    Friendly reminder, wiping your arse with dry paper is not sufficient to clean it following a dump run.

    A bidet (european style) is best.

    no itchy/smelly bumhole ever again

      Bidet crew checking in.

      Mines got hot water. I don’t mean that it’s got a pipe for hot water, and you have to wait forever for it to warm up. I mean it’s got a water heater built in. And a heated seat. And a hot air blower… dryer? Butt hair dryer? It’s nice, especially in the winter.

      Clean your butts, people

        I’ve got a cheaper, tap-cold only version (mainly because that’s the easiest to install without running new plumbing or electrical in that particular location). Honestly the cold water isn’t so bad. It can even numb things up if you’ve been dehydrated and launched a particularly stressful cannonball.

          Having tried simple bidets in both warm, cold, and neutral-ish climates, I find that cold water bidets seem to stiffen the poo bits and make it hard to actually get them off your butt esp since they stick to the hairs. You and I might be talking about different levels of cold, though.

      A shower with soap is best, preferably after a different method. But whatever it’s your house, you can shit direct to shower if you like.

      If you got poop on you anywhere else. Dry wiping it would not be sufficient. Rinsing it off and patting it dry would not be sufficient. You would wash with soap.

      That said, I have a bidet I use some of the time and plain old TP the rest of the time.

      A proper diet would also help. Failing that, I just take a shower right after, as you put it, a dump run.

        If it’s fabric then the smell will permeate into it and stay there. Certain things like vinegar and baking soda might get rid of or lessen smells though.

    Okay semi unrelated question, but do mens gym showers usually smell like poop?

    Because I recently got a fancy gym membership through my employer that allows me to go to basically any gym in the area, and so far the shower in the mixed gender sauna areas has always smelled like poop, while the showers in the woman’s sauna and changing room haven’t.
    Might just be a weird coincidence, but it’s been like 5 different gyms of different chains and I’ve been really bothered by it

      One possibility: Guys will keep the same crack-sweaty shorts in their locker and use them over and over without washing them. It doesn’t take too many doing that for the aura take over the locker room. Some guys really have no sense of personal hygiene.

      If it’s specifically the showers, then the staff are not cleaning things up properly.

      Maybe it’s just terrible plumbing, that pushes shit below where those showers are.

      We had an issue at work where flushing in the men’s would cause the shit to pop up in the ladies toilet. There was a fair few arguments among the women over who was leaving floaters.

      There are an awful lot of men that are so insecure and terrified of being gay/are so homophobic that they think touching their own ass to wipe/wash it makes them gay… So they don’t wipe/wash their ass at all.

      And thats why they, the things they touch, and the areas they congregate, always smell like shit.

      It smells like shit, because it IS shit.

        I worked at a foundry a while back and they had a locker room and showers so it was normal to have fully naked guys just walking around, this was fine, the problem was the guys that didn’t wipe their ass properly and sat down on the bench by the lockers before showering… The benches were a light pine color, you could see spots of shit where people sat, just dried on there.

        I never sat on those benches, even to put my boots on, people are disgusting.

      No they don’t. At least mine doesn’t. Probably because they clean their toilets and showers.

      Find a new gym. If they’re not cleaning the shower, what else don’t they clean?

        As I said, it’s been a universal experience in the 5 or so different gyms I’ve tried so far. I’m obviously not going into the bad smelling shower because the women’s showers actually are clean. So idk if that can be blamed on the gym

          I’m saying this without knowing anything about your gym. But in my experience. There are often more guys than girls who work out at a gym. Guys are more likely to go to the gym more often, with a set routine and put in some work.

          Where am I going with this? More guys, who sweat more, use the shower and thus it becomes dirtier, quicker. Simply due to there being more guys that use them. And then it starts to smell more. Especially, when the staff doesn’t clean the showers very often. And doesn’t do a very thoroughly job either. Dirt and bacteria accumulates as a result and stink up the place.

          the fact that you’ve experienced this at multiple gyms, I don’t think is attributed as much to guys shitting in the shower, as I would say it’s the multiple gyms that are consistent in not cleaning their showers.

          The gym I go to have a sheet inside the locker room where the cleaners sign off every time they clean the toilet and showers. According to the sheet, they do so regularly, and by the cleanliness of both the showers and the toilet. I believe them.

      It’s either a weird coincidence or in perhaps that the fitness chains areusing the same plumber and that guy is doing a shit job.

      Could be just poop, but combining old man smell, body odor and mold will make some gnarly stench. Still someone needs to get out the cleaning supplies.

    TBH I don’t know what that smell is but if it’s related to sweat and ass fluid then cleaning should be fairly simple:

    1. Start with a 70% rubbing alcohol, set the chair on its side and soak then compress / scrub, this step should ensure no bacteria remains and that it dries very quickly for the next steps. You don’t have to rinse alcohol, it evaporates quickly.

    2. Next we’re going to try to counteract gastric and/or uric acids, which is to say hydrochloric acid, by scrubbing with washing soda. If you don’t have access to washing soda then you can either use baking soda directly or turn the baking soda into washing soda by dehydrating it in the oven. Scrub with and rinse out the soda with water.

    3. Final step, to counter any other contaminants, rinse with some amount of acidic cleaner such as vinegar. This will also help remove any soda from the previous step. Rinse out all of the vinegar with water, it does not evaporate.

    4. Dry in a very warm place with lots of airflow.

    5. Wash your ass with soap.

      I suggest a small alteration:

      Start with 70% rubbing alcohol, set the chair on its side and soak then compress / scrub… fire.

      Buy a new chair.

      Wash your ass with soap.

          No, that would be telling you that the chair stinks because you haven’t rubbed ENOUGH shit into it and big clean is just trying to swindle you out of your money.

          What I’ve described is the revolution solution.

            You sure about that? Burning the chair and buying a new one checks the GOP boxes:

            • More consumerism
            • Less environmentally friendly
            • Pointlessly destructive

            The only thing missing is the big chair company going to your fundraisers and paying you to make people burn their chairs.

      Worked at vet office, anything like urine or feces must be rinsed off thoroughly or it will smell. Obviously soap is needed too. Enough water and soap will get rid of it, although other cleaners incl enzymatic ones will work faster. No matter what, all that cleaner and soap has to be fully rinsed or it’ll still smell.

      He should powerwash it outside or at a carwash. Or, if in an apartment he could rinse it for a while in the shower.

        It was implied that alongside cleaners would be rinsing, except for the alcohol, but I guess expecting the readers to have ever cleaned in their lives was too much.
