I'm not sure what you mean by wiping as there isn't much information in your question. However if you mean wiping when on the toilet then the correct wiping method is wiping back to front until the tissue is clean. Wiping from back to front after urination can cause urinary tract infections by bringing bacteria from the rectal area forward into the vagina. The proper method is to wipe from front to back and then drop the tissue, unfortunately we usually do these things the way ours mothers did, whether it was right or wrong. Both of the above answers are correct. Males can wipe back to front, but females should wipe front to back so any bacterial from the feces will not get near the vagina causing an infection. For males, when wiping from back to front, it's best to hold your testicles up and out of the way with one hand while wiping with the other. Less is more with the TP, too. use about 5 sheets, folded, not clumped or wadded. And do not wipe further than you need to. Just clean the anus, don't drag it up onto your taint.
