Now you can begin wiping. It is important that you remain seated for the duration of the procedure, as this ensures proper area coverage and meticulous cleansing. Start out with a decent size wad of tissue; three balled-up squares should be plenty.

Three squares should be enough to start.

Reach around and behind your butt, and lean onto the opposing cheek.

It's crucial to remain seated.

Wipe with the pointer, middle, and ring fingers of your acting hand under the toilet paper. Have your middle finger slightly raised with your pointer and ring fingers resting partially behind.

Proper pressure and finger placement.

Use moderate pressure and wipe at a cautious speed from front to back. Continue with this step, using the same size wad of tissue, until the amount of remnants on the paper decreases by fifty percent.

Front to back, ladies!

Follow the directions of Step 1 (with the reduced paper amount), using increasing pressure with each wipe. Continue until the amount of remnants on the tissue decreases to a small amount.

Be sure to check your progress.

As you pass over your anus, relax the sphincter muscles and slightly press the pad of your middle finger into the opening, continuing the progression from front to back. Repeat this step until there is very little to no remnants transferring onto the paper.

Don't be afraid to enter, just a little.
