Hm, odd question. Women should never wipe that way as they increase their risk of urinary tract infection.
Never, eek. The thought of doing that makes me want to curl up at the UTI, yeast infection, and BV potential, personally. Always front to back and each wipe (after a #2) gets a fresh little wad of TP followed by either sensitive-skin, fragrance-free baby wipes or Summer's Eve cleansing cloths just to get a fresh feeling, haha.
But yeah, women should always go front to back.
