I am surprised that drapg hasn't posted in this thread. I have a pretty good idea what his stance is on this, but nonetheless I think whatever he posts in this thread is going to be a hoot. Come on drapg, post in this thread your stance!
It's a wonder some of you guys get any service from women at all. For anyone in that situation: I'm surprised she doesn't make you wash it completely first, with soap and hot water. On the other hand, maybe hygiene isn't important to her. (think about it...)
I'm guessing then that none of you... swim in public pools, lakes or the ocean eat out of any container that anyone else eats out of sits down in a public place reads magazines at the doctor's office I could go on and on with things that have just as much chance of being as poorly sanitized, if not worse, than the average person after taking a piss and not washing his/her hands.
It's more about respect for yourself (and at least taking some steps to cut down on the crap (maybe quite literally) you come in contact with) and respect for others who might come in contact with you. I've just always looked at it as a common courtesy, mostly.
Do you use your elbows to open the doors too? I wash my hands a lot. I work in a lab, and with all that E. coli, chemicals, and other stuff around, I wash religiously. I wish every sink was like the airport, where the faucets turn on automatically and there aren't any doors to open (except for the stalls).
Rarely but they normally are clorinated to death Why, cause a fish pooped in the water? not too concerned about that. Definately not. I don't understand this one. Definatley not. The only place more germ ridden than bathrooms is doctor offices. So that means it isn't worth washing your hands?
I have always been completely baffled by how people in the past were so stupid to not realize that the number one cause of death in surgery (infections) can be drastically reduced by something as obvious as washing your hands. Now I know why. I can't believe in the 21st century there are still people trying to justify or rationalize NOT washing hands. Did you know that it's also a good idea to wash your hands before you eat? To periodically wash your hands to wash away the germ accumulation? No? Next time you go to a restaurant where their bathroom that you see their kitchen staff is also using is out of soap, just keep telling yourself that urine is sterile (and hope they don't take dumps).
I aint no germophobe but I still think it's gross. To me it's basic hygiene. You bath everyday (we hope), you wash your hands when you go. Maybe I am a germophobe. I even hate when people are talking to you and scratch their crotch (over the pants of course) randomly. Gross-o-rama.
people should definitely wash their hands after doing their dirty work, especially when you're gonna participate in anything that has to do with food. but can't it be bad (relatively speaking) for you, if you're too clean? from what i understand, your body builds antibodies daily against germs and bacteria. so you get a few germs here and there and slowly you become immune to them. then, when the day comes where you happen to accidently get hit by alot of them, you won't become as sick as someone who's never been exposed to those germs. nevertheless, one should always wash their hands.
