Same. People spend a lot of brain power thinking/fretting about things I've never given two moments of thought to. It must make it hard to get through the day.
So go on a site that's about saving the world and boosts your brain power and leave us commoners alone. Ugh.
Always irritates me that people can't just have the simple pleasure of talking shit or ruminating over nonsense without the "don't you have lives" losers interjecting. I have a life. I also work from home. I liken it to water cooler talk / taking a break / being silly for silly sake. It's not that serious.
Get over yourself and move around if this isn't your lane.

The luxury of working from home. All that time to obsess over the details to a perfect life(tm)

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.

We don’t use wash cloths- it’s gross. All that bacteria and germs living on that cloth. Probably growing fungus. And then you use it on your face and body? No thanks!

Is anyone's kid about to do a science fair? I would like them to swab a bar of soap for bacteria.

But where do you use it first, the next time you shower? Your face? So essentially you are putting fecal matter on your face.

Who the hell is using a bar of body soap on their face?
I use a bar of dove in the shower for my face and body.

I have never figured out how to use a washcloth/loofah. It sits there drying and getting stinky. Or I’ve added a new daily chore to my list.
DH is probably hairier than you. All that good foaming friction!

If you rub a bar of soap between your butt cheeks after pooping, peeing, sweating all day and expect it to me germ free by the time you wash your face in the morning… think of all the people who leave hairs on the soap. No one is scrubbing the soap clean, the bacteria is layered and drying on the top.
I think you need to start thinking about the bar of soap the same way you think about a towel. You don’t take the towel, use it on your bum, then right on your face the next day. You wash it between uses. Same thing with a bar of soap. When you lather it and rinse it, it’s clean. There is no layering of bacteria on soap that you lather each time.
I don’t do this myself but this isn’t unsanitary.
I have a bar of soap I use to clean the other bar of soap.
For the love of god please tell me this is a joke.
