experience. It's also easy to install, if you have a septic system drastically extends how long it will be until you need to have it pumped or otherwise serviced, and if everyone used it would save a ton in tax payer money on sewer maintenance, particularly since the wet-wipe craze is continually clogging the lines: th-cam.com/video/TgHVO-RZ8c4/w-d-xo.html. It practically sells itself. They just need to get the word out.

    As an American living in Japan, I was freaked out by them at first, but honestly, after a few tries with a washlet, I think you'll change your mind. Imagine eating a chocolate bar in the summer and getting chocolate all over your hands. Yeah, a dry paper towel isn't going to make you feel clean. But if you had never had access to a sink, you might think a paper towel was good enough.
    Besides the water jet feature, there are also heated seats. After using my washlet for a few weeks in my apartment, I decided it was a needless function and turned it off - I had gone my entire life without it, right? The next morning I sat my tush on an ice cold toilet seat and the shock practically sent my heart up my throat. I keep that function switched on now.
    The argument that it's a waste of water... it's not. It's a simple, low intensity jet of water that most people stream for less than 10 seconds. The washlet uses very little electricity to heat the water and seat.

    I don't have access to a bidet right now, so I just wet a piece of toilet paper and use that to clean myself. We have a septic system so it's not quite as bad for sewage. Not ideal, but American houses from the 80s were built in such a way that makes standalone bidets impossible to add, and fancy in seat ones are not as easy to come by, or as cheap as you stated. The best option is a hand-held and activated spray nozzle you would install next to your toilet by using a T junction pipe between the wall and the toilet tank.

    In Italy each and every home is equipped with at least one bidet. In case of multiple bathrooms usually only one goes equipped with one.
    We don't use it all the times: it's mostly there to ensure you that you will get out of that toilet cleaner than before, no matter what (Dumb & Dumber bathroom scene anyone?).
    It's also seen as a faster alternative to taking a shower but bidet-ting without cleaning with toilet paper first is seen as gross here.
    Bidet is used very frequently before and after every intercourse (at least with your girlfriend/fiancee) and no, I'm not germophobic: everyone of my engaged friends does this unless they're too drunk.

      Which is the best and why? Obviously those with the VERTICAL stream and specially the KO BIDET, because: It is 1. cheap 2. Simple 3. Easy installed (3 min) and easily used 4. Durable (5ys warrantee). 5. It never leaks. 6. Safely and easily disinfected by each user.
      Thanks to their VERTICAL stream: 1. They are 100% effective 2. Act exactly to the needed area, so: use less water, less t. paper for drying, the cold feeling is easily accepted. 3. There is not splashing around 4. There is not microbe harboring, as the warm water does. 6. There is not filthy water pushing towards uro-genitalia. 7. Faster.

  • @modestoca25
    @modestoca25 7 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    There's a few things I'd worry about with a bidet....one, doesn't it splatter poop all over? 2, you're not using soap, so, you're technically just rinsing off which really isn't getting clean per se. 3, it would take up more room in a bathroom and many bathrooms in homes couldn't fit a bidet. 4, how do you dry off? More toilet paper? 5, I could just imagine how nasty public bathrooms would be with bidets and people pooing or peeing in them and throwing garbage in them that won't flush.

    • @wezul
      @wezul 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Point #1 is my thought too. Women are taught to ALWAYS ALWAYS wipe from front to back, to avoid moving any fecal matter towards the vagina and urethra. Spraying water from the back of the toilet seat towards the butt would just allow water to trickle forward and get in the vaginal area. I don't see how it could possibly NOT do that, since the vagina and urethra are lower than the butt in most female toilet postures. That's the only reason I am squiked out about using a bidet!

    • @wezul
      @wezul 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      +Paul Girardin - not so much smearing shit around, as wiping it off. While it's true that there is still bacterial residue that remains, most people are competent enough to wipe thoroughly enough to prevent "skid marks" in their underwear. Skid marks are an indicator of insufficient wiping, not a side-effect of wiping in general.

    • @TheLordoftheRavens
      @TheLordoftheRavens 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Sapphire But why not at least use a combination of toilet paper and a bidet? Like first wipe and then rinse any residue off with water? I can definitely see the benefits of a bidet, although I personally don't have one.

    • @wezul
      @wezul 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +TheLordoftheRavens - As I've said elsewhere, even after using TP, there are still fecal bacteria on the anus. Given the posture one must assume in order to aim the stream of water at the anus, such a posture puts the vaginal area lower than the anus. Therefore, water could potentially dribble forward, carrying bacteria with it. When this kind of bacteria makes its way to the vaginal area, painful infections ensue. This is why women are taught from a young age to wipe from front to back, and never touch the vaginal area with anything that has touched the anal area, unless the anal area was cleaned with soap and water beforehand. (Assuming only casual contact with the anus, and no penetration.)
      This isn't a problem when using a hand to apply soap and water in the shower, because one can clean the anal area, rinse the soap thoroughly, and then clean the vaginal area with soap, to ensure any bacterial contamination is washed away. A mere splash of water will not ensure all bacteria is removed, and as I said, could easily carry the bacteria forward. So if I used a bidet, I would have to use my hand and soap to thoroughly clean front and back, which is just as easily done by hopping in the tub for a minute, should the need arise.
      Now, it's totally possible that I am mistaken, and a woman could potentially clean the anus with a bidet without contaminating the vaginal area. (And without using a hand to apply soap and water.) I am just having a hard time imagining how this could be possible, which is why I asked.

    • @Deere55
      @Deere55 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The pictures show the person sitting on the bidet in the opposite direction of how you sit on a toilet. You face the wall. Therefore the vagina would be out of the line of fire from the water, as the water would be traveling from front to back, same as the direction of wiping you describe. I've never used a bidet though, it may still splash some.

    American here! One Christmas I thought I'd be funny and picked up 3 bidets for white elephant gift exchanges. After a rather poor response from the 2nd exchange, guy was legit upset he got a gag gift, I decided to go with something else for the 3rd.
    So I ended up with a bidet. Naturally I installed it right away and as awkward as it is, it's great. Less TP needed and a cleaner feeling overall. If I could do it over I'd get one with a hot water hook up as well. Ground temp water is a little cold down there.
    When I tell people how awesome they are and how everyone should have one they get a little weird. However, 90% of people that visit my home admit to trying it out and loving it. It's kind of a weird dynamic where it's almost taboo to talk about, but most Americans will give it a shot if it's present.

      it would not. Warm water is comfortable and relaxing, and once you're done, it's a great feeling getting up that you're squeaky clean down there. Your underwear is thus cleaner, and the best part of it - it does facilitate better ad-hoc sex with your partner at any time of the day. Genitals are clean, and all kinds of sex play can follow without inhibitions because of "smelly" stuff.

      Northern Downpour That's different though, isn't it? As I understand it, a bidet has more force than a showerhead. Not to mention, a showerhead flows down, while a bidet shoots up. Unless you stick your showerhead in between your asscheeks when you shower, you're not getting a lot of power there.

I am now renovating another house because we moved. Part of my renovation is installing new Toto brand toilets with very fancy washlets. I am even adding the special outlets next to the toilets to power them, upstairs and downstairs. They are magical. Thank you Japan. I love you.
