Bidets are definitely not a common feature in the US but it's not as if
most people haven't heard of them.

Also uncommon: urinals. We had a urinal in one bathroom when we lived
in Bangkok. My mother refused to let Dad or my brothers use it for that
purpose. She said, I'm not cleaning that. Use the toilet like everyone
else." LOL She kept a vase of fresh flowers in the urinal.
