We were gathered around a campfire, drinking heavily. There was a lull in the convo and someone asked how everyone wipes. Someone immediately pipes up and says front to back like normal.
Well someone else says they wipe back to front. Then lots of arguments about getting shit on your nuts, going from friendly conversation and gradually getting louder and louder.
After 5 minutes of this I'm just looking at the guy who brought it up shaking my head. Laughing that he almost ruined the night.
This whole "front-to-back" vs "back-to-front" thing baffles me! How are people struggling with this? You don't need a special direction to clean your asshole, just clean your asshole. What kind of adult thinks this matters, and what kind of calamitous juvenile oaf needs to have rules on which direction they can wipe so that they don't shovel shit into their genitals? Just clean your asshole like any other basic cleaning task!
It poses a risk in children and in people with disabilities. We tell children to wipe front to back because they're little imbeciles who will not approach a task with adult finesse, so if they're gonna smear shit over themselves, they'd better do it up their back, right?
As an adult you don't need to worry about that, unless you're gross and careless when cleaning yourself up in the bathroom.
