What is up with this disgusting thing I have noticed that is alarming me?

Question

Lately, I have been noticing that women are not washing their hands after using the restroom. I live in a dorm and we have a community bathroom so see other girls in there all the time. It bothers me because the types of girls that are doing this are the ones that I would not expect. All of them that I have noticed have been attractive, caucasian (I'm sure they aren't the only race but they are the only one I have personally observed), dressed very well in expensive clothes, and they come out of the stall and leave. It bothers me because it makes me wonder if the high classed looking cook in a restaurant has washed her hands or my gorgeous friend that I high-five has a hand full of germs. PLEASE teach your girls to wash their hands, not just for other people's sake but for their own.

Answer 1

Women touch less when they go to the bathroom. Personally if a bathroom is really crowded I won't wash my hands, instead i'll use my purel. Everything in a bathroom has germs, the less you touch the better. Most people don't even wash their hands the right way anyways.

Answer 2

Most public bathroom sinks are so nasty I think washing my hands there would do more harm than good. Not to mention you have to touch the door handle on the way out, which is covered in germs. I always keep purell in my purse and use that after I leave the restroom.

My daughter is allergic to mosts soaps, so she absolutely cannot use public restroom soap, so she, too, uses purell. At school, she keeps a bottle on the teachers desk to use after she uses the restroom and before lunch.

Answer 3

Post a copy of an article of the disgusting things that can come from not washing go an find the 1 that is most explicit and has the most visual examples, then watch what happens and who fast the people spread the infos about what it can cause it will be more contagious than the germs spread frm not washing

Answer 4

Urine is sterile coming out -of course the other thing is not, nor are the doors & handles, so this isn't a good reason not to wash, LOL! Also the taps & sinks are often quite germy and several people I know use moist towelettes rather than using the sink at a public restroom.

Answer 5

Urine is a sanitary liquid, and women don't touch themselves to urinate. There aren't germs to migrate through the tissue paper. I wash my hands in a public restroom because of the surroundings, not my own urine, but as a matter of fact, public restrooms are usually cleaner than our own because they are cleaned every day. Yes, feces can spread germs through the tiolet paper, but not everyone is defecating.

If it bothers you, keep some purell on you and use it periodically. And remember, you don't ever know if someone has washed their hands, race or job regardless. Use the purell, take yor vitamins, take a deep breathe, and relax.

Answer 6

Most people don't wash thier hands correctly when they do. Put the paper towel down, soap up hands, get paper towel, turn off water with it, then open the door with the paper towel.
My mom doesn't wash her hands because she says public bathrooms are gross and she's better off using her bacterial wash afterword.
I wash my hands the correct way, not washing your hands spreads germs, spreading the flu and such.

Answer 7

Maybe you could make a sign and sneek into the restroom and place it on the wall - like...

DONT FORGET TO WASH YOUR HANDS
you never know whos watching

Answer 8

actually, most guys do wash their hands, at least if someone else is around

i saw a co-worker leave without washing, and i never thought of him the same afterward

Answer 9

every one should wash hands after using the bathroom, but alot of people don't.

Answer 10

I guess popular, attractive girls think their sh.it doesn't stink and it won't cause infections and sickness just like everyone elses. I hate it when people don't wash their hands. Especially in public bathrooms. Makes you think what other things they don't wash OR wipe.
