See i will tell u a short story.

Months ago my dad was ill in hospital. He was old and stooled on himself sometimes, accidentallyof course.

The doctor saw members of my family look after him and clean him up. Of course we love our dad and we dont mind. Doctor told us to use gloves whenever he stools on himself and we are cleaning him up

I mean that was doctor's advice, based on scientific evidence

Whether u see it or not, the faeces will lodge into ur nails.

There have been numerous research on this. On office keyboards, on phones, on door knobs, on lift buttons, fecal matter has been found. Of course, these are invisible to human eyes

I will search for one of those research and post later here.

Ma'am, you sound like a responsible and respectful clean person. I do not claim i am cleaner than u. We are only exchanging ideas and i love to exchange ideas with people like u.


You can't compare the situation of your dad to everyday stooling na, you guys packed his poo and cleaned him up, that will definitely be messy, it can't be compared to smears after excretion, its different, but let's agree to disagree

@scientific evidence, when you see the link, pls post it here

@last paragraph, thank you.

Water is more hygienic anytime, any day.
It leaves you feeling completely clean and fresh down there.

See this below. I saw it on a quick google search.

After reading it, ask yourself how the fecal matter reached those places. That is why for me, tissue it is, and in the morning. And i shower afterwards

Just seeing this, I'll read it up later

Are you saying all your life, you've never poo in the evening or mid-day? Or you've not had cases of emergency poo before that can hook you anywhere?

It's simple, cleaning the butt with water and washing your hands with soap afterwards is the hygienic thing to do, that is what I do all the time cos it makes me feel fresh in my butt and hands

Salmonella and other bacteria cannot also be removed when using tissue paper, but there is a chance it can be 98% removed with water, besides, not everyone excretes then shower immediately after

Using tissue is not hygenic cos it can never wipe all the feaces off, and wiping can also extend to parts of your down below which can cause bad smell, so using water is the best.

If I may chip in something.

First,it depends on the type of tissue you use.

Second,your finger nails are major hosts to germs.

Third,you clean your butt backwards. Not forward(to avoid germs coming in contact with the vagína)

Fourth,not everyone takes their bath after. Which might be another disadvantage of using the tissue paper.

Fifth,bacterias can't be removed with tissue paper at all "wink

Sixth,many don't even use soap during the act of washing. Now,another disadvantage of washing instead of using tissue. At least,while taking your bath with soap and water,you wash every area of your body.

Emergency is Emergency. Even u that like to use water, if Emergency hook u and there is no water, u will manage.

Anyway, i poop twice a day normally. Morning and at night. And thats when i also shower.

But if Emergency hook me, i know say na Emergency. I will not go and come and kill myself because of Emergency

See, i hate using any toilet that is not mine, in my own home. But when Emergency occurs, i have to use whatever is available

I dont want to tell u my Emergency stories so as not to spoil ur day, in case u are d type that such stories make uncomfortable

So you know using tissue paper has its disadvantages, and you make it seem like there is none, wehdone cheesy

Yes I agree not everyone uses soap when washing their hands, same with those who use only tissue paper, the hygienic thing to do when one uses the loo is to wash both hands with soap and water afterwards, in fact, hot water and dettol should be included, but who has time for that grin we come in contact with unhygienic things in our everyday lives, but let's stay on topic, we can't be 100% hygienic no matter how much we try

So the ideal method should be, tissue paper first, water second, soap and water to wash hands afterwards.

Pls dont tell, I can already imagine

For me I think I've had like one or two emergencies cos I'm always careful of what I eat, especially when I know I'll be stepping out of my house for a long period of time.

I poo when poo hook me abeg, I can't control my bowel movement, but I poo everyday.

You are very spot on, I think there is a name for those who are extremely obsessed on being 100% clean, like a disorder or something.

Ahan

I made you agree,tissue paper first, water second (with soap please),another soap and water to wash hands afterwards.


YES. No one is 100% hygienic




I was meaning to ask,why is it that whenever I make use of the toilet, whether it's just opening the toiler door, peeing or any other thing,
I always become restless if i don't get to wash my hands.

It would feel as though things are crawling all through my body.
But,immediately water touches my hands(even without soap),I feel relief.

Are there things truly crawling on my body??

Been asking though but,no tangible answer.

Quality tissue isn't affordable??








Actually, there are some tissues that leave fragile particles on your butthole after you're done wiping.
And,there are some that are durable and strong just like the normal writing paper.


I still don't get the one being referred to.

Why would you want to make use of water?? undecided



It's quite unhygienic to say the least.
Some go as far as eating with that same hand,immediately after the act. Bathing after you're done using tissue is far better.

Ayama! That place stinks right now. Water only.

This is the last reserve I'll be commenting.

Simple methods

Poo,clean with tissue first, take your bath(do that with soap and water undecided)

Poo,wash butt with soap and water(embarassed),wash hands with soap and water

Poo,wash butt with soap and water(embarassed),dry with tissue, wash hands with soap and water.

You already know mine from the three listed above.

All in all, do the one you find comfortable enough.

Tissue and wash.

You should have a shower after your no 2. It’s a must.
Total body wash not just the bidet kind of wash.

OCD for good toilet hygiene. That’s very good OCD. Some people have that.

Toilet, tissue or toilet roll, jump in the shower and complete the ritual with soap/ shower gel and water.

Come out feeling fresh and clean.

I'm team water, though. Perhaps because I do it in my house only, and shortly before bath. For the tissue paper team, they are the ones known for poo stains in their pants. Tissue can never be as effective as water. My thought

There is no way u will put ur hand in there and ur nail will not go with ur fingers?

Even if u dont keep long nails, u do have nails. Try wash bitter leaf with ur low nails and tell me if ur nails dont change colour afterwards.

No matter how low ur nails are, shit will lodge between ur nails and ur finger, and also that place where the nail join the finger at the bottom of ur nails.

Really gross. I feel like vomiting even thinking of the amount of shit those who wash with water are carrying around.

That is why i hate eating out. I prefer whats cooked in my home.
grin cheesy
I'm thinking about totally stopping handshakes.

Wtf!!! How'd any sane human use water and their hands to wash smelly sh1t?! What a mess!

I want to believe it's a culture thing.

Mostly take my bath after the whole cake baking.

But,my tissue roll comes first. Before packing feaces with your right hand.

I mean wtf!!!

I can just imagine people poking their hands in their asses full of leftover sh1t and cleaning it with water!!! Madness!!

I mean even the people who choose to wash their ass in Western countries(Which I believe is a really insignificant percentage), according to the OP and as shown in the picture above, use a kind of faucet that pushes water out forcefully on their arse so they don't get to use their hands.

Perhaps it's a cultural thing.
