I’m constantly befuddled by the American desire to avoid handheld shower heads. How do you wash your armpits and asshole? Answer? You really don’t, you’re nose blind. I can still smell you, because I pressure wash mine with enough force to cleave marble.
This is an oddly specific misconception. Where do you get that idea? It’s fairly standard here for showers to have either a detachable head or separate wand. Cheap hotels and rentals might have shitty showerheads, but that’s definitely not specific to the US.
The current style trend is one that tends toward installing wall and ceiling shower heads in the US. I confirmed it with my friend who is involved with design and distribution of bathrooms fixtures. Tubs are out, tile showers with fixed soft water heads are in.
I wouldn’t be able to tell you about many other countries without offering information about myself that I’m not interested in spreading, but some countries are nearly 100% handheld. The gap between trending away from and near-ubiquity is pretty visible
…You can’t raise your arms or bend over slightly? Even a garbage motel shower can hit all my bits. Plus we have soap and washcloths here, or loofahs or those plastic poof things if that’s more your style. If you’re relying on water pressure rather than the surfactant properties of soap I suggest you get off your hygienic high-horse.
I get that you’re doing a bit with the sniff thing, but I genuinely don’t understand how armpits benefit from a handheld sprayer. You can still get your pit pretty close to a mounted one, and it doesn’t take that much pressure to wash off soap.
It just makes things far easier, faster, and more complete, being able to direct the stream at your soapy bits. Shorter distance means higher pressure which means shorter, more thorough showers.

You can’t imagine getting an area clean without a detachable head? We use soap and scrub while under the shower head.
*sniff*
Now it just seems like projection

If you keep sniffing people might just think you’re into that

The first handheld, detachable shower head was patented in the United States in 1889 by inventor Lucian L. Waterman.
Nominative determinism
You’d think they’d be ubiquitous by now, given that. Weird choice to invent something and trend away from it.
I have one of these and never use it, just assumed it was there to help those with vaginas get off
Pretty good for every crevice. Except toes, oddly enough.

Naturally I use soap. That it needs to be stated explicitly, well… *sniff*
