Nonsense. Well maybe it does. But regardless for some reason it seems to nearly completely negate the smell of rancid feces. You should seriously try it! You'll thank me later.

Not sure about Central & South America, but in Asia they also put TP in the bin, BUT it's only used to dry your ass as you spray it clean first. This leaves you feeling > 9,000% cleaner than smearing shit around your ass with paper. It's like taking a shower every time you take a dump. I loved it
Took me a while to get used to smearing the shit around my ass after moving back here. I still don't like it.
The mighty Bum Gun:
That's bizarre. A bidet makes far more sense in just about every respect (particularly sanitary), except the need for another piece bathroom furniture.
I have had no experience with South America, but in China in many places one is expected to use a bin beside the toilet rather than flush it.
Speaking from experience working with the plumbing in my wife's apartment in Chongqing, and with bathrooms in China in general, the plumbing is not made to the standards that we have in the States. In very nice new facilities you can flush used toilet paper (if you are careful and don't flush large wads of paper), but the once you get to places that were not built in the 21st century you will clog up the plumping, and are expected to put used paper in a bin by the toilet.
I have never heard of this being a "thing" in the States though.

Toilet. Putting it in the garbage would be gross. You don't want all those pathogens just lingering around the house you want to get rid of that (literally) crap. The fact that it's in a rather sealed pipe all the way to the treatment plant will ensure none of it goes airborne. Same with mucus when you have a cold. Some people just shove it in their pockets or put it in the garbage. Gross. You want to get rid of that, not contaminate everything. You're never going to get better if your whole house, clothes etc are contaminated with the germs that got you sick in first place not to mention you'll get other people sick. If it's just sitting in the garbage the pathogens will eventually go airborne as it dries up.

I've wondered about bidet style toilets. Does those really clean your pooper? Some trickling water doesn't really seem like it would do anything. It seems like the stream of water would have to be super powerful to clean the feces off one's pooper. I know toilet paper isn't some magical thing that cleans spotless, but I'd take that over some water dribbling on mah azz. Now, some water AND toilet paper might be good but just that water... just doesn't seem like it would clean anything.
Any bidet users want to school my dumb ass in this?

AFAIK it's not meant to be a complete replacement for wiping after going for a dump, it's just meant to make things easier when you get a bowel movement from hell that needs a thousand wipes. I imagine for people with problems down there like haemorrhoids it's even more of a benefit.

I keep a washcloth by the toilet that I replace weekly, sometimes bi-weekly if my yogurt and fiber game is on-point.
I wash them hot with bleach along with the rest of my whites. Toilet paper is a waste.

Totay true the correct way to poop is to squat and you rarely have to clean unless your idea of cleaning is to stick you finger all the way up your bum. Get a poop stool and try it.

"For some reason"
That is a sign you have healthy gut bacteria. The milk mixed with your feces is basically creating a yogurt-like substance, which should age pretty fine even in room temperature and not smell for quite a long time. You could bottle and sell the fermented milk as a natural yogurt / kefir at your local farmers market.

Poops vary. Some poops don't stain as much as others. Like the other day I had a poop where it was a bunch of round balls like a rabbit. One wipe, and it was clean! But most of the time, it's like cleaning peanut butter out of a shagged carpet.

Assuming you are having healthy bowel movements it's because you don't poop correctly. When you kneel your anal sphincter stretches so there nothing for the pehcal matter to linger on and when you stop the Anal sphincter goes back inside your anus. And if done correctly there is nothing left to clean, again assuming you having a normal bowel movement. Best way is to squat on the ground but even putting your feet on a stool while on a toilet works, see the diagram I posted above.
