Folks with vaginas, I’m conducting some family comparative analysis and I’d like to know how many standard pieces of toilet paper do you use when wiping after a pee. I posted some comments with options to upvote if you like.
I can answer for my wife! She said three folded, when it’s our normal tp, Charmin. Two extra for other brands.
That’s all it takes with her configuration to be dry. I’ll vote on the comments, but since she gave more than a number, and it was variable, figured that might help too.
Fwiw, I make sure to give things an extra squeeze with a few pieces myself. Not a fan of late drips in my drawers. Pee, shake, paper & gentle squeeze. Then wash hands.
I know I’m not the target audience, but when I’m at home I rinse my stick
Same. Just hold it against the inside of the bowl and flush. Badabingbadaboom
I love that for you
Sink pissers unite
7+
It’s stupid if you edit the amount.
Edit: this used to be 5+. So view the other amounts OP edited with this thought in mind
I edited it at the very beginning before there was any activity because I realized it’s less ambiguous to have non overlapping intervals. Started with 1-3, 3-5, 5+. Settled on 1-3, 4-6, 7+. Of course it’s stupid to change if there’s any significant voting already. I’m asking because I’d like to know what people do. I wouldn’t want to render useless what precious few responses I get.
Do you have a square to spare? All I need is a square
I don’t have a square to spare!
I stick my tip in the toilet water and swish it around. Unrelated but it stings when I pee.
Thank you for your service.
I do not have a vagina, but I have noticed that by myself 1 roll of tp will last 2-4 weeks, but when I have feminine company it becomes more like 1+ roll a week.
It’s mind boggling how you need so much more tp than us guys do, not that I blame you cos it’s different down there.
Maybe I’m more concerned that in 10,000 years of civilization no one has developed a better way. We have “spray with water” and “copious amounts of absorbent material”.
Where’s the 3 shells at, people?
Also vaginaless, but I’ll throw in one square as an answer. All the jiggling in the world won’t get rid of that last drop. It’s either TP, or my undies.
I’d go with undies.
I slap it against the door frame as I leave the bathroom.
Wow! Congrats on the door frame denter. You could probably make some money with tae kwon do style board breaking videos.
I used tooo … Now I have discovered that I can just shove it in the blow drier works better 😉
It’s been a long day and I may be a little punchy, but I have tears in my eyes laughing at I write this reply.
You gotta press that spot behind ur balls, kinda moving back to front, and it comes out. This secret arcane knowledge was lost for millenia in my lineage, no longer passed down man to man. A kind stranger on the internet shared it with me.
That’s called a taint squeeze.
Some sort of perineal drier? There’s probably bidets with something like that built-in.
They exist. I think primarily a Japan thing (no surprise…). I havent seen one in person, but seen them for sale or some weird bidet article about all the options you can get. Hot/cold water, his/her’s, blow dry, lights, music, multiple user pre-sets, etc. usually it’s sold as the entire toilet, not an “add-on” option.
I will say that the blow dry option doesn’t really help sufficiently after using the bidet to avoid me wanting to use TP to dry off, but it might be sufficient for lady parts after peeing. Don’t have a vagina personally, so can’t say for sure.
That’s about how i figured it would be…seems like it would be kinda weird to get right, and even then you kinda need that reassurance of a good pat 😆
Yeah, the Toto C2 or whatever micro revision it is this year. Same toilet lid, about $330 ish dollars. Lifechanging for men and women, especially once you realize it has an oscillating mode for washing.
I don’t use TP at all anymore, it’s just there for guests who feel uncomfortable.
At home: 3 squares, folded. At other places with different paper: 4-5, depending on quality. Out and about with the tissue paper that exists in public bathrooms? Maybe the length of my arm.
Not a fan of the 0.5-ply paper they have at work?
I wash like civilized human.
Do you dry yourself afterwards? If so, how?
When I shit, I bidet and use three squares.
Water dries quickly. No need to overthink.
Well, before I had terrible digestive problems, I would typically use four. Three for the initial wipe, and one to make sure everything is dry. Sometimes two to make sure everything is dry.
Now that I have terrible digestive problems, I think it’s more like 10. I should buy stock in Cottonelle.
Can I suggest a bidet wand? Super easy to install and great for the messy poo.
I definitely use more than I need. #Privileged
2 or 3 squares, often folded. If the paper is cheap single ply it might be two or three times the amount.
Feeling wasteful in the between 4 and 6 category. That is, if I am away from home and there is no bidet. That is just what I feel adequately safe/dry with
Two or three, more if my uterine lining is shedding.
