Toto toilets make one with a bidet in the seat. Wonderful.
Odd that the US with it’s clean obsession doesn’t use them. My GI doctor recommenced it as the solution for hemorrhoids and lots of GI issues. So even if one is not gay, bidets are important. Every gay man should have one.

There was usually a small hand towel placed on the faucets of the bidet for drying purposes.
We had them in our houses in England, growing up, but no one ever seemed to use them. Now people seem to giggle at them and pull them out. I don't see what's so funny about them. I think they're a good idea.
In fact I had an attachment installed to my toilet earlier this year. Much nicer than scraping your ass with bog paper.

R17 has a tendency to leave posters here wishing she had a steam hose up her cunt to blow out her controlling entitlement.
We always had bidets in our bathrooms with toilets (most of our bathrooms weren't for that purpose) or waterclosets. It was just normal. Soft cotton towels were laid out conveniently if they were needed, and just as with taking a bath one would not expect to share bathtowels one would not be expected to share a towel in a WC, for whatever purpose used. We would use the hamper when done with them. We did this with our houses in England and France, and family in Italy had the same arrangements.
My grandmother did have paper, but not toilet tissues. She had soft and larger paper wipes. Frugal. And as she said she had a small house and not many people were using her facilities.
Americans' habits of dry-wiping and walking about apparently foul-bottomed always was a point of discreet humor with us. Seeing tourists picking and pulling at their back ends as they do would require stifling snickers when they'd walk past a cafe. Worse was the gentlemen who walked like movie cowboys, careful to stride with their legs apart. We could only imagine what the problem there was, but preferred not to ponder too deeply.

To the people who have questions about the efficacy of a bidet: it's similar to pointing a handheld shower head on your butthole. Just a smaller (diameter) stream of water (like a Waterpik), aimed at the correct area. You can use toilet paper afterwards, mostly to absorb water. It's very effective; you do feel much cleaner afterwards, vs. just toilet paper. I would still use soap at least 1X per day (during your daily shower or bath).

Wipe to remove whatever you can, then finish with the bidet.

R69, I have both of those bidets. The comparison is spot on. The Toto has better pulsating nozzle function to clean around your anus. It's built in air dryer and odor filter works better. In terms of maintenance, the Toto's underside has fewer nooks and crannies, therefore less chance for fecal splatter to deposit and easier to clean. The remote is fancier, of course it's twice the price of the Biobidet. The main advantage of Biobidet over Toto is the enema function. You can essentially fill your rectum with water, hold for several seconds then let it all out. Heaven!

It was unsightly and as another poster said, most likely dangerous. Plus the seat would get pretty hot.

Bidets were/are generally part of wealthy Europeans' bathrooms. In general Europeans did/do not bath and shower as frequently as Americans so they would clean where needed most. This did/does not mean that they did/do not "wipe". A bidet is not intended to take the place of "wiping" rather to clean a part of the body that perhaps needs it more- without bathing/showering. Not so hard to understand.

I don't think you need to spend a lot of money on these things. I grew up with bidets separate from the toilet bowl and missed them terribly when I moved to the US so I once bought one of those electronic bidets that you attach to your toilet bowl and had to plug in. The electronics broke down in a few months and I was out of a bidet again.
Because I don't like warm water (and much less hot water) hitting my hole when I wash, I decided to go with a simple bidet that delivers cold water and doesn't need to be plugged into the wall outlet. I have now had it for years and I couldn't be happier about it. My ass couldn't be happier either.
For more thorough prep, I use the hose in my shower which cleans much farther than a bidet.
