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?

    This question pops up every now and then on social media and it always blows my mind that there are people who wipe standing up. I just don’t understand the logistics of it and it seems like it would make things more difficult.

      Right? Standing up – strictly for topology reasons – is going to make the situation more difficult.

      I wipe in a position that is more like squatting, because standing up clenches the cheeks making it harder to clean, but sitting leaves the possibility of potentially dipping your hand in the toilet bowl.

      It is the superior way, embrace the squat wipe.

      I just feel that the International Ass Wiping Authority guidance 27881 should be followed. By standing the cheeks close slightly, which what the hell, why would I want to wipe that. I do understand the white paper, “Stank Bowl finding 87712-b” outlined the wack idea of wiping over the nuclear blast you just left introduces some risk, but it’s not significant enough to stand up and introduce additional ass closing issues.

        We don’t stand that way. It’s “standing” in the sense the butt comes up off the toilet. But the overall posture is still “sitting”.

          Ok so the Council of Auditable Shats (1998 conference) did mention this is a good hybrid deployment model.

      Makes me think about the video with the huuuuge bulky black man thought everyone pooped in their hands and caress it gently into the water.

      Children learn to stand up to wipe because thats the only way they can reach. Some people never learn otherwise.
