      Yes. It’s the old style. Before they had the tech for the under seat ones. Some didn’t even have fountains and you’d fill it up and wash your ass with your hands.

          I still can’t figure out how to use the showerhead while sitting. I always stand up. I guess the bidet fits people who likes to sit

      Some (most?) Italians will do a bit of wiping and the move over. I guess you can even stand up and then sit on the bidet without wiping, as you’ll wash the whole area anyway?

      Often used for quickly washing your pits, bits and feet. Not just as an automated ass wiper.

      That is a REAL bidet from long before anyone ever thought of a toilet hookup. You’ll find these throughout Europe and South America. Even the poorest houses have them.
