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.

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.

On the rare occasions I have to poop in the day, I always have to have another shower straight after.
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...

I appreciate the last thread like this got deleted so in before the ban hammer, but ffs who the hell scrunches toilet paper?

Where is the structure? You don't know just how many layers between your hand and disaster.
How do you get "in there" with a ball of paper? I am totally confused.
WTF are you dabbing or something.... this makes no sense to me.
This is making me re-asses the entire human race.
