Eh, pros and cons. Not to be gross, but I can get much cleaner with TP than a bum gun. Actually, wet TP is the happy medium. Dry TP or bum gun only both have drawbacks.

As a south east asian, you don't just let only the bum gun to wash it. You also either wipe it off with a TP afterwards, or scrub it with your hands if you like it cleaner.

Correct. My partner keeps a small (easily washed) cotton towel on the TP hanger.

Ah, this makes more sense. My wife's country doesn't use TP generally, so I'd assumed it was just spray and go(no offense meant, I never asked probing questions).

Not everyone has poop with a composition amendable to be hygienically removed with paper.

Many solutions are possible but not all of them are set to music

I appreciate the link, but I really don't understand the mechanics of using a bowl (tabo) without toilet paper or such. Get your hand wet in the tabo, make a first pass at cleaning. Then what? Your hand is dirty, and if you rinse it in the tabo, that water is tainted for all future passes. Considering the first pass is probably the worst, I don't think this is negligible.
I had a friend who would bring a cup of water to the bathroom, barely dip the toilet paper in water, and use the wet paper to get cleaner. But without having (and disposing of the) paper after each pass, I don't see how it would work.

Wet TP? Sounds like a recipe for dingleberries.

Never thought I'd have this conversation but here we are lol. Folded a few times, and lightly wet. If you get it soaking you're gonna get a finger where you don't want it, as well as those.

I can't see how this is cleaner, less effort or even as fun (for some of us) as an endless spray of water on your pucker, sorry.
Should we also shower with a lightly wet piece of TP?

Well, usually you'd shower with a rag or scrubbing utensil of some type, or at minimum hand scrubbing with soap.

Think of using a bum gun like taking a shower over the toilet.
There is no reason why you can't use all the same fun toys over a toilet as you do in the shower, while holding what amounts to a smaller shower head. Hands, soap, towels and even sponges!
The lack of mental creativity here is very entertaining!
