>>4332254It sprays water (hot, cold, warm, whatever you want) on your ass to clean the refuse away. The "shooting water directly up your asshole" is a meme, although you can get models that give you an enema if you want. Most don't.
Before bidet:
>take shit>grab toilet paper>wipe until you see no more streaks, using as many papers as possible until you're satisfied>sometimes you get lucky and have a one-wipe-wonder, otherwise you are going to be dirty all dayAfter bidet:
>take shit>wash with bidet>gently pat dry with a single clothIt's so much better and cleaner and less costly on the paper. Plus you aren't wiping wood fibers directly on your ass. Some bidet models even have pulsating functions, or driers included, etc.
Far superior.
