I believe the method in which you wipe is good indicator of how you treat other people, especially those below you, or handle conflicts. I can't prove anything, but bodily functions make for good cross cultural metaphors.
There's always one asshole in your life that won't leave you alone: Your own. Do you pamper it? Look at it? Introduce it to your friends? Or go around pretending it's not there? Was it responsible for some of the worse embarrassments in your life? Or maybe the greatest pleasures? Perhaps, the reason why we think so much on the toilet is escape the moment? Or maybe you think about it too much already, trapped in one of Freud's stages.
Before you answer any of these questions, my sure your asshole is not behind you.

From what I've observed in public restrooms recently, I'd suggest you add a very prominent solution... wall usage.

I scrunch mine into a ball. What does that mean? That I'm lazy? I actually am, though. Maybe its true that the way you treat toilet paper is a good reflection of one's personality.

^Someone agrees with me. I must have been speaking English. Once in a blue moon... Once in a blue moon... can you explain the poll options plz Fold (like you're about to sand a surface) or Wad/Scrunch (like you're about to plug a crack in a dam) Exotic materials/devices:Newspaper Magazines Leaves (from trees or bushes) Water jets (Japanese automated toilets) Wet wipes (baby wipes for grownups) 3 seashells ( mysterious device prophesied by science fiction) Non-attempt:Pampers (crapping you pants) None/don't wipe (skid row and Hersey highways on your undies) |

Baby wipes. At least someone here likes to try new things. Or maybe just another victim of subliminal marketing?  ChickenSoda, may I suggest a Comfort Wipe extension to go with your stock of adult wet wipes. Consider it a complete upgrade. I'll give you full props for doing that. My ass is still stuck in the 19th century. |

Hey, I always wanted to ask a male this:
Do you wipe after you pee? Because I had to stay in the boy's bathroom at school once during a tornado drill, and I noticed there was no TP next to the urinals. What do you do if you don't wipe it then?

I've used leaves before, and a water bucket plus scooper (plus hand). Never tried water jets though I've seen them in Japan -that's not the Asia I know! [At first it seemed really weird that you would spray "soiled" water for cleaning, but I guess the water jets are fresh water from another source and don't come straight up through the bowl, or you do it after you already flush]
Definitely fold for regular usage - minimum two sheets doubled up, then sometimes I refold again when I'm feeling environmentally conscious. I'll even three-sheet it if it's particularly thin toilet paper. I'm usually a cheapie but go for Quilted Northern over Scott or the bargain basement kind - sometimes I treat myself to Charmin ultra soft, and imagine I know what Bill Gates' behind feels like.
BTW, does anyone else have the impression that the obsession with lavatorial topics comes more from the Asian side of their family?

Probably not, a friend of mine told that in Germany, people use recycled toilet paper, the way he described the whole thing sounded painful.

Toilet paper can get expensive. I used to steal the rough industrial grade kind from the utility closets in the university building bathrooms, but after a while the custodial staff knew something was up and they starting locking it up.
