Do you always wash your hands after using a public urinal?

If I’m at the gym after a workout, yes- because I had a case of MRSA I caught off a locker room countertop when I picked up a complimentary razor to shave my head.

No, if I didn’t touch my dick and only the waistband of my underwear and zipper.

You should also beware like that Seinfeld episode with the chef- that clients and coworkers may very much notice your hands aren’t wet stepping out of a bathroom.

ABSOLUTELY

Most of the time, no, I do not. I touch one single thing in a public restroom, and it's my clean dick.

Some of you are so gross.

As this microbiologist says:

[quote]“My urine is sterile, my penis is clean – have you any idea how many faecal organisms there are on that tap?”

I always wash my hands after I shit. I don't always wash my hands after I pee, unless I have been going through an area and touching a lot of public things, (door handles, escalator railing, etc..) or haven't washed my hands in a while. But then I usually wash them before I pee. I always wash my hands before I eat, so sometimes this coincides with just having peed.

[quote]Most of the time, no, I do not. I touch one single thing in a public restroom, and it's my clean dick.

So you don't flush?

R7, it's 2024. Most bathrooms have automatic flushers these days. This isn't the Port Authority 1987.

It depends entirely on the public urinal.

If the facility looks clean and well tended, if the plumbing looks like it functions properly, if there is a reasonable expectation of soap in the dispenser, and if there are paper towels to dry my hands, yes, I´ll wash and dry my hands on the principle that it´s good to wash one´s hands a number of times during the day, in proportion to one´s activity and venturing out into the world.

If, however, the facility looks like a runner up location for 'The Worst Toilet in Scotland', if the floor is absolutely filthy, if the sinks are obviously uncleaned for hours or days, if the taps like they might as easily piss their contents all over you as dispense onto your hands, if there is no way to turn on the taps without serious surface contact and quite possibly a wrench, if there are no fresh paper towels (waterlogged won't do), or if there is an ancient electric dryer that is unplugged or looks inoperable or filthier to use than not, then fuck no. Absolutely not, and without second guessing or regret. In the case of a disgusting toilet, I'm way better off not 'cleaning' my hands. My hands are on my dick untold times a day and I'm okay with that.

I've had filthy sex with filthy people in filthy places, but I did get sex out of that -- and never an infection that might have been prevented by the washing of my hands. But I'm not makiing my hands revoltingly dirty for the appearance of having cleaned them.

Yes, you people who don’t wash are disgusting animals

I wash my hands after I pee because it takes me 30seconds to 1 minute of fumbling in my deep untrimmed pubes to find my micro dick. Then I have to really hold it and stretch it so I don't pee my trousers. I'm uncut so dick smell always gets on my fingers even it its just the perfume not an actual smegma smear. 🤡🤮

I do, but I confess I hate the loud rattling hand dryers in some restrooms. I know they save paper, but often they come on for only short bursts and it takes me several attempts to get my hands reasonably dry.

R1 MRSA is no joke. I had a colleague pick it up in a hospital during childbirth, and it returns intermittently ever since. Some days, she has a boil on her face that she has to cover with a bandage, and then she applies makeup to the bandage. It looks like a terrible condition to manage.

I assume that most men who don’t wash their hands in the rest room use some sort of hand sanitizer after, but not all.

I can’t stand the “tacky” residue on my hands. I try to keep wipes in my briefcase instead of gels, because the wipes usually leave a less perceptible film.

I think some people damage their gut biomes by accidentally ingesting antibacterial compounds when using hand sanitizer and then handling a sandwich. We are learning that intestinal microfauna are really important to overall health, so I’m careful not to ingest anything that might harm them (including some artificial sweeteners).

You people and your filthy cocks. What are you doing during the day that you need to give your hands Silkwood showers after touching your dick?

You’re touching the door on the way out, you’ve got cooties either way.

"What are you doing during the day that you need to give your hands Silkwood showers after touching your dick?"

Fucking R14's skank ass.

No, seriously R16. What do you think happens in your underwear? It's actually the most covered body part that never comes into contact with anything after a shower. I can understand going to the gym, sweating, cleaning your dick, etc. But I would imagine during the course of the day, but cock remains MUCH cleaner than my hands do.

And R15, I am not grabbing the handle of the door either. You can push. If I see a handle I have to touch, I open the door with a paper towel.

R17 If the door opens inward, they should place a waste bin near it to enable people to open the door with a paper towel preventing contact with the door handle. You see that in many office buildings, especially government offices, hospitals, research centers.

Airports now often use a simple divider to step around when exiting the rest rooms. I travel business class, but notice that in some airports the bathrooms in the terminals are cleaner and better ventilated than those in business lounges. Restrooms in some business class lounges tend to be smaller and more cramped. And many don’t have sinks, but instead a counter that gently slopes into a drain. It looks sleeker but when you bend over to reach the faucet, standing water gets on your jacket hem. It’s gross.

