You won't believe the reaction one woman got when she refused to provide her guest with toilet paper
- Replies 17
Toilet paper is one of those essentials you'd think would be an absolute must-have in any home. We can't think of a single household that could go without a roll of toilet paper.
But, believe it or not, one woman has managed to go without toilet paper – and she's also denying guests access to the same convenience too.
Allie – an American TikToker who goes by the handle @lovegood_allie – is doing her best to lead a holistic lifestyle by ditching toilet paper and claiming she has saved thousands in the process.
In a re-enactment video, Allie shares how her family reacts when visiting her home. In it, she can be seen responding to an incredulous guest who asked her where her toilet paper is. Allie replies with: ‘I don’t have toilet paper, I have a bidet.’
The guest, who was taken aback, responds with ‘what the ffff? you really don’t have toilet paper?’
Allie explains the financial and environmental benefits of using a bidet before showing how to use it.
‘Yeah, no, toilet paper doesn’t get you clean,’ she said. In some countries (mostly South East Asia, South Asia and Middle Eastern countries), bidets are more widely used, instead of, or together with, toilet paper to cleanse themselves after doing their business.
‘But I can show you the bidet,’ she adds.
‘So, sit down like normal…and this button controls “on” and the pressure of the water that’s going to come out,’ she stated as she showed her bidet’s control.
She also reminded her ‘guest’ not to turn the dial all the way up because they will get ‘blasted’. Now more baffled than before, the guest calls Allie ‘weird’ and proceeds to ask for a ‘napkin’, 'tissue’ or ‘a paper towel’.
However, Allie said she doesn’t have those either. Finally, the guest caves and tries the ‘stupid bidet’.
Her video, which has been viewed over 680,000 times, left many TikTok users unimpressed.
‘I would still keep toilet paper around at least for guests,’ one wrote.
Another agreed and said she should give her guests a ‘heads-up’ or at least keep some toilet paper for when guests come over. ‘Being caught off guard by that isn’t nice,’ they added.
‘But after it blasts water all over me, I’m going to need to dry,’ one commented.
‘And what do you offer the guests after the bidet – air dry?’ One quipped.
One stated that the only reason they haven’t bought a bidet is that they wanted to be dry when they were done being on the toilet. To which Allie responded: ‘A washable cloth does much better, it’s eco-friendly and cancer-causing chemical free.’

Contrary to what Allie claimed in her video, there is no evidence associating the use of fragrant products like perfume, toilet paper, and baby wipes with an increased risk of cancer in humans. Although some of these products have been shown to cause cancer in lab animals.
In Australia, fragrance ingredients are regulated by the National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme. The regulations state that fragrant products sold in the country must contain ‘fragrance’ or ‘perfume’ on the product label.
