To wonder how you actually use a bidet?

[Bearbehind]

I can honestly say I have never used a bidet and it's not really the kind of thing you see other people using and learn from them, so how do you actually use one?

Hang on. So you DON'T use it for your arse, just your lady bits?

What about men?

at 'arse towel'. Hadn't actually thought about the implications of drying your arse (well, or lady bits, depending on what the answer to my question is) and then hanging the towel back up for someone else to use. Or vice versa

God, I'm glad someone asked this. I've always wondered about bidets but you don't really bring it up in casual conversation, do you? And the one household I know that has one, I think they already regard me as a bit of a weirdo, so I could never ask them.

Used to shave my legs in ours.

As a teenager, was violently sick in one in France.

A sort of posh, self cleaning, sick bowl then. Still quite want one....

I used it for rinsing out the potty on holiday. I'm never sure where to rinse out the potty. Bath or sink? Both seem a bit gross. I'd get one just for potty rinsing but ds will stop using it very soon.

Well you can use it for your arse. But that's not it's main design. Men don't use it. They can wash their cock in the sink.

you don't hang the towel back up, unless you are the only lady in the house i suppose.

We used it as a wine cooler when we went on our 6th form French trip - until we got our alcohol confiscated, that is.

Just get one of the loo seat bidet, you can fit them to any loo, and you press a button and it jet washes your under carriage, some come with an air dryer so it dies off any water.

I have become rather attached to ours but then it has a directable tap

I have wondered this for years. Seemingly bidet owners are coy about explaining the use. Had one when we moved house but it was broken so was non the wiser.

They are very good if you've got noro and are having a 'both end' moment. That's why they are best near the loo.

Which bit do you sit on? There isn't a seat,so do you hover? Really over thinking this one

I used to have one when I lived abroad. Was quite old though - no jets/adjustable squirty things. Used it a bit like a sit down sink. Good for washing bits pre/post sex, after no.2 and during periods. Little shelf for your favourite 'intimate wash' (mine was brand named 'Chilly' ) and separate towel.
Great for bathing newborns, soaking stained clothes and rinsing feet too.

Maybe you need one of those charming towels with arse/face printed on opposite ends?! Always wondered "why"??

Very handy in the middle of the night in my great grandmother's big spider house with the nearest loo five minutes through the scary darkness

I really want a bidet and I love using them when I stay in hotels. They are nice for cooling off your sweaty privates in hot weather, and keeping everything clean enough to pass scrutiny from the Bottom Inspectors from Viz in between showers.

I haven't the money room for one, though, so I have a travel bidet instead. It's great! It's nice to give your bits a proper soak sometimes, I think it cleans better than water just passing over them in the shower. I bet it would be really soothing to use if you had piles too, or after having a baby. I might give myself piles just to test this theory out.

Sizzle - you face forward, straddle it and sit down, with your legs akimbo.

Scarlet - "remember avocado bathroom suites?"

Indeed I do. I still have one.

I'm hoping the whirligig of fashion will hurry up and make it retro or vintage chic or something

The bidet is currently used for storing magazines and loo rolls

you actually sit on it. either with your bum or your ladybits facing the tap depending on what needs more attention.

They're only for women?

[mind blown]

Rubbish. they are not for women only.

And, riffy I have heard they are excellent for piles or other painful conditions of the bum.

But but but...

[really confused]

My friends was mostly used as a luxury barbie swimming pool, until her mum found out. Neither of her parents would give us an explanation of its proper use.
