Because a lot of fear, outright ignorance, misconceptions, and other internalized beliefs.
In some cases people talk about “shit water running down my legs!”, so I don’t think they can visualize the water falling down into the bowl, and leaning a bit to one side to wipe dry. Or (possibly? idk) they think you stand up to use the bidet.
Another one is fear of the spray spreading bacteria around, or the like.
Then there is that the admittedly low bar for entry of installing the bidets is enough friction to not deviate from scraping-based insanity.
I got mine in pandemic during the TP outages. I have gone through so little TP since then. My girlfriend accounts for 95% of its usage because she won’t use it.
Best argument for getting a bidet I’ve heard. Imagine getting poo anywhere on your body, you’d be rinsing it off with water. Why not your butthole? Needless to say I have one in each of my bathrooms.
Get a bidet. Get a bidet. Get a bidet.
Why are we still neanderthals about this?

Wise move. Yep, I got one of those mega packs of tp around April of ‘21, still have entire rolls left. That pack cost ~ $13.
Also, my deepest condolences regarding your girlfriend. Not all can, or will, accept a better way when shown one.
