Eli5 how are bidets hygienic? You have the ones that attached to your regular toilet seat. I know from experience, because I once took a bladder pain medication that turned my pee neon orange, that when I pee it splashes literally everywhere. And if you’ve ever been in a public bathroom, you know that sometimes people have explosive poop. Now wouldn’t that get on the novel of the bidet?
You also have the ones that are completely separate unit from the toilet. So what do I do there waddle myself over to the bidet with pee dripping from my vag and poop between my butt cheeks? Also I’ve heard, I may be wrong that you are supposed to straddle up a bidet and face the back, so if that’s true do I have to take off my pants? Seems like quite a process to just use the bathroom.
And this is my most wondered about question. Sometimes I get these really sticky poops, and I can tell you for a fact that a jet of water unless incredibly high volume and high speed to the point where it will probably hurt, is not getting that poop off my butt.
So yeah all these questions about how a bidet could actually be hygienic. Obviously I know they are because they are used around the world except for the United States, hence why I’ve never used one

I’ve had a bidet for a couple years now. Specifically, the Luxe Bidet Neo 320 from that South American river store. It’s got hot and cold water, self cleaning, a poo protector for the drop down nozzle and all that. Mine has a temp selection as well as adjustable pressure. Barely open is a soft stream, I would equate it to the flow from a drinking fountain. All the way open it’ll make a 7’ tall arc from the toilet into the bathtub. My fiancée was not amused by this.
For me, the process is sit down/do your business/wipe/spray/wipe and you’re done.
Most of the time, it’s just a convenience. But those alcohol fueled post 3am Taco Bell hangover shits are where the bidet shines. The liquid magma rolling through your guts in such a way that you can HEAR it preparing to batter your back door. The icy chill of Posideons kiss on your rosebud after a deuce of that magnitude is refreshing.
Also, I’m a hirsute guy so occasionally it’s like trying to wipe peanut butter out of shag carpet. That’s where the bidet earns it’s keep.
