外国では珍しいが、国内ではあたりまえのウォシュレット。初めて日本に来たときに使ってみて、飛び上がったときを思い出しました。
しかしなんとすばらしい発明だっと今も僕は思います。とくに変な食べ物を食べた後のGERI。そのGERIをお尻のあちこちに拡げるよりも、ウォシュレットの水ビームのほうが効率がいいと思います。外国では”BIDET”(”ビデ”と発音します)というのがあり、トイレのとなりにおいてあるお尻を洗うモノだ(写真はここ)。しかしビデを使うと、うんちが終わったあとにビデに移動しないといけない。移動している間に、便が床に落ちたり、その便でうっかりとすべったり、頭を強く便器に打つ危険性もある。

この記事を書く的は外国にいるリーダーに日本のウォシュレットのすばらしいさを紹介するためだった。。。ごめんなさい。

便を拭く・洗うネタみつあります。

Usually used them at hotels.  Good idea I think.  It may be expensive at first, but think of all the TP money you'll save from not spreading the pb around yer keister.  Might pay for itself in a couple of years.... ;)

I have to love the japanese to come up with ways to make anything interesting and sophisticated. Hey, this invention will save u a bundle in toilet paper!! Just imagine how many trees don't have to be cut down to make toilet paper. They might even find a way to recycle used toilet paper!! Seriously!! I love the japanese spirit of creativity.

I remember me and my friend trying this out when we were at Japan - I pushed the button and quickly got out of the way. The jet of water splashed on the wall of the cubicle. We tried to turn it off but instead moved the water blaster up and down so the water actually managed to reach the next cubicle (the toilet was facing sideways) and splashed the guy in it.

I tried a washlet before, but didn't feel it was clean enough. I turned it on full blast, felt the strangely thereaupetic feeling of water blasting into your orifice, and felt doubtful that it was clean. And sure enough it wasn't. I still needed toilet paper and had to wipe off wet dung which is harder than not-so-wet ones with the use of toilet paper. Maybe i wasn't doing it right?

I spent a night over at a friend's house who has one of these and the first time I used it I was really surprised and jump from the seat (wasn't expecting it and the water was cold).  I wouldn't mind using it again. heheh.  I think it's cleaner and much more convenient than using toilet paper.

"I think people got fed up of using those Chugi sticks because some people mistook them for chopsticks and then realizing while they are eating breakfast that they were not chopsticks (chopsticks otherwise known as "ohashi" in Japanese) but elder brothers personal Chugi.

Lol on the potty-pod (mp3 playing washlet) and the portable washlet, wonder if I can find a site that sells the toto portable washlet, that thing would make a great christmas gift for friends. ^^ 

BeLe, I believe the ones in Japan have heaters to keep the water as well as the seat warm, or at least the one I used when I was in Tokyo. ^^

There must be something wrong with me, because I found the whole thing about the chugi more curious than the washlet. I'd use a washlet, but I think I can live without ever trying chugi.

"one can strategically take out the offensive object just like MGS Snake with his sniper rifle on a dose of diazepam."

Hahahaha! Ace!

I gotta admit, it took me a few dumps to warm to them, but once used to having water spraying where the sun dont shine, it really helps with the 'clean up operation' - especially if your business was a bit um... untidy.

Id buy one! Not sure about the heated seat and MP3 player malarkey, but the jet of water and the self-lowering seat is great.

Some of the older Malays and ABNN from my conutry dun use papers but wash their butt instead, which is why there is always atleast a squat pan cubicle in the public toilet with a hose. Thats when they wear sarong with no undies, its impraticial to wash your butt if you wear pants and undies. I would say they are the pioneers of washlets/bidets.

Its a device thats make sense. Altho i recommend a wash/wipeX2 method. Wash to try getting rid of those clingers. Wipe to make sure its clean.Wash again for good measure.And wipe again so that you wont get a cold cos you're wearing wet undies. I'm a malay and i agree with Huk..but i need to correct some of his misconception. I'm young and IF i do wear my sarong,i'll wear undies or shorts for that matter.So do my gramps and dad. It can get drafty and we wont try to emulate the Scots.Goes the same the others mentioned (ABNN is kinda offensive).

Usual method over here is 'wipe' the BIG stuff off, then move over to the bidet. But... yeah, good idea having it all in one place. But bidets are good as peeing supplement when you don't have two bathrooms and no problem sharing the room. And for washing your feet! hahahaaaha

So they used sticks, they could use them behind their backs in awkward positions! Wow! chopsticks masters supreme!

Remember the phrase "getting the wrong end of the stick"? In Rome public restrooms sometime a person would grab the wrong end of the Chugi and thus the phrase is born.
