Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I want one so bad, but I can't get the husband on board. I have considered just buying it and installing it myself via the "do it anyways and ask for forgiveness" method, but dunno if butt spray is a battle I'm willing to choose yet. I just want to convince him it's a good idea.
If he doesn't like it he doesn't have to use it.
He's scared he'll like it to much.
It’s true.. we all do.
They're very easy to install. It's almost as easy as installing a shower head.
There are also compact battery powered portable handheld bidets that work about as well as the real thing. I have one I take with me on trips.
I have a portable one too and it's not exactly what I'd call discreet but sure gets the job done. Honestly can't recommend it for travel though because in spite of the "portable" label, it's terribly bulky and causes me no end of grief when trying to take it on an airplane. Your experience may be different, here's the one I've got.
Roflmao
Maybe I should upgrade...
This is what I use at work:

It's just a cap that you can put on almost any soda bottle or water bottle.
I keep an old 20 oz soda bottle in my office to use with it.
Great for travel and very discreet.
Thanks for the recommendation, not sure it's exactly what I'm looking for but I appreciate it all the same. Looks to be missing some key features (such as the carrying strap) that I've grown accustomed to.
Ah yes, the old "two person" bidet. Truly the sign of a committed relationship.
The portable one is my rec too. I have a rechargeable one. I refill it with warm or cool water depending on my preference and then bippity boppity.
I like it because it's also easier to aim and control.
If I was going to get one to hook to the toilet, I'd get the type that's like a kitchen sprayer attached to hose.
Assuming your financial decision making for a purchase of that magnitude isn't at the "we need to make this decision together" threshold: do it.
He doesn't HAVE to use it just because you bought/installed it.
Yeah, I can get one on Amazon right now for less than $50, so I can definitely afford it with my own spending money. I really should just do it.
They're not mandatory if they're attached. It's not gonna jump out and douse your butt without you asking.
I gotta say especially if you live in a warm area....there's no going back...bidet for life
What is his objection?
Get one with a heated seat and he'll forgive you even if he doesn't come around to the butt spray. Heated seats are something I never knew I needed and now that I have it I can never go back. I cringe whenever I'm at a friend's house and I need to sit on their cold toilet seat.
