If it cannot withstand paper, it cannot withstand underwear. This doesn’t inspire me with security and reads more like the company trying to push away responsibility for cheap products and/or bad design. Toilets are nothing new, every country has at least a few.
* Pulls off mask, revealing “includes features like … an air dryer”.
Funny thing about air dryers and using them near plastics… Yeah, guys, to the people trying to argue that toiler paper is now sandpaper, one, I’m going to venture a guess that an air dryer does more damage, and two, I’m going to trigger you by telling you how I’ve been using toilet paper to clean my glasses and no problem, they even still have that blue surface level “anti-reflection” protection.
How on Earth does a toilet seat get scratched from TP?? Are the seats made with super shitty material or is the toilet paper the ass-tearing sandpaper kind?
Even normal tp and tissue fibers are actually surprisingly hard. For example if you wear glasses you should not use tissues to wipe the glasses because it will eventually damage the coating. Something like a cotton T-shirt will be more friendly to your glasses (but it’s probably not a good idea to wipe a toilet seat with your t-shirt)
Then why do we use them on our assholes? Are we stupid? (don’t answer that)

The epithelial cells keep reproducing, so any cells your tear off while wiping gets replaced.
But I still concur: it’s 2025, we sent people to the moon almost 60 years ago, we built a world wide computer network, and I can watch porn on a little plastic rectangle, using wireless headphones, so nobody notices that I’m jerking off on the bus (ok, that last part isn’t true, they definitely did notice, and I’m not allowed to drive the school bus anymore /s) … still though, we’ve come so far, and we’re still wiping our asses with dried tree mush? Wtf? At least we’re not using the toilet brush like the Romans, but how about we tried something other than scraping feces from our skin? Maybe a build in bidet? I have never found them in the wild, but when I do, I can guarantee that I’m trying out the warm water and blow dryer options… Maybe while using my wireless headphones and plastic rectangle ;-)
Are we stupid? (don’t answer that)
Yes (sorry, too stupid to understand rhetorical questions)
Just as soon as people quit pissing on it.
I supposedly go to work in a building with other adults.
Men who stand to piss has never had to clean the bathroom. It’s standard in Germany to sit when pissing. It’s also healthy for men, so if you’re standing, especially at home, sit the fuck down!
I’m a man who both stand and clean my own toilet, sorry if your preconceptions are wrong.
I’d recommend that you sit, just because it’s healthier for you. But you do you!
So standard that they had to have an influence campaign to shame men into “sitz pickling” in homes.
I’m saying this as a man sitting on a toilet peeing at this very moment, so I’m all in favor. But I think the other commenters should know the history.
Personally I’m in favor of sitting when plumbing is involved, and standing out in nature.
Healthier how? I also clean and stand, and put the seat down to flush.
You seem quite passionate about this?
Yes, I am, because people should do what’s healthy for them. It’s not like I don’t stand when I’m out in the woods/in public toilets/in my garden (for the plants), but sitting let’s more urine out, making less of a mess of those small droplets than you can’t get out.
On that note, after you’ve pissed, try dragging your finger from underneath your balls and forward towards your balls - you’ll be surprised how much urine you’ll push out!
Ah, another person who doesn’t have a penis, who doesn’t understand that when you sit down and compress everything and then stand up, piss goes everywhere.
Shut up and never speak again on how men should urinate. Unless you’re going to equally advocate that men have appropriate waste disposal tools in bathrooms, such as stand-up urinals.
As much as Toto charges for these, I don’t think they should be defeated by toilet paper. Do better.
If I shouldn’t wipe the seat with toilet paper because it creates micro-scratches, what the hell does it do to my ass?! I don’t want to risk scratches or discolouration either!
To be fair, your ass can likely heal micro scratches and your toilet seat probably cannot.
And the discolouration? What about the discolouration?! I’m not bleaching that thing again!
