Obviously there was an age before toilet paper. Different methods for cleaning one's self have ranged in time and place. But one thing is for certain, a King isn't going to be expected to do it himself, especially with the more hand's on aspects of former methodologies.

The question is, would you do it, or opt for the job. If the job involved cleaning a man's back side twice or sometimes up to three times a day, which would only take about 45 seconds to do, but you were then free the whole rest of the day and lived a relatively ok lifestyle financially, would you do it?

In other words, would you rather clean a man's ass for 2m15s a day and live in the past or work a modern job 8-10 hours a day?

some have suggested

Pretty much anyone that studies history and etymology suggest.

Privy councillor was a royal arse washer and you dont want anyone you dont trust being the only person getting that close to a monarch unless you want them dead.

As a result they got more private time with that monarch than their other half.
