I was taking my daily mid-morning poop today and while I was wiping, I thought, I wonder how most people wipe.

I tend to wipe while standing up cause it’s more comfortable and allows for more cheek-spreaditivity.

So, I beg the question: How does most of Lemmy wipe? Do you wipe while standing up or do you wipe while sitting down? Why?

    My favorite place to shit is at home because that means I don’t have shoes on and can slip one leg out of my pants allowing me to spread my legs more. Wiping while sitting allows you to incorporate using the seat to help keep your cheeks spread. The first wipe is a light touch so as not smash and smear but still catch any dingleberries. Second wipe is placing folded square over the hole and using a finger to work into any skin folds or creases. Continue as needed…

    Additional tip. Slip one arm out of your shirt so it doesn’t accidentally rub against the seat hinges or back of the lid.

    Also when involving shits of the more liquid variety, don’t forget to wipe your cheeks. Liquid will run down to the lowest point before dripping, and this can often be far away from the hole.
