The people who don't wash their hands seem to believe that the only reason to wash is if they get pee on themselves.

I have to imagine they only bathe if they pee their pants or something.

They don't seem to have a problem with people touching their genitals or dirty surfaces and then immediatly handling other people's food, shaking hands, or sucking on their fingers.

The answer is exactly what you think it is: laziness.

lmao, this whole comment section is hilarious. everyone knows you should only pee and poop in the shower. that way you never have to wash your hands! #WAFFLESTOMP

I also wash before I go, because your junk has it's own ecosystem. So, what ever is in your daily surroundings doesn't belong downstares and what ever is in your downstairs doesn't belong in your daily surroundings.

I like tagging the people that think they have a good reason for not washing their hands. It's fun seeing them in the wild.

The instant you touch literally any surface in that bathroom - public or private - you have somebody's poop on you.

For that reason alone, you should wash your hands.

In fact, I know one guy who washes the public toilet seat - soap and all - before he sits. Can't blame him, really.

For the people that say their junk is clean from shower, do y'all not get swamp crotch like at all? Just stays clean and dry down there all day no matter what? Lucky bastards if so, but I find that highly unbelievable. And no errant droppage after going? Resheath and "oh no! Strays hit the ultra clean barrier!"?

I wash the engine grease off first. Then take a load off and sit down. The real question is, "Why do kids pee on the seat?" WHY GOD WHY

Sometimes I do it before, not after, because UTI. Hands are dirtier than any other part of you, generally speaking. Usually after, but it's just an opportunity to wash my hands in general - I don't really think touching toilet paper to my pussy is going to get my hands dirty. So yeah, I wash my hands because it's a convenient time to do that.

I usually do, but when I don't - because I didn't piss on them

I strengthening my immune system

I'm vegan. My poop is actually cleaner than the rest of the world

I have a minor hand washing compulsion, but it's not a germophobia thing. While I would prefer everyone wash their hands after using the bathroom, it doesn't gross me out like some other things, like nose-picking.

Lots of excreta aerosolize or otherwise get everywhere. While hand washing is a low bar to improving hygiene, shit is literally everywhere. Want to see something scary (depending on your squeamishness)? Get a 350nm UV flashlight and check out your home. Hell, try it right after you do a deep clean.

Because I believe my actions in the "third" act will more accurately define how much of a monster I truly am.

I do wash my hands since I try to be hygienic. But many people most likely don't due to laziness
