The “West is catching up”, some Twitter users believe, as European football fans in Qatar discover the bidet shower used in the toilets of most Muslim households and quite common in Muslim countries.
People from all over the world are present in Qatar for the FIFA World Cup 2022 and Westerners are in a cultural shock (in a good way) using what is also commonly known as the “Muslim shower”.
According to YouTuber and comedian David Vujanic, who goes by just “Vuj”, his “bum is thankful” to the “high-pressure shower head”.
“Been using the toilet bum shower thing in qatar for a month…I am absolutely horrified we only use toilet paper in the Uk/Europe. This is the best thing ever man,” he wrote in a tweet, adding that he would be “investing in one” as soon as he went back to his home in London.
Social media users were quick to react to the tweet, some sharing their similar moments of surprise and others sharing other loo technologies from across the globe. Muslims were also quick to inform the “Westerners” that they had been using water in the restroom for centuries, welcoming them to “civilisation”.
