This is a dumb question........I hear a lot about irrigation. How do you train yourself for an every other day event, meanwhile you wear some sort of plug...until that time arrives...Why couldn't you just train yourself for an every other day event, by taking out the plug every other day to relieve yourself? Once your body got used to it....even once a day might be helpful...just pull the plug at a certain time every day........not sure why this might not work? The only downfall I could see is if you're gassy, it might fly out and put someone's eye out....just wondering
