Weird i was allowed to vote in the poll. Looking at the responses in that thread i thought the results were going to be much different. Good to know that most of OOT keeps a clean ass.

the point lookers are trying to make is sometimes it takes 2 wipes, sometimes it takes 6, etc. and i really don't believe there is a tactile difference between that 5th wipe and that (when necessary) 6th wipe. the logical conclusion is that sometimes you are leaving **** on your ass. sorry dude.

not to mention that your charge that some of the posters here didn't learn to wipe correctly is ridiculous. how can you say i don't know how to wipe correctly when 100 PERCENT OF THE TIME I LEAVE NO **** ON MY ASS HOLE???

Yeah, non-looking and sitting are both ridiculous. I think the non-looking's been covered, but the sitting honestly baffles me even more. Do you go back to front instead of front to back? How do you get that part of your ass behind/above the hole that you'd be sitting on? Do you ever accidentally smear sh*t on your balls? Standing up and reaching around instead of going between the legs is 100x more practical. I knew that women sometimes wiped sitting down, but I didn't think that men did it ever. If you asked me to ballpark a number of men from 1st-world countries that wiped sitting down before reading this thread, I would have guessed <1%.

Actually, maybe that's the problem. This might be a cultural thing. Are any of you men who wipe sitting down white Americans? I could see it if you live in Japan with magic toilets or maybe even for Asians in general that might have less ass hair and generally end up with a cleaner bunghole.

i was shocked to learn there are tons of guys who sit to pee too! conclusion: some people are just straight up ****ing weirdos, but they'll never admit it, since to them it seems so normal. kind of like people who say "on accident" instead of "by accident", and "on line" instead of "in line".

I can see how it could be different for some people though.
Some people have better touch down there or something.
And I think having hair might make it more difficult to tell when you aren't done either.

So maybe for some individuals they really can tell by feel and really don't need to look. But this is me trying to be open-minded and generous to the opposing view. My hunch is that a vast majority of the "I go by feel" type non-lookers aren't quite as clean as they could/should be.

What?!?!?!

This only matters if you never plan on leaving the toilet.

woa woa woa, so sitters open their legs and wipe from the front?? That seems uhm.......really dumb. Is this how all sitters do it?

nah i think sitters go from crack to sack

yeah shocking isnt it? I remember some thread a long time back where I made fun of anyone who sits to pee and a ton of guys came in saying they often sit down to pee since its more relaxing or cuz it was at night and they were tired. Personally, I still think they are fruity weirdos, but hey, whatever I guess.

i used to be a stander. ~2 years ago i tried wiping while sitting. frankly, you just have more efficient wipes cause your ass is more "spread" (lol sexy). now i wipe sitting, look, then do a saftey wipe or 2 while standing.

whatever comes of this thread, i must stress the safety wipe. you ever have that miracle **** that requires no wipes?! well, im more afraid of those because there is a chance the poo particles are off target. when these happen i do like 9 safety wipes.

one thing i havent tried but hear lots about is baby wipes. seems logical, but i would feel like an old person or something.

whoa. wait. i just assumed that the sitters didn't look. are you saying you reach into the bowl, wipe, then pull the paper out again to look at it?

nevermind, i see you then stand up to look and wipe more if necessary. but you do any further wiping standing? i think you're basically a stander.

baby wipes are definitely good if available, but i don't think they're indispensable or anything.

OH NOEZ I LOOKED AT MY OWN POO!!!

i look in both stances. also i wipe from the front. the back is riskier and less effecient. basicly i lift my sack and go to town lol

edit: in a small or super deep water toilet i just stand. the last thing i want is to touch any part of the toilet but the seat w/ my ass.

Hi i'm a white american age 21 that wipes sitting down. I use the same reach around tactic that you do but instead of standing I lean putting most of my weight on my left ass cheek and wipe front to back.
