Are you supposed to flush toilet paper?

Only flush the 3 P's: pee, poo, and paper (toilet paper). Toilet paper is specifically designed to break down in the water. Although paper towels, napkins, and facial tissue appear to be of the same material, they do not disintegrate in water the way toilet paper does.

European toilets use less water (and may have the dual-flush option that lets users choose a lighter flush for liquid waste), and there's less splashback and less noise involved.

France, Portugal, Italy, Japan, Argentina, Venezuela, and Spain all use bidets, they'll often have toilet paper available in public spaces for tourists, but homes would all have bidets installed. Japan is the one Asian stand-out in that they adopted bidets rather than other ways of washing the bum.
