[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What clothing borne pathogen are you trying to avoid here?[/quote]

1st response writer: literally almost anything with a fecal-oral transmission route, all of which is routinely found in samples of laundry that is “not that dirty.”[/quote]

I hate to exacerbate your debilitating anxiety, but literally *everything* can be "fecal-oral" transmission. Remote control, laptop, home doorknobs (let alone *GASP* public doorknobs!), clothes hangers you touch over and over again, the sink handles, the towel racks, your shoelaces, your makeup brushes, your hairbrushes, your hair styling tools and products, etc. If you washed your hands every time you touched anything that could have micro fecal particles on them, your hands would be raw.

I sincerely am so grateful that I'm not a germophobe - it sounds exhausting and horrible for your immune system. [/quote]

New poster. Wow, you are invested in diagnosing that PP as having "debilitating anxiety." Maybe you need another hobby? Unless you're a magical over the internet psychiatrist?....

I"m not a germaphobe but I wash my hands after putting laundry into the washer if the laundry includes underwear. I think the reason for that is self-evident. I don't know why you'd be fine with putting a load of underwear into the washer then just carrying on....It's just common sense to wash after handling underwear, like it's common sense to wash after using the toilet and wiping your ass. Or is that being a germaphobe too?

I do not wash my hands after transferring laundry to the dryer or at other times associated with laundry, though.[/quote]
