[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my observations - the using of a wash cloth is cultural if not ethnic.

All my black family and friends use wash cloths.

My white friends do not - loofah at best (the women) but most say they don't (I did a casual fun poll during the height of pandemic as it was a group chat topic).

If it matters - washcloths are not re-used. A new washcloth for every shower - and generally speaking two are used - one for face and one for body. They are then tossed in laundry. We keep stack of washcloths in our homes.

My black family and friends are amazed that white people don't do this automatically - and we are grossed out. The topic also brought up the issue of not washing legs/feet and instead letting the "water/soap" from up top do the job.

So - in summary, the true difference between the races are uses of washcloths and seasoning. Also - this is all in fun. Don't get weird.

+1 to all this. My black friends turned me on to the fresh washcloth and they were so right. My skin is so much softer.[/quote]

Came on here to say that lots of Black folks would be horrified by some of the responses here. You must scrub that *ss crack with a washcloth, legs too - how do you get the dirt off??!?? Using hands or the soap bar just doesn't cut it.  [/quote]

I am not covered in a thick coating of mud. What exactly am I vigorously scrubbing off?[/quote]
