Folks with vaginas, I'm conducting some family comparative analysis and I'd like to know how many standard pieces of toilet paper do you use when wiping after a pee. I posted some comments with options to upvote if you like.

It's so curious I bet thers one in each language we have a similar one in Italy it says

"puoi scrollarlo dalle alpi alle ande ma l ultima goccia va sempre nelle mutande"

It means you can shake it from the Alps to the Andes but the last drop always goes into the underwear

Also in Argentina and others Spanish speaking countries we say "Como Salomón la última gota va al pantalón" it means "Like Solomon the last drop good in the pants".
