How do you use a bide? You poop on toilet, fill bidet with water, sit in it, pull the plug out, clean the bidet? Here a little hand shower next to the toilet is more common.

Seems like none of the people in the comments actually knows how to use a bidet. I'm Italian and this is incredible to me. It's not toilet paper vs bidet. We use both. First you wipe and when you finish wiping you just go to the bidet and wash your bum with a specific soap. It's really that simple and towels aren't dirty when you finish drying yourself. It's not one or the other, no one skips toilet paper before washing here. It's seriously mind-blowing to me.

I'm American and have a bidet attachment on my toilet.

Bi, so when you’re done, you just pull up your pants on a wet a*s ?

the first time I saw one was when I was living in Italy. Girlfriend had to tell me what it was. Blew my mind.

Bidet seats rather than bidets are popular in Japan &, on that basis, South Korea & Taiwan should be on the map

We do have them they just arent commonly used

What a collection of nonsense i'm reading. Bidet does not replace toilet paper. You clean your butt with toilet paper. You move to bidet, you adjust hot/cold water temperature like any other sink in your home, you wash your butt with desired temperature and soap. You don't take a butt bath in the bidet, water is flushing and drain is open. You dry your clean butt with a small towel arbitrary assigned to butt only. Toilet shower is not more practical, water is cold, toilet seat is smaller than bidet seat and reaching your butt is more difficult, you sprinkle water everywhere because you are using a small shower rather than a small tap. Please keep laughing at bidet, but you are the ones that keep walking all the day with skidding in their underwears.

Hey they forgot the Philippines and a few more Asian countries.

And a great way to wake up in the morning...

I just don't see how they'd work better

They could be using wipes. Still, anything is better than the traditional option of the left hand...

This map is really inaccurate. Some countries don't have separate bidets but have a special handle that works the same. Also some countries have bidets but people dont use them for after pooping

Add to that the use "hand bidets" as a cleansing practice among Muslim, Hindu, and several other religious practitioners. Either the fancier bidet shower jet or a hand vessel, which is popular among the Filipinos according to Jo Koy's special.
