  vetrivel, why are you tasking me about brahmin homosex? I am not brahmins - but why all you people like to bring some unknown poor people in posting thoughts. I dont know wheteher they homosex more or less - then non brahmins... if they want to let them do...whetever - front / back...only one thing imporatnatly - that againe brings us to the topic of this whole drama - water or paper?
  
  dakshina my local buddychum, I am only comparing technology - both same... bothe spray water... you dont need charas to explain simple technology - it is not like shuttle from US taking water and spraying in moon or mars! (sometimes ofcourse - poor thing falling bvack while coming)
  
  By the by, I think sweetie's mail is very sweet! poor thing!!
  
  And Miami - you are too fast technologist - we have still not got over this topic - you have already started talking about some electronic(computerised???) bum mechanism... dakshina - this is the advantages of living in Bush country!!!
  
  cheerio!

  Baba, This topic was started by a person living in Bush country, asking for advice from others living in the same country. It is for them and (anybody else who is interested), I am giving these URLs.
  
  Here is my solution for the original question:
  1. For those who prefer paper - go and buy toilet paper.
  2. For those who prefer water and rent a house - go and buy water jug. Before sitting to do your job,fill the water jug from the bathroom faucet and keep it next to you. (Man! These are all simple solutions. Do I even have to write this on an Internet forum? What am I? Mama giving potty training to kids??)
  3. For home owners, if you prefer water:
  a: Use a bidet shower as a cheaper solution. You don't have to remember to fill the jug with water before sitting.
  b. If you want electronic gizmo which washes, massages and dries, install bidet seat. But I think the same nozzle is used to clean everybody's bum, which is yuuckkkk....... So look for an optimal and hygienic product in this category, if at all it exists. Browse the net where you can find a lot of models to suit your needs. If nothing suits you, go back to primitive solutions outlined in 1,2,3.a
  
  I think I am turning from a water mechanic to a bum consultant now! No I don't want this job. I am going back to other threads now!

  Hello there,
  There is something I would like o share with you guys .I got this GEM from among the research papers of TOXICOLOGICAL STUDIES.So enjoy !!!
  
  IN A LIGHTER VEIN
  
  Okhit Chandra Sen, wrote a letter to the Divisional Traffic Superintendent, Sahabgunj Divisional Office in 1909, complaining about how he missed the train when he got down to attend the call of nature. The Times of India reproduced the unedited letter:
  
  Beloved Sir,
  I am arrive by passenger train at ahmedpore station and my belly is too much swelling with jackfruit. I am therefore sent to privy. Just as I am doing the nuisance that guard making whistle blow for train to go off and I am running with lota in one hand and dhoti in the next when I fall over and expose all my shockings to many female women on the platform. I got leaved on Ahmedpore station.
  This is too much bad in passengers to make dung that dam guard not wait train five minutes for him. I am therefore pray otherwise I am making big report to papers . Pray Your honour to make big fine on that dam guard for public sake otherwise I am making big report to papers.
  
  Yours faithfully
  
  (Sd/- Okhit Chandra Sen

  nice thread. some interesting postings.
  
  i recently happened to see in a western newspaper an article criticing English's hesitation in discussing the natural things (say like flatus) in public.
  
  as far as i'm concerned i find it difficult to use a mug in the west(provided i find a mug and i don't forget to fill it beforehand), because its difficult to position urself on legs in a western toilet to wash with water in a mug - especially without spilling it all over (outside the china/bowl)...(compared to our indian toilets, where we comfortably squat).
  
  bidet shower is a good option - to wash your bum without touching it. but still not widely available.
  
  my practice is to wet gently very nicely folded toilet tissue(3 or 4 layers) and use it - fortunately sofar, i've always found a tap at my hands stretch. i have this practice, not only for hygiene but i think wet tissues are better suited for the soft skin there so that we don't end up with excoriations. wet nappies are costly alternatives.
  
  because we indians are very obsessive about cleanliness, we end up using more and more tissues that we end up clogging the toilet (i do have personal experiences). wetting the toilet papper might reduce our obsession, a little. but as i suggested, u might have to make 3 or 4 layers and fold it further - to gently wet one side alone and not to the extent that the wetness reaches the other side (needs a lot of practice... just trial and error method). but there is a minor risk of clogging the toilet, if u use more paper (layers) at a single time(b'cos bigger pieces can easily block the passage), though u can afford to repeat a few times with smaller pieces without this danger.
  
  u use toilet paper or water wash, its good practice to wash ur hands soon after with soap water. we don't have to emphasize this much backhome, because ultimately we all take bath (with soap) every morning, mostly after these 'kaalaikadan's.
  
  an useful medical tip for ladies is to use the tissues or water wash in a backward direction than forward direction (for the same risk of UTI, as highlighted by some one earlier).
  
  good luck.

  Hello Vetrivel,
  I think the famous R.I.P in this context should be changed to S.I.P !!! LOL.

  Miami,
  
  If you do become a bum consultant and get some of those clean n' dry gizmos together you could make a packet. I wouldn't know what to do with a mug or a jug but I want a Miami.
