Has anyone, hmmm, tried one?

Are we Americans missing out on something?

No TP neccessary?

The jet must be pretty powerful then.

But you do use a lot of towels.

They're for washing socks in, aren't they?

I have one in the home I purchased several years ago, and never used it...neither did the wife. The worst memory of this "cleaning" device was on a tour of Jordan in 1996 on the way to Petra. Our travel guide stopped at a paradox...a real structure; a decent-looking restaurant in the desert, near the tourist area of Petra. After crossing the Allenby border point, and driving for hours after nothing but desert, this was a welcome site. The food was great (always eat with your right hand!), and after several courses, I excused myself to use the "restroom".

The "stalls" had nothing but a porcelain surround for the dumper-hole...and on the ground, laying in "water" were water nozzels for cleaning...no TP. No soap to wash hands.....

I returned to our table, and as the immaculately-dressed waiter returned to our table, asking if we desired anything else....I stared at his hands, and said no. Oh, no...please!

It doesn't have to be Old Faithful. Just nice and warm. At least that was my experience at the Home Expo showroom.

One of my ex-girlfriends told me that they were great for masturbating with. Sort of like those pulsating shower-massagers.

Bidet

A fixture similar in design to a toilet that is straddled for bathing the genitals and the posterior parts.

Paging Diemos.....

In the archive he describes them, sounds nifty.

Like the the Seashells vs wadded up tree-pulp

A reference to the movie Demolition Man.

What, you don't know how to use the three seashells?

Had one in the apt I stayed at in Paris... I used to piss in it, made my girlfriend madder than hell.

Great in theory, but I was always afraid I would fall and get the nozzle lodged in my ass.

When I was in France my hotel room didn't have a toilet but it had a bidet. Guess what the bidet got used for?

No way. Who wants to use a powerwasher to spray the mud off your hands? Too much shit flying everywhere.

Perhaps that is why the French like them???

Perhaps Americans are too immature and inhibited for such a device.

I encountered the high-tech toto washlet in Japan, it saved my ass, so to speak, when I got the skitters from some bad sushi. Worked great.

Ass Douche? No tanks! Now hook one up to a solvent tank from a parts washer, and every man on ARFCOM would buy one! Just think, you can clean your small gun parts while on the shitter, that beats a magazine any day!

The TOTO is a wonderful idea. Its now on "the list". My wife already thinks i'm crazy, just wait until she sits down on the toilet and meets with a high-pressure jet of water up her ass! :)

They are common in Denmark..all of Europe, I bet

Never saw one in Spain...but then again, Spain is Europe's Mexico......at least according to the Phrench.

If I need a shower fresh feel I'll just get those adult wipes (Like the baby wipes, except for your ass)

I know, when I build a house soon, I'm installing one!

Washin' (no paper) keeps butt healthy and more pleasant for the Mrs. when she decides to polish yer knob ..... LOL

Mature? Maybe so. I guess we wouldn't want children accidentally sitting on a dildo clad French butt washer!

Bidets... That magical artifact that allows us to get our asses really clean after taking a shit...
I've used one today as a matter of fact.
And I made a girl use it too before certain activities...
