[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]For those of you who don't wash your hands, [u]do you realize that the person who used the public bathroom before you may have pooped and touched the stall lock [/u]and flushed the toilet BEFORE washing their hands? So when you're leaving without washing your hands...get it? It's gross![/quote]

A couple of you have mentioned this part.  I'm the first "I don't wash after pee, ever" poster.

Here's my reply to you:  once I enter the sanctum of the public restroom, at work, Costco, the NJ Turnpike, wherever ..[i]. I do not touch anything with my fingers.[/i]  That's right, nothing.  Not the door, not the lock, not the toilet, not the toilet paper holder, not the hook for your purse, not the faucet handle if there is one.  Nothing.

I have various quick ways of avoiding skin-to-metal contact when dealing with the doors, locks, etc.  I use:  the bottom hem of my shirt, a paper towel wrapped around my hand (grabbed as a walked in and headed toward my stall), sometimes i use my foot to flush or kick open a door on my way out.

Whatever it takes.  In 20-some years I've become very very fast at this, and very adept with my feet/hips and other non-finger body parts.

So no, I at least and not touching a shitty toilet handle or faucet handle.[/quote]

I hear ya, lady! I don't know what you people are doing that you are constantly getting pee on your hands, but I don't. On the rare occasion that it happens, of course I would wash my hands. However, I find any and all surfaces of public bathrooms to be far nastier than my own pee. Like this infamous PP (by the way, how can this thread have gone on this long without a PP pun joke?), I don't touch surfaces in public bathrooms. If I am alone, I would much rather not wash my hands and be touching faucets, paper towel dispensers, etc. if the restroom is particularly nasty. When I worked, I always did, mostly out of fear of being discovered as a non-washer. [/quote]
