When i wipe i fold the same piece many times

So I'll grab a piece, about 4 squares doubled over, and wipe. Then I fold that in half, covering the dirty part, and wipe again. Then fold it in half again, etc... Until it's too small to use. Then, if necessary I take another piece and repeat.

Is that normal?

    Yeah. That's exactly what I do. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. If you get anything on your hands, that's what soap and water are for!

    I do that too but not until it's as small as possible, just fold once and then use again.

    I do the same, only I try to dab more than wipe - but definitely do the initial folding of 3 or 4 squares so you have some protection if the first one or two layers tears, and then in half after every trip "down there". the dabbing/blotting technique is better for your sensitive tissue (muscular) back there. Also, if I recently showered and/or was more dirty than normal after serious business, I'll do the same procedure, only I'll follow up with a wet wipe, or two.

    I think thats fine and good for the environment. I have a friend who does the opposite. He will use a full roll of loo paper in two sittings.

    Exactly what I do - where is the point in taking a small sheet of toilet paper, wiping and then chucking it? The chances are one sheet will tear anyway due to friction so the more the merrier (provided their used of course!)

    i take more squares and fold many times. so thick that it's difficult to wipe.

    I always figured that's how all people did it. It's how my mom taught me when I was learning to use the toilet. Why waste perfectly good toilet paper!?

    It's called efficient. Wash your hands afterwards. Did you know that Japanese men wash their hands BEFORE taking a leak? It makes sense if you had a shower that morning because your hands are dirtier than you are down there.

    NOT NORMAL!... you're only allowed to do so with "wet wipes".. if you're still using "dry tissue" to wipe your ass in 2009.. you are an idiot
