Why do auto-flush public toilets even exist? - eviltoast

I’m sure they can’t be there to ‘save water’, as they auto flush as soon as you stand up, knowing good and well you still gotta wipe your ass and flush again anyways…

    Sitting makes it hard to properly position the paper without accidentally dipping it in the poopy water.

      This just leaves me more confused. What sort of toilet are you using, where your anus is close enough to the water that you might accidentally dip your paper in? Are you pooing in ponds?

          I guess the answer to that will be dependant on flexibility and arm length. I’m an around-the-back-er, can’t imagine reaching underneath… feels like it’d be more of a push than a wipe, but then I don’t have very long arms afaik (I kept seeing people with v long reach in MMA bouts, decided to measure my reach, was mildly disappointed to not have long arms).