I'm the only one who sports Causse Gantier lambskin gloves to exit through the filthy bathroom door?

There can be a tiny amount of spray back from your piss hitting the porcelain, so always wash your hands.

Clean dicks?

Sure, Jan.

I say you don’t know how to stay dry on a rainy day and/or your trolling/click baiting.

“You’re”

Yes. Always. I'm constantly amazed (and alarmed) at seeing people in my gym locker room not wash their hands after using the toilet. So disgusting.

I bet many of these shocked hand-washers also don’t wipe their dick before they put it away. Pissy drawers and clean hands.

Before and after.

No one wants to shake your hand right after you've just touched your dick.

[italic]No one.[/italic]

True, but I used to suck dirty dick all the time so context is everything.

I am with the microbiologist. People go in take giant shits and wipe with toilet paper that is thinner than a see-through blouse. Now they take their feces-covered mits and turn on the tap to wash (if you are lucky they wash). Over and over all day long poo hands touch that tap. The only time I use the washing area is if it is touchless. The worst is the airport. God the amount of piss on the floor there is enough to make me puke,

Lately I’ve been thinking about how dirty belt buckles must be, since they’re the first thing you touch after you take a shit. And I’m constantly adjusting mine because it’s always loosening itself…

I wouldn't say no one r27.

Right, R13. I keep a wide array in my smart manpurse, ever mindful of their various detrimental effects on gut biomes and intestinal microfauna, the horrors of unintended ingestion of antibacterial compounds, and likewise the potential butterfly effect of harm by artificial sweeteners.

i wash my hands if anyone else is in the room and would see me leave without washing. Otherwise it is hit or miss. I'm not sure what the huge risk is after peeing......

R15 often I pull a paper towel when drying my hands and use it to "grip" the door handle/knob to leave the room, and either throw it in the wastebasket in the bathroom or in a trashcan outside. Often it's an interesting game of shooting he wadded up towel like a basketball into a trashcan.

Hot air hand dryers are useless, worse than helpful. Research about the air blowing pushing microbes and bacteria up into a cloud of disease in the room. Also the electricity used worse for the environment than a simple paper towel.

This hot guy at the urinal... filthy and sexy - it's Twitter, so I know some people can't view it.

R35 I can't see it but is that the one with the huge cock that wipes the dickhead inside of his shorts when he's done?

[quote]I feel that if I am just touching my clean dick to pee, I don't want to touch or use any of the very filthy things provided to "clean" my hands. The water is usually cold, the soap dispenser never full.

OP: you are way overstating excuses for not washing. First of all, your dick may not be clean. Your dick and balls sweat even in the best of times. and your clothes may have have gotten soiled just in the course of wearing them. You are touching a multitude of things in the course of your day before you even entered the restroom--even if you're not aware.

Even lightly rinsing with water and drying your hands is cleaner than not washing at all. And if soap is available that's even better--but you don't have to scrub up as if you'll be preforming open-hear surgery. A light, quick wash is all that's needed.

Stop making excuses.

Only if a hand job was involved.

Do you glance over at the next urinal, or do you keep your eyes on your own paper?

Hilarious that the DL, the place where the nelliest prisses LEAP out of bed and run for the shower the second their trick is done shooting his load lest they have cum on them for one whole second, is a place where some silly bitches don't want to wash their hands.

I am a connoisseur of automatic hand-dryers. I’ll wash my hands just for the subsequent pleasure of blasting them with hot, noisy air.

One of things I do not miss from working in an office is seeing my coworkers do their business and walk out without washing up.

I was my hands after always, even at home.

I can smell your nappy pussy.

r37 Bless your heart

When I was 3 yrs old in the 60s, my mommy told me to wash my hands. Nothing has changed since then, so I mist still do it, even though when I think about it, it's the stupidest thing!

Yes, wash your hands, but even more importantly...

Tear down those urinal dividers!! They are responsible for the decline and fall of Western Civilization.

R37 I don’t want to R37 and I’m not gonna. I don’t “soil” my clothes. That little cold, trickily water fingertip rinse most men do only gets your hands more dirty by everting you have to touch to do it.

The only reason men wash their hands is because we were raised by moms who actually have to wipe their vaginas when they piss - and therefore should wash their hands. And no man has ever questioned it since.

R48. You are like a child who needs to be scolded to wash his hands. You are defending the indefensible. You are an immature little punk.

I love soap and water.

Listen I get washing your hands regularly throughout the day. I get using the excuse of peeling as an opportunity to wash your hands. What I am resisting is the idea that my cock is filthy and I need to wash my hands because I touched it r49. And the state of most men’s bathrooms and considering how many strangers who aren’t clean touch everything in there - my cock is the cleanest thing I could touch in a public bathroom.

