Really gross question!?!
Question: please don't judge-- sometimes when i go number 2, i bleed a tiiiny bit from my anus. i don't have anal sex of any kind, i guess it just happens. if i take a number 2 in a dorm toilet and i bleed, is it necessary to take a shower immediately after? could i get an std?

Sounds to me you need to start using some sort of 'stool softeners' the skin around your *** and the skin tissue in it is very sensitive so when you go number 2 if its rough its going to tear a little, get a stool softener and you will be fine, but you do need to wash thoroughly because you don't want any bacteria getting in there causing infections or hemroids.
Are you recently sexual active?
This is normal for people at times. It could be excessive stress also.
So don't panic =)
I ask this how long has this been going on? Could it be food you eat, something you drink, or a medicine thats ingested. These are all things you need to look at and using WebMD symptom checker and myself as the general focus I have a few possabilites for you. But use yourself and see what comes up. And then call the clinic and get in, could be serious could not be, best to be safe then regret it later.

stop thinking in terms of grossness and think more in terms of health care.
Since you appear to be in a college? dorm, visit the campus health service and talk to a doctor, to make sure you don't have a serious bowel problem.
You may need to make some changes to your diet or drink more water to avoid piles etc in the future - and piles can become a pain is the @ss.
No bleeding is not normal! You need to consume more natural fiber(fruits and veggies) or psyllium hulls its not expensive. I bet you are constipated and that is NOT normal, people need to have a bowel movement at least once or twice a day not every other day. If you are bleeding then you need to also improve your circulation(exercise).You could get hemorrhoids or something! Try eating more fiber naturally do not take commercial laxatives it could make things worst by aggravating your colon. Also drink lots and lots of water 1 liter for every 50 pounds. no soda or juice or beer . If you are dehydrated it will make things worst on your elimination process. Also don't eat bread or you'll get constipated and fat eventually.
Perhaps you need a stool softener or more fruit in your diet. It sounds like you may have a tiny hemmorhoid. No, you don't need a shower and it has nothing to do with an STD.
