LOL.
well, i use water and soap after i poo-po. to wash my butt and to wash my hands too.
but when i am in a public place - i know it's hard to use water when people are around waiting online and not all comfort rooms are provided with that "certain hose" (small hose connected in the toilet seat - when i was in UAE - they all have this small hose connected for you to clean your you know (LOL) and i am very impressed because i don't have to fetch water and i don't see a lot here in the philippines -except in some hotels though)for you to clean your butt.
i know i am being silly. i just wanna know your preference!
happy mylotting, everyone! =)9 people like this

This is a very funny and extraordinary topic..haha! well, when I "poopoo", I use water and a soap rather than tissue paper because I feel cleaner that way. The fibers in the tissue paper have the tendency to stick into your butt. so gross!

In America we wipe our butts with toilet paper and if it's messy we might use a wipe or wash cloth afterwards, I don't want to speak for the majority of people but I think that most Americans use just that, toilet paper!

Like many others who replied in this discussion before me, I also use soap and water to wash after a poo-poo. I am more comfortable doing the "deed" at home so I make it a point to clear my system of waste matters before heading anywhere out of the house. In case I need to do it out of my comfort zone, I use lots of wet tissues or just plain tissue, (whew)!

nicely said, stargazer.
and yes, i do agree with you. whenever i feel like doing the poo-poo. i hold it until i get home so that i could also have the convenience of letting it all out. ahahahaha!!!

you guys made my day. =) cheers to everyone!

hi, jordan! do you happen, by chance, to have a sensitive stomach?
coz i do have too that's why i am very choosy with what to eat. i am very careful not to poo-poo in public because there are a lot of inconvenience. =)

Hi totallyundecided, this discussion of yours is very funny.Anyway, for how years I've been using water and soap. It just I'm not contented with tissue paper only, but that's when I'm at home. But for emergency purposes that I need to Poo, you know here in the Philippines its not totally high technology so I prefer to used tissue paper. But when I get home, I wash it again..

Well, we usually use toilet paper here in our place. I really could not imagine myself using just water to clean my U KNOW... hehe. I think it seems a little groce using my bare hands with water to clean it. I actually never even had that idea that some people do that. hehe. I think its kinda weird for me to do that and i really have not tried that before. hehe.

Hehe, water and soad for me. I am not comfortable with using tissue paper. I don't want my poo scraped on my butt. No way! Lol! It happened to me once where i have no choice but to use the tissue paper. I was in a mall in Alabang where my stomach crumbled after eating at McDonald's. I went straight to the male restroom then dumped my poo. I went home afterwards to wash my butt.

Hahaha this is the coolest topic I ever have read! And now I am responding to it. Well for me I always prefer water over tissue or toilet paper because nothing cleans more than the power of water lol! I never tried using tissue to clean the you know but I have always used water. Luckily I have tried only once using a public toilet when I had poo-poo and that was in our office. There was no one in the bathroom and the cubicles are all empty. There is a hose connected from the wall so there is no problem using water. I am thankful because I always have the call of nature at home and never when I am outside.

ahahaha! that's very convenient of your office to have a hose around connected to the faucet.
and yes, i do agree. though we're still not used with using the toilet paper but for us who has used water to clean our you know since we started our day in earth, we still go for the water. toilet paper is the plan b. LOL

It might sound a little gross but this it my habit, if the poo poo is normal, dry, I just use toilet paper to clean, if it is gross and wet, I make the toliet paper damn to wipe. Hope it didn't sound digusting to you! Happy mylotting!

I use water, soap and tissue if i'm at home. I use water and soap then tissue to wipe it dry. when i public toilet, i always use wet tissue wipes and dry tissue. I am just not comfortable just using tissue and if ever its the only one available, i would always feel icky afterward. I keep imagining some things are still left there that the tissue wasn't able to get. LOL!

No toilet paper for me. i prefer to use water and soap. I don't feel comfortable unless I wash. I feel cleaner that way. if i am forced to use a toilet paper, i will wash the moment i reach home. I feel it is all sticking to my underwear and makes me feel uncomfortable.

definitely water and soap. tissue alone could not clean your butt and for sure would leave some smell. but if you are in a public toilet, most of the time it is impossible to clean up with water and soap so you've got to settle with tissue. but i always bring with me wet tissues (baby wipes) so it would feel a lot cleaner than a dry regular tissue.

my mom used to gave me supplies of baby wipes but they're always with a container so i never bring them alone with me.
i just leave them to dry up in the house. LOL

LOL...HAHA what a topic,
I use water and soap because i think thats the best way to "CLEAN" after a poopoo..hehe, in our country i think almost everyone uses water and soap. and I don't use public toilets,..LOL i wait until i get home or go home immediately. I don't like going to public toilets. But unless there is soap and water available that is.

but i did it once - i was 10 and i was in mall. worst, it was sunday and a lot of ladies are wating. good thing i was 10 then. but still i felt embarassed.
