Kudos to the creator for building this tool. Personally, I wouldn't trust it. Men and women use drastically different amounts of toilet paper.

Then it's up to you to average the number sheets and toilet visits, appropriately weighted to get the correct results!
the calculator doesn't handle that because how _many_ times you go is not a valuable metric. The question is more how many times do you _poo_ in a day. Because pee uses little to none (men) or little to some (women).

then there's the question of how many sheets you use, on average per poo. Some folks use way more than others.

this is a pretty useless calculator.

Did you tried the advanced options?
Live example of male bias in the tech industry! :)

That was totally my thinking as well. It's fine for me, but if my girlfriend is staying with me I should expect a 4X increase in need.
