Page 13 | To be annoyed about Wet Wipes ban

JackiePlace · 2023-04-04T08:50:47+00:00

I have never put them down the toilet, but because too many stupid people do, I will no longer be able to clean my bum hole properly! And don't have a large bathroom so there's no space for a bidet, before anyone suggests it.

I’ve only used about 3 packs of disposable wipes ever since I became a parent because we always use reusables but I find disposables revolting. They just move the poo around and it’s so much harder to get the baby properly clean. Not to mention much easier to end up with poo on your hands. Gross.

Use washable wipes and think of the bloody planet!
Anyone using disposable anything needs a slap quite honestly.

Washable shit wipes...? that is DISGUSTING....

Imagine promoting violence over people using baby wipes LOL

And we're not all obsessed little Gretas with no time on our hands. The planet will be fine so calm down.

You can buy a spritz that you can spray onto toilet roll if you want to do that. FreshX is the one that Sainsbury's sell.

Would that not make the loo roll go all bitty?

Amazing new invention, wet flannel.
plenty at home.
can be carried in a plastic bag or sandwich box if out and about.

will save you money and might even help to save the planet and all the creatures who live on it.

Who knew ????

So we're meant to put shite smeared rags in the washing machine?

The hysterical flat earthers can have at it but I'll have no part of it.

@Crazyshihtzulady Attitudes like yours are the reason the planet is suffering. I work full time, have a two year old and still manage to live as sustainable a life as I can. Some use of plastic will always sadly be necessary but there are lots of little things you can do to cut down on your use of single use plastic that don't cost time or extra money. In some instances they even save money.

I'm annoyed it's taken so long for them to ban them.

This ^^ Plastic free wipes or cheeky wipes all do a perfectly good job for us.

I'm not sure I want to carry shite smeared wipes around with me. Yes I'll use reusables for dirty hands and face.

adriftabroad · 04/04/2023 15:55

The government should clearly provide support and counselling
and maybe a fucking grant for people who cannot wipe their arse.

If your arsehole is getting that messy with every shit, maybe you should consider some more fibre in your diet

That makes NO sense....fibre is what softens your poo. Lol

Do you hold a similar delightfully bonkers view on cloth nappies?

You know, the ones that were used by everyone until a couple of decades ago when a few multinationals decided it would be a good idea to get everyone onto disposable everything so they could make money out of endless consumption of single use items? People saved them up and washed and reused them. What do you think a washing machine does if it doesn't wash things and get them clean?

KimberleyClark · 04/04/2023 16:10

I had no idea so many people use wet wipes to wipe their bums. I’m rather horrified actually.

newnamethanks · 04/04/2023 16:11

Water, for God's sake, clean your bum with water and some tissue. Bloody hell.

Dirtydiesel · 04/04/2023 16:19

"I do understand disability issues and that might necessitate disposable at times, but even then in a lot of cases reusable is better. My grandmother’s care home is exploring minimizing waste options (they use a lot of pads etc for incontinence). If they can, private homes can try too."

So how many adult backsides are you cleaning in your home every day?

Why are so many grown women wiping their bums with flannels, wet wipes, bum guns, bum jugs and bidets? It’s a genuine question, why isn’t toilet roll working for you?

I have a bowel condition. I normally just use loo paper but if I'm having a flare up and doing upwards of 15 shits a day I need something softer. When you're basically just shitting acid and your hole is so sore it's cracked and bleeding paper just exacerbates the pain. I have vomited from the pain of wiping on more than one occasion. I prefer to use reusable wipes personally then pat dry with a soft towel but I know other people with bowel conditions who use water or disposable wipes.
Not to mention the people for whom this is religious or cultural.

I'm annoyed, my son is diabetic and we don't always have access to wash his hands when out.... what am I suppose to use now? All because of some idiots who can't be bothered to put them in the bin. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I really don't care what your personal preferences are.

I will be stocking up on baby wipes.

I used cloth nappies on my twins if you must know, so save your sanctimony and holier than thou attitude.

Washing machines clean sweat, mud and spilled food, not actual shite, well not in my house anyway.

Oh and I use laundry cleanser too! I bet that will make you clutch your pearls in outrage and exasperation.
