In Brazil, it is very common to use the toilet paper every day, especially after we did “number two”. However, although it seems strange, there are countries where the use of toilet paper is even prohibited for numerous reasons. Can you believe?
Therefore, we separate a small list of countries that usually avoid toilet paper for some specific reasons. However, in Brazil, many people would never accept to stop using the leaves that are so important in the hygienic routine. But in some places it is normal.
These countries don’t use toilet paper
African countries
There are countries on the African continent that face serious difficulties in everyday life, especially in the use of basic personal hygiene items.
A social inequality and poverty plagues these places. Thus, these people do not have access to a roll of paper and clean themselves with what they have.
Countries that practice Islam
Islamic culture has a series of rules and requirements to follow and one of them is not to use toilet paper after doing number two, but to take a shower to clean yourself. This is because religion says that the individual cannot walk with anything considered impure in the body.
For them, there’s nothing better than taking a shower after doing their business, as this will guarantee total cleanliness. Turkey’s director of religious affairs has issued a statement on the ban on toilet paper.
Asia countries
Countries such as India, Thailand, the Philippines and Indonesia have chosen not to use toilet paper on a daily basis. However, the discard was due to technology. In places like this, there are even vessels completely prepared to carry out a general cleaning of the butt.
Therefore, the use of paper is completely dispensed with. Would you have the courage to abandon toilet paper for good? But one thing is certain: in some moments, it helps to reduce the amount of garbage.
