A bidet is a plumbing fixture used for personal hygiene. It is designed to wash and clean the genitalia, perineum, and inner buttocks. Modern bidets have a plumbed-in water supply and a drainage opening, and they can be standalone fixtures or attachable to toilet bowls. Bidets are used after using the toilet and can also be used for washing feet. They are considered an indispensable tool for personal hygiene in various cultures, primarily in Europe, Eastern Asia, and some South American countries. In the United States, bidet adoption has been slower but is growing due to factors such as hygiene, eco- friendliness, and plumbing benefits
