Why do people wash their hands after dumping or peeing?

[bricksarehardarara]

i dont see the point, i dunno about u but when i take a crap, my hand never comes into contact with my ass, its always behind thick sheets of paper. are their people out there who really accidentlly slip their hands into their ass and get their hands covered in shit? that seems real clumsy to me, i also dont accidentally piss on my hands either, so dont see the need to wash them after a piss, my dick is jus dry skin, there's no germs on it at all

BUT YOU TOUCH YOUR DICK WHEN YOU PULL IT OUT TO PEE.

Okay, suppose you have an STI that and it has setup shop between your legs? True you have a wad of toilet paper you are about to chock down the toilet. The back of your hand comes in contact with the just about ripe blisters of a scrotching herpes outbreak. Then you get off the throne without washing your hands. Then you go back to your job making sub sandwiches. A customer eats said sandwich and several days later calls back and said that she has a bad case of herpes in her mouth.

I can never get a std cos I never had sex and never will probably

[TsAubreyKate]

Yea and it’s not some Pakistani food truck those people in sub places have to wear gloves

People touch their faces approximately 2,346 times a day. Germs can be transported from your genitals and anus to your face incredibly easily, and even more so to surfaces that you touch and that others might touch, thus risking themselves when they in turn touch their face. You can very easily transport stds (no, you don't always need to have sex to have an std), pinworms (which you can basically re-infect yourself indefinitely with bad hygiene), gastroenteritis (which is the most common cause of diarrhea and is contagious) and diarrhea is the second-leading cause of death among children under 5. It can also prevent pink eye and trachoma. Never underestimate the power of good hygiene practices.

Their are germs all over your body, regardless of rather its dry or not. Even if you don't touch your ass, that paper is touching your ass and your touching the paper. 2nd washing your hands just makes them cleaner and less likely to you and other people sick

i learned something today

[D_Bone_Steak]

After I poop and pee, I just lick my fingers... it works for the cat. The only reason I have to take a shower so often is because I can't lick my own balls.

[bricksarehardarara]

Yeah. I agree. I'm the same

[jshm2]

Hmmm... what age are you kiddo? 12? 14?

Or perhaps you're homeschooled, which is why you're this dense and don't understand how particles spread?

[bricksarehardarara]

I'm old man, I'm not dumb, I jus don't care about shit that doesn't matter much, I never went to school, couldn't be bothered.. useless info, boring blah blah blah

All I do is videogame,
If I wanted to learn something I'd look it up on YouTube,
But unfortunately nothing seems interesting enough for me to look up. Nothings worth learning unless it helps you in some way in my opinion, and basically nothing you learn growing up is useful accept your language

[bricksarehardarara]

Except°

[horatiohornblower]

Because bacteria and viruses can pass through toilet paper.

[bricksarehardarara]

how u know? people assume this stuff but i dont think anyone actually has seen a documentary about that for proof

[Anonymous]

Because you touch your penis when you piss, and your penis is covered in germs. So is the handle on the toilet when you flush your shit. And the toilet seat. And from your sweat. Just wash your hands. You're disgusting.

[taylorallen]

Germs are microscopic. There's a lot even if there feels like there's none.

[bricksarehardarara]

but they dont jus fly through the air and land on ur hand simply cos ur hand is near it, not in the space of that time anyway, i think u have to actually touch ur butt to contract any germs from it, which i do not, there is no germs on clean toilet paper

[taylorallen]

you're telling me if you shit you don't touch the seat or the rim. because if you don't, you probably do you're just not aware of every time, and also you're a guy so you touch your dick when peeing. at least normal guys do.

[bricksarehardarara]

maybe im jus living in caveman times, germs dont worry me and paranoia me like most people these days, unless i actually touched shit or did something thats actually gross, little germs i can't even see dont bother me

[taylorallen]

Typical male.

[LiamSawyer]

You tell him Taylor as he needs to be educated. There is a reason all restaurants have signs in the washrooms the health department insists on, saying "wash and sanitize your hands after using the facilities".

[JohnK123]

@LiamSawyer (liability) 😂

[Friendlybro79]

This is ridiculous lol. Wash your f'ing hands man. Grow up.. If you're even serious

[Anonymous]

So you wouldn't mind shaking hands with a guy who was handling his dick a few minutes earlier and hasn't washed his hands since wrangling the whale?

[bricksarehardarara]

depends if he has foreskin or not, touching ur dick skin is no different than ur arm skin, jus cos its in ur underwear doesn't make it any more dirtyy, so uh why not?

[bricksarehardarara]

dicks are mostly dry and dont produce a sticky slimey moisture like a vag

[OddBeMe]

Because fecal matter travels quite far and your hands touch a lot of things.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

This is a terrible troll attempt *sigh*

[bricksarehardarara]

im serious, i dont see the need, i guess im jus a lot more careful than most people. and most people slip and get their hands covered in shit? does that happen to u?

[TsAubreyKate]

Maybe because he wasn’t trolling

[exitseven]

I do it because my mother told me to

[CreamySeed]

Just dont make my sandwich

[jahaims]

That isn't how bacteria works lmfao

[jahaims]

Toilet paper is permeable and per your other replies bacteria does just float around lol especially when you flush

[Iron_Man]

We have to be clean

[devoygf]

it's hygienic

[Anonymous]

Cleanliness
