Birds can wash their nether regions, if you don't like a natural odour... |

If I had to move back home I'd have to get one installed (or a squirter). I feel very uncomfortable if I don't wash after pinching one out.

In Eastern Europe everyone has a bidet.
The advantages are that you can wash your feet and people out there use to it clean themselves after using the toilet (bit weird in the Western world).
Disadvantages - it's a bit of a novelty and you hardly use it apart from that. If you want to wash your hands you use the sink, if you want to have a wash you have a bath/shower. It's trapped half way between the two and doesn't fit in either world.

Why not just perch on the sink and use a flannel ?

Had a bidet in my hotel bathroom on a holiday many many years ago, got massively drunk and was really hungover when maid came into clean room, she gave me a filthy look and a little later I realized why, I'd taken a huge dump in the bidet in my drunken confusion, not my finest hour  |

Well, you lot haven't convinced me either way
I do like the idea of a 'fresher' feel after a dump - more than mere paper can offer which sometimes feels like you're just sliding a skid mark up and down your arse.
It's not really the sort of thing you can test drive either

RIMMER: Holly, as the Esperantinos would say, "Bonvolu alsendi la
pordiston? Lausajne estas rano en mia bideo!" (Thumbs his chin at
HOLLY) And I think we all know what that means.
HOLLY: Yeah, it means, "Could you send for the hall porter? There
appears to be a frog in my bidet."

I think bidets are great! Got used to having one while living in Italy - and they're extremely handy for quickly washing hot/sweaty/dusty feet... You can also leave handwashing to soak in them without taking up any sinks or basins, and of course there are the uses already mentioned.
I'd love to have one here but there's no space in our bathroom.
If we ever manage to get an ensuite put in, I'm definitely getting a bidet as part of the suite!

Yeah it is, book yourself into a Holiday Inn for a night, just make sure to check the room has a bidet among the facilities. |
