I've traveled enough that I recognized what this was for. It is an economical add on to your toilet known as a bidet. While in New York and Europe, I've seen these but have never been quite sure how to use it. Since I was getting a massage, which is pretty intimate anyway, I decided to give it a go. As expected, my....ummm...."butt" got a spray of water similar to sticking your "butt" under the faucet. Hmmm. Pretty good aim there but then I am left with a wet and dripping "butt". So I got the toilet paper and wiped as one would for fear of not wiping and leaving a wet area on my pants or such. But if you have ever tried to use toilet paper in water, the two have a personality conflict of epic proportions. So then I am left trying to make sure I haven't left any wet toilet paper crumbs behind because......massage. I would simply die to leave butt crusties on the table or otherwise. I kind of giggled to myself feeling like a UTAHN (alas uncultured) and really honestly wondered the point of the whole process because now my hands feel quite unfresh (yes I washed my hands).
I was part way through my massage. Ellie leaned down to my ear and asked if I happened to notice the new addition to the toilet! I told her indeed I did. She had never heard of it and really questioned the sanitary process required for a publicly used toilet. I did explain that in theory, it is sanitary and no one's butthole should ever touch the apparatus so she is probably safe. We did both laugh and wonder what/why someone would think about adding this to the spa toilet...or anywhere.
I am sure it is because I am uncultured and for the life of me, I can't understand how it could be used with more finesse'. So if you can fill me in, please let me know.
Very funny description of using this bidet. Exactly what my reaction was when we first added a bidet to our toilet but now it is taken for granted.
