For a bathroom poll this is not too disgusting (I hope).
After you pass solid waste do you:
a.) stand then wipe
b.) wipe then stand
Personally I do (a) and it had never occurred to me to do (b), but I was talking about this to a friend once* and she thought that (a) was quite strange. I’ve thought about tacking this on the end of one of my surveys, but it’s so out there that people might not want to answer.
*We were discussing automatic flush toilets and wasted water.
If you stand first, the butt cheeks come together and increase the chance of any residue soiling previously unsullied skin. Plus from the sitting position it’s trivially easy to drop the paper into the bowl.
A½. I don’t really stand, just raise up enough to reach around, maybe a foot at the most. Leaning or reaching between the legs increases the odds of making contact with the bowl contents.
Ahh XD I didn’t even realize the irony of posting in the thread. We prefer the brand with the puppy. No idea what it’s called other than it has a puppy on it. But seriously, been doing it all my life and I thought it was normal till I saw my sister in law potty training my nieces.
I stand with knees slightly bent. This allows both the front to back motion and the back to front motion. If the stools are particularly tarry, a little spit on the toilet paper helps to break it up.
I used to wipe first. Then for some reason, almost certainly back problems which I have on and off for 40 years, I started standing first and never changed back.
