ive seen those toilets around my area and always thought �i don�t care how cool it is, i�m still uncomfortable with the idea of shooting water up me bum. ill keep my toilet paper� so ive never used until last night at a restaurant near my apt. these bidets i seen in korea are electronic and built into the toilet and called �washlets�. when ur done shtting u press a button and a spayer arm extends out into the toilet (with different aim for boys and girls) then u can select from a number of buttons how hard, long, hot u want ur azz to be pounded for. i really liked it in the oscillating mode as gyrating stream of warm water it emit stimulated my azz (i even detected some homosexuality in me). generally once this is done its common to wipe ur bottom once with toilet paper but more to dry it or simply press the dry button to blowdry it, so ur underwear isn�t all soaked. korea has made amazing advances in toilet technology (not to mention automobiles, phones, washin machines, refrigerators� ) over the USA. heated seats, programmable bidets, blow drying, even deodorizing� that goes on over and over again and makes it hard to leave the toilet.

I got one of those babies in my apartment. I barely go through any toilet paper now. Japan has had these things forever.

Bidets!! And they're originally French. Although the French just used conventional plumbing to create an upwards jet. The Japanese made them all electrical and, well, much better!!

I've had one for over two years. I don't think I can ever go back to dry toilet paper.

If you know how to use a spanner/monkey wrench then you could install it yourself. I installed mine. A 300,000 won Novita (by Samsung).

Those never seem to clean well enough. Too many ... um... hanging chads are left.

And the thought of that dirty water nozzel, which has been drenched in watered-down poo from everyone else who has used it, then shoots a stream of it up at me... ummm....... yuck!

As the nozzle retracts it self-cleans. I've never noticed any bits of poo on the nozzle. I give it a clean with a toilet brush now and then. To be sure. I've never had hanging dingleberries and the ultimate yuckiness of skidmarks is now gone from my life!

Do you think those pernickety Japanese would use the things if they weren't hygenic?

......and....most of all.....it just feels great!

Can't you guys just do us all a favor and agree with me?

Now you're going to make me take a photo of the poopey bidet nozzle in the office floor bathroom, aren't you.

Eeeeew!

And FYI blynch -- I had one in my last apartment. It even had a blower feature to dry you off. No joke!

The only times I used it was when I had the craps. It did help with that a bit. But it wasn't as useful as good ol' TP.

Considering our ancestors crapped in the woods and wiped their butts on a leaf, if at all, we have grown pretty desperate to set up a whole thread on the supposed joys of bidet usage. If I had a bidet in Korea, which I don't, I would happily trade it for a genuine cheese sandwich.

so Korea is the first stamp on your passport eh!?
Congrats, look forward to hearing you visit your second country, say maybe Japan? Where you will discover they use chopsticks!
Safe travels Blynchy!

You are going to compare a public washroom with the washroom in your own place? That's disgusting.

Anyways, mine is always clean as it doesn't sit right below your ass when it is going. It shoots at an angle so it doesn't get covered in shhit. Mine also has the blower, what a great thing.

Oh yeah, and mine was on the toilet in my apartment when I moved it.