[quote] I love soap and water.

Good luck finding a reliable source in a public restroom.

It pisses me off when I actually decide to wash my hands in a public restroom and I have to man handle everything JUST to do it and you get a little trickle of cold water and a tiny squirt of watered down liquid soap you can’t even lather. My hands feel more dirty from having tried to clean them.

^all the time thinking that people who have taken massive dumps with shit on their hands had to do the exact same thing I’m doing now…

Bring back the corporate piss trough.

R54 The great equalizer!

I don’t have time to wash my hands. I barely have time to use the urinal. Most of the time I just miss and pee all over the floor. I’m a very busy important individual.

R47 Yes! Return to trough urinals!

Is this thread an appropriate place to declare my love of foaming hand soap?

I wash my hands every time I enter my home. I think that’s how I avoid a lot of Gastrointestinal bugs and colds.

Slightly off topic, but rental car steering wheels can be pretty gross.

Also (maybe being too precious here), shoelaces that have been untied and dragged likely pick up some germs.

I don't flush, I don't shit, I don't touch faces infested handles.

Well, SMELL R61!

Tear down those urinal dividers, Mr, Gorbachev!!

My problem is when there is only a hand dryer, therefore no towels, and to exit you have to pull the door to open. This is why I always keep a couple of tissues in my pocket, not just to blow my nose if necessary, but to avoid touching a bathroom handle or doorknob.

r61 "I don't touch faces infested handles. "

Faces infested

I totally agree about the shoelaces, R60. Most of my footwear is loafers/laceless. I never saw the point of them and laces are filthy.

I wash my hands every chance I get, people make surfaces filthy. Everything is literally covered with shit, especially buses and trains. I'm so grossed out by all the homeless on the public transportation, if I sat down, I take the pants off immediately when I get home and they go in the laundry.

Whenever I come home from anywhere, I leave my shoes at the door and always was my hands. I can still hear my mother yelling to me as a kid every time I came home...wash your hands!!! I do it without thinking.

How many of you rim strangers?

As a woman, I don't always wash my hands, but I always touch a penis after I pee. Mainly for good luck.

The first thing I always to when I get home is wash my hands.The same with going to the office at work, I wash my hands before I touch my keyboard.

[quote]Most bathrooms have automatic flushers these days. This isn't the Port Authority 1987.

Like how they have sensor operated taps, soap and hand dryers.

Even still r70 most of those hand sensors you have to keep going in and out to activate it, the soap hardly comes out, so you are barely washing anything at all. Then you go to the hand dryer which basically atomizes the left over filth all around you up into your face.

R68 = Elizabeth Taylor cupping balls.

You need to wash your hands after you piss, especially if you use both to hold it.

To everyone claiming their duck is so clean that they do not need to wash their hands: How pristine are your underpants and pants after wearing? Would ypu use the front crotch section to dry your dishes on?

r74 Yes

r73 "especially if you use both to hold it. "

(A) Why would that matter, and (b) who uses both?

[quote]Most bathrooms have automatic flushers these days. This isn't the Port Authority 1987. [...And] they have sensor operated taps, soap and hand dryers.

Pray, tell us more about these now universal touchless technologies!

I'm not afraid of catching anything from my dick. Nor from shaking hands with someone who, earlier in the day, touched his dick and didn´t have a Full Silkwood scour and cleanse because the sink in the toilet was filthy. I don't suppose some of your prisses have ever pissed out-of-doors but I can assure you most men don't promptly retrieve from their man-purse a bottle of industrial strength disenfectant and cleanse their hands of dick before returning to the party of whatever they are doing.

I make it my practice to wash my hands often every day -- when feasible. But you´re fucking nuts if you think touching the taps and soap dispenser and door and hand dryer or paper towels in a public toilet doesn't make your hands dirtier than they were right after you touched your dick. Yes, even you in public toilets that fairly sparkle in comparison to this example.

I´d rather touch a hand that touched a dick than a hand that touched a dick and then touched any surface in the shithole shown below.

r77 Amen!

Using both hands hold your penis = mircopenis.

I think the most beneficial thing to come out of this thread is the necessity to see a doctor for those whose cocks and underwear are so filthy by end of the day that they need to burn their hands off every time they touch their penis. That is not normal.

I can 100% guarantee that there is nothing on my dick that would make anyone sick if they came in contact with it.

What’s the male counterpart for Cheryl?

I wonder if all those who so concerned with germs and wash their hands religiously... do you take your shoes off at the front door of your home.

Because, you know.............

You've usually touched the door to get into the bathroom...that alone makes it a good idea to wash your hands.

Only after I wipe my mouth.
