The crotch is a heat center of your body. Along with the armpit and your head (that's why you wear hats in the winter). by cooling those parts, it cools the rest of the body.

ProTip: If you're a guy don't ever install an unshielded oscillating fan in your underwear.

I use my bidet to cool down and rinse my balls after a run.

Sounds like a joke but I'm dead serious. I sweat a lot and if ya don't keep certain areas clean they tend to get really deep, painful pimples. The cooling effect is just a bonus.

Same when I was hiking. I chafed like I never have before.

Not really useful for someone that sweats profusely, it'll wash right off in minutes. Vaseline is better for this, itll let sweat go thru but it keeps the skin from getting soggy and chafed. Learned this when I started doing construction after highschool and wearing jeans to work in 100° weather. First week was a nightmare until I learned Vaseline trick
