How do you wipe your butt without using the whole roll?

I've never had this problem before but it's harder to wipe my butt after I take a dump. I have to use a lot of paper. And it may seem clean after a few wipes but later it'll itch and feel uncomfortable and I'll have to wipe again. Nothing beats water and soap but how do people manage with just 1 square of toilet paper it doesn't seem possible.

How does washing your hands with soap and water reduce bacterial infections?

Soap pulls oil away from your skin. How does this help in any way? Do bacteria like oil? Do they need it to survive? Do the bacteria simply get washed away?

How do girls remove their armpit hair without leaving red bumps and removing all of it?

Every time I shave my armpits in the shower, I end up accidentally cutting myself, not removing all the hair, or having red bumps appear. I want to know how girls remove their armpit hair so well? I have complications with that.
I use the Schick Intuition Plus Sensitive Care razor and soap when shaving.
I have really sensitive skin. D:
So I have to be really careful with what I use.

How long can a sperm cell live outside the human body?

I have read many different things, i read that the sperm cells die right when they hit the air, i also read that it takes 1 to 4 hours for them to die. So i have two questions....
1. How long can the sperm cell live outside the body?
2. Would washing the sperm with water and soap speed up the death process?

So my cat has acne.. what now?

My cat has had acne on and off since kittenhood.. We bought prescription strength treatment from our vet and it didn't help. We bought benzoyl peroxide wipes from the store - didn't help (you can't find these ANYWHERE anymore). I don't use plastic bowls - only ceramic. I wash their bowls often with hot water and soap. I don't know what else to do. We have a new vet since the last one we got creams from but he's so expensive and nothing else has worked. Any home remedies that won't hurt her? It looks so bad and scabby.. I feel awful.
I don't think Proactive has made a cat version yet... lol
