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.
4-6
-2?
Might be someone mad because of this.
Do you have a square to spare? All I need is a square
I don’t have a square to spare!
You can’t spare a square?!
It really depends. Both on how much I peed, and also how decent the TP is. Basically however many it takes not to saturate the TP, and not get urine/blood/mucus on my hands. Could be three, could be a ton.
I’ll use a TON more during my period, as even with a cup in, blood finds it’s way onto my skin and then the flow of the urine helps spread it to every nook and cranny.
Another thing to take into account is discharge. That definitely takes extra TP, it’s thicker and a few squares won’t hold up.
TL;DR whoever gives a consistent amount of squares is either lying or has a much nicer vagina than I do
+1 to this answer. If you don’t have a vagina, it’s probably difficult to understand how much various liquids play a part in every bathroom trip. And having a series of liquidy folds to clean instead of a hose.
The hose can be sneaky though. See, you think you are finished, you relax a bit more drops out… Now you are really done, you wipe the last little bit. Good to go.
But fuck you, no, sometimes there is a bit half way up that didn’t come out, you get to the door and now the last bit let’s go. Now you are uncomfortable and a little embarrassed.
Does it happen every time, no, but it is an ever present option…
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?
Some sort of perineal drier? There’s probably bidets with something like that built-in.
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.
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 😆
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.
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.
I slap it against the door frame as I leave the bathroom.
I used tooo … Now I have discovered that I can just shove it in the blow drier works better 😉
What an image. But explains the penis level dents I see in toilet door frames sometimes.
Wow! Congrats on the door frame denter. You could probably make some money with tae kwon do style board breaking videos.
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.
I think an important metric is a bidet.
I definitely use more than I need. #Privileged
Is anyone else infuriated by the number of ‘I don’t have a vagina BUT’ posts?
Like let me speak for the woman in my life. Let me provide my opinion. I know I wasn’t asked BUT…
Jesus just go die in a hole. Let women speak for themselves.
I don’t have a vagina yet BUT…
I’d like to learn from current owners by interacting with this post.
Rawr.
Personally I don’t see anything wrong with that at all. Commenting even if you don’t have a vagina is absolutely not the same as speaking for everyone that does have one. In fact I haven’t found a single comment that speaks for anyone but themselves.
If it’s absolutely critical that only people with a vagina comments, OP should probably have put the question on a gendered ask community instead of the main one.
Some people just like to engage in the conversation about something they think is interesting even if it wasn’t explicitly asked for. It’s also interesting to compare delta-TP between genders.
Telling people to die seems a bit extreme for such a non issue.
1000 people dead in Alaska because they replied to a post about wiping piss
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.
I’m guessing you misread the post. If not, how do digestive problems affect peeing?
My digestive problems are so bad that, these days, almost every single time I pee, I also have to poop at least a little bit. It’s just super.
Can I suggest a bidet wand? Super easy to install and great for the messy poo.
I appreciate it, but I have tried bidets a couple of times and not liked them. I’ll probably try one again at some point.
Hope you get well
Appreciated, but learning to live with it is the saner course.
Penis owner here. Occasionally I’ll use 1-2, or part of a paper towel (or whatever else I can find first).
In 30+ years of peeing, I still can’t figure out why it sometimes stays under my foreskin, then makes a wet spot on my pants two minutes later. Guess I’m just bad at peeing.
Gotta pump the gooch my dude.
There’s a bit of a u-bend in the urethra right about where the scrotum meets the taint. Use a finger to push up and slightly forward to pump that last bit of pee out.
Gotta pump the gooch my dude.
I have nothing to add. I just like this as a saying.
I wash like civilized human.
Do you dry yourself afterwards? If so, how?
Water dries quickly. No need to overthink.
When I shit, I bidet and use three squares.
4 rolls. Amateurs
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?
3
1, sometimes 2.
Does anyone else have the problem where sometimes a bit of TP sticks to your labia? especially the 1-ply
We do.
augh it’s annoying
And then there’s the toilet paper lint that sticks to various parts…
