Welcome to our slash Am I the Butthole, where a house guest washes her feet in a bidet.

Am I the Butthole for not telling strangers that I wash my butt?

The title sounds like clickbait, but it's not.

I'm a 30-year-old woman, and I come from a country where it's customary to wash your butt

after you go number two. It's a standard practice like in many other countries, and every household

has bathrooms with bidets. I currently live in a European country where it's not that common,

but you can still find a few houses that do have a bidet, and some people hear wash and others wipe,

but neither choice is strange to the other group. I happen to live in a bathroom with two houses,

a small one with a toilet and a sink, and a large one that also has a bathtub and a bidet.

When I have guests, I usually point them to the small bathroom, but only because it's closer

to the area that we usually hang out in. Last weekend, my wife and I had a bunch of friends over

for a barbecue. One of my friends brought Kelly, a woman in her 30s who's from the US and who I've

never met before. Everything was going well, and I thought that Kelly was nice. I was grilling

sausages, and at one point I take one out to give it to someone, and I dropped it on Kelly's

feet who was wearing flip flops. I apologize profusely and handed Kelly a napkin. She said not to worry,

but she preferred to wash off, so she left while I stayed in the terrace cleaning the floor.

She comes back a moment later and comments, how cute that your bathroom has a little

feet washer. My wife and I were like, what? And when she repeats, I say, oh, you mean the bidet?

Kelly didn't know what a bidet was, and when I explained it to her, she was shocked,

and asked if we actually used it to wash after going to the toilet. And I said that my wife

doesn't, but I do. And that's when Kelly lost it. She got agitated and furious asking,

how come we didn't tell her? To which I said, I've never had to explain to anyone what a bidet
