In Short
Yes. Sustainable here doesn't mean perfect, but less unnecessarily burdensome. For the body and the environment.
Why We Think This Is Normal
Intimate hygiene is something private. We rarely think about trash, the resources it takes to ship things, water use, or ingredients. As long as it's clean. The fact that paper, butt wipes, and packaging get used up every day runs under habit, not decision.
The Honest Explanation
Sustainable intimate hygiene mainly means: less single-use, less chemistry, less friction.
Dry paper requires resources and often irritates the skin. Butt wipes contain additives and don't belong in the wastewater. Water cleans directly, without any consumable. That's neither radical nor ideological, just plain efficient.
Is That True?
„A butt shower uses more resources“
No. A short jet of water replaces several layers of paper.
„Sustainable means unhygienic“
No. Cleanliness and the environment don't rule each other out.
„Butt wipes are the best solution“
Convenient in the short term, maybe. Problematic in the long run.
„This is just a lifestyle topic“
It's everyday life. Nothing more.
Where We Stand
Sustainability doesn't have to be visible. If less trash is created and the skin suffers less, that's argument enough.
A Gentle Next Step
Take a moment to consider what you use up every day just to get clean. Then see whether there's an easier way.
