So wait, do you not dry your ass after a shower? Or are you saying that you use something other than a towel to do so? Am I speaking to someone who’s never touched their ass with a towel? Do you just stand around in the nude while waiting for your ass to air dry?
No, I don’t have a bidet. They’re expensive and not very common. But if I had one, I would probably dry my ass with a small amount of toilet paper. Or maybe I’d use a towel, and just have a different one every day. I already change and wash my underpants every day. I assume you’re not soaping your ass every time you shit, so then by your logic your underpants are exposed to a gross ass and are therefore gross themselves every time you shit. So if you find it acceptable to simply change your underpants every day, then changing a little towel every day isn’t much extra burden.
Obviously it’s possible for me to get by perfectly fine without a bidet right now. But there have been times in my life when I’ve been injured (eg a dislocated shoulder) and reaching back to wipe was kind of difficult. It opened my eyes to the fact that someday I’m going to be elderly and when the day comes, I would much rather have a device for easily cleaning my ass than to be forced to rely on someone else to do it for me. In my opinion every home should have one, just because everybody eventually gets old. I’m certainly not suggesting they be added to public bathrooms.
How is leaving your ass crusted in poo less disgusting than wiping your ass after cleaning it with water? Do you not wipe your ass after a shower? If you do, that’s just another ass towel that you also use to wipe your whole body. If you don’t, that means you don’t actually care about having swampy ass in the first place.
What I gather from this thread is that some people have an ass towel in their bathroom, and I should be drying my hands on my shirt/pants if I use a bathroom with a bidet.
Well, I don’t, I just use paper towels/tissues. We don’t even have towels for hand drying in bathrooms where I’m from.
Why would you want to dry your hand using a towel that is hanging 24/7 in air filled with poop particles in the first place? A bidet being there or not doesn’t change that.
After a shower you dry off with a towel, obviously.
Do you dry your ass with a towel after using a bidet? An ass towel? Because that’s disgusting.

Do you shit while in the shower or something?
No, but the purpose of a shower is to get dirt off of your body. Dirt that got there before the shower, not during.
I wash with soap when I shower. Do you use soap with your bidet?

Soap. In the shower I use soap.
Then, you can do the same with a bidet. After rinsing it with water, use soap, then rinse it again.

A bin of reusable cloths would also work - each cloth gets used once and then put in a dirty bin to be washed later.
