I was taking my daily mid-morning poop today and while I was wiping, I thought, I wonder how most people wipe.

I tend to wipe while standing up cause it’s more comfortable and allows for more cheek-spreaditivity.

So, I beg the question: How does most of Lemmy wipe? Do you wipe while standing up or do you wipe while sitting down? Why?

    Better question is do y’all wipe from the front or the back? I always do front cuz I don’t have to try and wiggle my hand between the seat and my ass or scoot to the edge. I’m looked at like I’m crazy whenever somebody says “ew who wipes from the front?”

      Bro what. That means your tissue can possibly skim your taint and/or balls. Hard no. And if you’re a woman, that could lead to infection.

        See I hear this argument all the time and I don’t get it, I just don’t wipe up onto my taint, it’s not too hard to avoid

      Same, from the front. Done it that way my entire life and I tried from the back once, just can’t do it.

      That said, I’m teaching my daughter to do it from the back because for woman there’s hygiene reasons to do it that way.
