So I perhaps naively assumed that like me the world and his uncle wipe their bum while sitting down after going to the loo. I can't remember how long ago it was that I discovered a good friend stands up to wipe and has done ever since she was a child. I still find it hard to get my head round - obviously I'm not talking about a wee here.
She was equally 
that I wipe sitting down.
It occasionally pops into my head and I wonder all over again, is it her or is it me, is standing or sitting more usual, or are there just a whole lot of standers and sitters out there, all oblivious to each others habits?

To be shocked that some people stand up to wipe their bum after going to the loo?

They may say flushable. Just remember that next time you start frothing about them on a beach or in a river.
And another thing. I kind of always thought (not admittedly, that I have given it MUCH thought) that a healthy person does not normally "drip poo"

Some people don't wipe until they're stood up?! And so many people seem to do it that way
My family & I all wipe sitting down. It had never crossed my mind that anybody wouldn't do it this way.
My mind is totally blown
