Washing hands after urinating?!


Question: I am just going to go ahead and say it. Generally, I do not wash my hands after urinating. I do not see the point. The only thing I touch while in the bathroom is my penis. My penis does not have any STDs and is as clean as the rest of my body. People give penises a bad reputation. Its just skin.


So please give me a good reason to start washing my hands. (I walk into and out of bathrooms generally without touching doors, toilets,etc. I touch NOTHING)

It's good to wash your hands in general, to prevent the spread of "viruses and bacteria."
Your hands may be clear of STI's and STD's, but you may have a cold on your hand from contact with a doorknob or a waterfountain. If you bite your nails, or eat with your hands, or touch someone else's hand, you will get yourself or someone else sick.
It happens, but it's not deadly or anything.

i wash my hands when i am using a public bathroom which is hardly ever but at home i dont my penis is clean my bathroom is clean no need to waste clean water washing clean hands

At the risk of being laughed at (or worse) I stand up and wave my hands and say, "me too." I will in a public wahroom, but at home, why? I don't immediately wash my hands after scratching my arm pit. Does anyone?
3 men in a washroom. First one washes his hands over and over. Says "My dad is a doctor. He taught me to be hygenic." Second one washes briefly and only uses one towel. He says "My dad is an accountant. He taught me to be thrifty." Third man leaves without washing and says "My dad is a farmer. He taught me not p!ss on my hands."

You may think that you have a clean penis but there are still germs on it. How would you feel if a waiter stuck his hand down his trousers and then served you food? not nice eh!!! I could never use the toilet and not wash hands. Also have you thought that there are other men using toilet who have dirty willys and then you touch where they have put dirty hands!!!! Its impossible not to touch anything in a toilet - how do you open a door?

If you aren't worried about yoursellf, try worrying about touching something with your unwashed hands that someone else may touch. You can't see bacteria or viruses--how do you know that you aren't passing them along to the rest of us?? I hope you don't live in Wisconsin--I don't want to be anywhere you are..

Your penis is confined inside your underewear, I pursume ... There in the damp and warmth .. grows bacteria that DOES spread to your penis itself ....
By not washing your hands .. you might rub an eye or eat something causing the bacteria to get inside your body ... THEN ; you are very easily to catch a cold, sore throat , a strep of some kind ... or worse ....
It is a good idea to wash the hands before each meal , after using the bathroom .. no matter what you did .... and about thre or four times on-off during the day ....

Well most people flush the toilet and grap the door handle. It's also just a good idea to wash your hands to get rid of any germs that might be on them.

I guess that's okay at home, but if you're in a public toilet or workplace toilet I suggest you wash your hands always.
