Folks with vaginas, I’m conducting some family comparative analysis and I’d like to know how many standard pieces of toilet paper do you use when wiping after a pee. I posted some comments with options to upvote if you like.

    Yes, particularly as I get older the equipment doesn’t drain fully and needs a little help.

    There’s a rhyme about it “no matter how much you shake and dance, the last few drops go down your pants”, well I choose to wipe instead of relying on the absorbance of my pants or trousers (the original saying is American so means trousers really).

      It’s so curious I bet thers one in each language we have a similar one in Italy it says

      “puoi scrollarlo dalle alpi alle ande ma l ultima goccia va sempre nelle mutande”

      It means you can shake it from the Alps to the Andes but the last drop always goes into the underwear

          Also in Argentina and others Spanish speaking countries we say “Como Salomón la última gota va al pantalón” it means “Like Solomon the last drop good in the pants”.
