      My mom doesn’t wash her hands either.

      That’s why I’m kinda reluctant to go for a hug… eww germs, mom wtf

      Honestly my dad wash his hands more often than mom does…

      Just an anecdote tho, I wonder what the general population stats are.

      I told my mom to wash her hands and she says I’m “OCD”

      Ahhhhh wtf this triggers my germophobia so much.

        I’ve actually seen those (or rather some quite similar to them) in the wild a few times. They’re not very convenient to use (because the seat is in the way) even though you can’t help but think they’re a great idea each time you use them.

          I’m not going to bother to research, but I’m sure there must be models where the sink faces the side of the toilet. It’d take up more space, but still less space than a totally separate sink and toilet.

        You have to straddle the toilet backwards to use it pressing your member against the back of the toilet and sit down after peeing. 4/5 Stars.

        Public men’s restrooms make me not want to shake hands with anyone. The number of men who walk out straight past the sinks without stopping is alarming and disgusting.

          When I worked fast food, I usually had to fill the men’s soap but rarely the women’s soap.

          This could mean the place had more male traffic, women don’t wash their hands as often, or something else. Who knows.

            women don’t wash their hands as often

            I could believe this. Not saying the men’s are much better as I’d say they’re definitely just as bad, but my wife used to tell me horror stories about the women’s restrooms before she swore off ever using one again outside of emergencies.

            It’s absolutely gross. I literally think about it every time a Boomer socially pressures a handshake with me, and I try not to touch anything else until I can wash my hands or at least get some sanitizer. Idk if any individual is guilty of it, but enough strangers are that I’m not taking chances.

        I’m borderline obsessive about it personally. Like after bathroom, right before eating, and right after some gardening. And it is fucking disgusting how many dudes I witness in public restrooms walk straight out. I used to call them out, but it’s not worth the hassle anymore.

        But from a purely subjective pov, never touch another dude’s hands because odds are they haven’t washed them in days.

      I decide if I’m going to wash them based on the state of the bathroom. If all they have is air dryers (or worse, a single fabric towel… shudders) then I’m probably not gonna wash them. You can keep your filthy germ blowers thanks. Taps look dirtier than the urinals? Forget it. If the bathroom is clean, then ye sure, otherwise I just use hand sanitizer

        My dude, bandanas exist. Clean hands on your own bandana is as good as it gets.

        Find what they call trainman, signalman or similar ones. They’re bigger, tend to be easy to find in thicker fabric, and can do other jobs as well.

        As you roll up to the sink, pull the bandana out, drape it around your neck. Wash, shake a little, grab the bandana and dry off.

        It’ll go right back in your pocket and not cause any problems very slightly damp. If need be, leave it hanging loosely around the neck or out of the pocket so it’ll dry.

      Why would you wash your hands if you didn’t piss or get shit on them?

        If anything, your hands are dirtier than your junk. Your junk sits behind clothing. Your hands are out touching things all the time.

        Wash your hands before touching your dick. 😌

        But also: If you touch anything to flush the toilet, you should wash 'em again after.

          Also the bathroom door handles make the washing you just did pointless.

          Like, I’ll always wash my hands after taking a shit, but it doesn’t really seem necessary if I touched my dick for a literal second to pull it out and put it up. And depending on the clothing I don’t even need to touch it.

            I got some wasabi powder transfer once going to the bathroom while working as a cook. Learned that lesson real quick.

        Imagine going to shake hands with someone and they drag their hand through their moist armpit first. Would you want to shake that hand?

        No?

        Then why would you want to shake their hand if it’s been in their sweaty junk pile? Backspatter of piss aside.

          Do you make people shower before you suck their dick?

          I don’t because I like it extra cheesy.

        I mean, it’s less cleanup for you if you do it in your neighbor’s sink.

    Then men would have no reason to leave without washing their hands. Seriously dudes, I’m pleading over here, soap and water.

      You think the dudes that don’t wash their hands are worried about flushing?

      Most urinals flush automatically. Probably for that exact reason.
