This topic came up in my local this weekend and out of 6, 5 folded with just one carefree soul who scrunched.
I think a broader survey is needed on this very anal topic. So who folds and who scrunches when using toilet paper?

I used to be a scruncher until I went travelling in Asia.

A lot of the places you couldn’t flush toilet paper, but with a lot of western tourists they still provided toilet paper (along with the much loved Asian ‘bum gun’) and a bin.

You could tell the places where people were new to the country and the bin was full of scrunches which was gross as you could see poop. Travel inland/away from an airport city and it was much more folding as people learnt.

Folding was much more discreet! And now I am a folder as I have seen the light.

Scruncher. I don't want flat surfaces, defined edges and a thin middle adding risk to a delicate operation.

"And then you are sorted", except your finger smells of st, utterly gross. I know I am on the edge of the spectrum, but I find the whole concept of pooping absolutely disgusting. I am a folder, but I have managed to train myself to poop before my shower each morning. On the rare occasions I have to poop in the day, I always have to have another shower straight after.

Lets be honest, tissue is never going to leave you with a 100% clean bum hole, the thought of people walking around with bits of st still stuck to their arse makes me hurl

I'm a three sheet slightly over lapping myself. It increases the area required.

Similar. I really don't understand someone needing a shower afterwards, unless they've got a really hairy aRse. If you keep using paper until it comes up clean then there can't be any stray poop left in situ. Otherwise we're into Howard Hughes territory.

I hoover the interior of the car every time I use it, so we are probably not that far off.

Seriously? Special 'arse' flannel and soap and water will do it. It's only a small area that needs washing.

Unless you're REALLY messy...
