It’s also called a “Muslim toilet” and common in the Middle East. Nowhere near as sophisticated as a Japanese washlet, though.

In Finland they're called "pussy phones"

They're there in most urban Indian toilets as well.

Aka a “Shattaf”

Washlets are the bomb and the favored style here: r/bidets

I would rather use toilet paper than that. Can you imagine the particles on that thing? Everywhere else on the toilet is cleaner than the thing you have to hold.

Do you not wash your hands?

I have one of those! I got it off Amazon. Total game changer.

Wtf of course I do. But you are still possibly spraying other people's fecal matter all over your ass. You are also grabbing something that has other people's fecal matter on it and if you have a cut you could easily get an std.

XD "ass-blaster"

That is a name I haven't heard in a long time.

Now I want to watch Tremors

Ever see the thing about the amount of overspray from normal urination? So bad that your toothbrush that is feet away on the bathroom sink, still gets measurable microscopic particles? But hey don't mind my thoughts on this while you ass blast your poop

Ubiquitous in Finland and occasionally in other European countries. Was one in my modern Lisbon hotel room last week.

Lol no.

Yeah these are good. Also common in Turkey but usually integrated in the toilet.

Civilized nations have bidet's. And the first time a kid sees one and asks what it's for has resulted in some of the finest & funniest family humor ever seen.

At least someone here knows of the Bidet.

My work has them, but the water is far too cold to be pleasant.

We had one to clean off the..solids off kiddo's cloth diapers before washing in the machine. Loved it.

How far up your arse are you sticking it?

I don't understand how freezing cold water, without soap, and using your HAND to clean your dirty anus is a thing.

Edit: I hope you washed your hand (with soap) before you touched your phone to down vote me

If hand spray counts as a bidet, then i agree. Entirely separate bowl on other hand is just huge waste of space.

Am in thailand, can confirm

Very effective

Tell me you've never used one without saying you've never used one.

Lol yes

"all over your ass" "up your arse" Are you able to read correctly?

Tell me you failed in science without saying you failed at science.

Allright pretty princess.

I was told they were French ladies to clean their privates, because they only bathed once a week.

You see, politics is just one big ass blast.

Says the guy claiming you spray feces all over your bum if you use one.

You've decided all of this in your scientific head.

You should hear what people with countries that use them think about using paper to remove poo from your ass.

If you had poop on your wrist, would you grab a kleenex and wipe it off or go run it under a faucet, professor?

Butt you're right. You probably shouldn't use one if your plan is to place it under your poo-smeared inner buttocks shooting directly upward. You might need to put your knuckles in the toilet water to even attempt that.

Someone here failed geometry and physics. It wasn't me.

Came here to post that I've seen them all over Finland (and other parts of Europe, tbh), didn't know that's what they were called there, however. 😂

You use a Shattaf to blast the shitaff.

[or, if your my mum, for washing your hair in the sink.]

Was that supposed to offend me?

How pathetic.

If you haven’t used one and find yourself in Thailand remember to hit it the O at an angle and not direct. The water pressure is usually not too regulated.

Used one for the first time in 2015 and I must report that they are much better than scraping shit off your ass with pieces of paper.

Lived with a Filipino who installed one in the bathroom he was using. Seemed like he installed it wrong though because the blaster pressure was stupid high and the toilet pressure dropped.

Was just odd for me to see and he explained how it’s such a basic thing over there. They used a scoop before that and would scoop water out of the reservoir.

Of course the wikipedia pic is from Finland though :'D I've never tried the separate sink type bidets actually, they seem kinda gross? but life without a pussy phone would be agony!

Really makes sure you clench that butthole and pinch off anything that's up there

“Don’t even get me started on how coddled the modern anus is”

Pretty common throughout South East Asia, not just Thailand

I got one after I went to Thailand

Politics is one big ass-blast.

TIL that the Ass Blaster 9000 is a real product

[removed]

Hahahaha

I hate shitting places that don’t have a bidet (or a version of one). Should be a mandatory part of all toilets.

I've got one.

What are you doing after getting really clean and wet? How to dry yourself?

I mean when your that full of shit(murica politicals) I'm sure the ass Blaster is a must!

Oh, I love cold water on my B-Hole.

They are common on india as well.

I guess it’s common in all countries that use bidets. It’s cheaper and it requires no extra space in the bathroom. Here in Brazil almost any toilet built / retrofitted in the last 20 years will have them. Usually it’s called simply “duchinha” (“little douche”, and the nh is pronounced like the ñ from Spanish, ch pronounced like sh from English).

How do you keep the doodoo from just blasting off everywhere? Do you just use low pressure?

You still have toilet paper

Wife is Vietnamese so I had to get one. Game changer , itchy hole ? What itchy hole ?? Shower fresh every time

Put diaper in the bowl and aim down. We had a "honey bucket" of sorts to bring diapers from toilet to washer

Maybe once there was enough to "spray out" and we just cleaned it up - not like a baby doesn't mean poop on the floor at any given time lol

Doesn't it dissolve like an effervescent tablet on contact with water?

I received one of those for a Christmas present! I still need to get it installed.
