Jesus Christ, it seems like you're all actually serious.
Washing your hands is normal.
Those who don't wash their hands are the ones that are out of touch, buddy.

I'm going to say that normal people wash their hands after they take a shit and most certainly would proudly boast about not doing so in public. I'm far from a germaphobe, in fact i'm not really that clean of a person. There is a world of difference between being a germaphobe and washing your hands after taking a dump.

Everybody should just calm down. Let those who want to wash their hands, let them. Those who wish to stroll free from such unnecessary details can as well.

Germaphobes is such a stupid term, everyone is afraid of germs. Would you lick your bathroom floor?
Ding ding ding. Compare the tones between the two camps. Pro-washers are intense.
Is this an education thing? I was constantly told by my parents, teachers, and doctors to wash my hands after using the bathroom. So I always did. Always.
It's simply a smart health habit. Recently doctors are recommending that people wash their hands a lot more frequently than they do.
Germaphobe? Intense? I admit it, you got me there - I'm both of those things when it comes to not walking around with bits of piss and shit on my hands.
God restrain me if I see any of you lot in the Ebola threads smugly sneering at the 'primitive' hygiene customs in West Africa.

Excellent stuff here, perfectly straddling the exact line between sheer absurdity and gnawing plausibility. Troll post or real deal? Five minutes later and I'm still stumped.

Didn't even think people would do this until a couple of years ago I saw a guys coming out of the stalls after taking a shit and go right for the exit door. I was flabbergasted. I can't not use a paper towel to open that handle now for every bathroom. I've seen it about 1 or 2 times since in the same building, I've just been too shocked to say anything that last few times, but the next time I'm going to call the motherfucker out for being a disgusting piece of shit.
We've had these threads before and the people that don't wash their hands are out of touch with reality and will question why they have to do it.

You know, I made a poop thread a while back but this shit is getting out of hand. Or onto your hand as it were.
No one is overthinking anything. You wash your fucking hands after taking a dump because you just wiped your asshole 'clean' with a few mm of tissue. Nevermind if you think that practice is in and of itself archaic and unsanitary, for the purposes of this argument it can't be helped, unless you wanna go ahead and invent the three seashell method yourself.
Not washing your hands after taking a shit is just poor hygiene. And it's gross. We're in the year of the lord 2014. No one should have to tell you this.

Not if they are chefs, waiters, kindergarten teachers, nurses, doctors, parents, or generally come in contact with other people.

People who do this should legally have to wear gloves while in the bathroom. This is disgusting behavior.

If people can't see poo on their hands or O157:H7 shredding their insides they don't give a fuck. On a microscopic level it's witchcraft to them.
Same situation as vaccines. It's too small. I don't understand science.
I didn't get sick last time I didn't wash my hands.
I didn't get sick last year without a flu shot.
Fuck it. YOLO.
I looked that up and wow, it's true. I also suspected they were unhygienic because it has thousands of people putting their hands in a tight space.

it's all about your immune system. good thing germaphobes are the first to die off for not having one.
Yes I don't use soap or shampoo.
Also, wash your ass if you are really paranoid. toilet paper is just spreading shit on your ass.

might as well wash your whole body as shit particles are everywhere when you walk in a toilet.

Because the only way to build up an immune system is exchanging feces with other people.

These is more then enough disease and germs in the world to where our immune systems are just fine without having to walk around with unwashed hands. No one is going to die because they wash their hands every time they shit.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
Oh my, I witnessed this for the first time earlier this year in my Cisco class, dude literally walked out of the stall, passed the taps and walked out without washing his hands.
Worst part was is that he's in my freaking Cisco class handling a mouse and keyboard. I felt like dragging his ass back in there and bird bathing him on the spot.

I kinda am. You're overcleaning yourself.
No such a thing as overcleaning yourself. People who don't wash their hands are disgusting human beings.

What about that one dude who didn't use shampoo for a year? It worked well for him.

Do you also eat shit?
It's part of standard practice to wash your hands.
Do you people also refuse to brush your teeth or wash your hair? Do you guys ever shower?
Human hair self cleans itself after a while. Your hands don't.
Wanna smell like a hobo?

Eh someone couple weeks back this one guy was burshing his teeth in the restroom while I was taking a piss. he then proceeded to do the same only to leave without washing his hands..I don't get it.
Probably because ideally they wash their fucking hands then go about their business without a second thought.
Hell, most of us don't give it mind UNTIL we see these kinds of infractions, then see threads like this and wonder what the fuck is wrong with people.
This is one of the stupidest areas to take such a stance. We want hands cleaned SPECIFICALLY to curb the spread of disease, especially when these people carry these mentalities into the food business. And overcleaning would be "washing down every time I touch another object" not "after I wiped away my poop."
As kids, my brother and I (4 and 6 respectively) played a lot of multiplayer games on N64 and GameCube. Things were all fine and dandy for a good while, we'd play without a thought. Then one day I had a sneeze. As I went to cover with my hands (use my shirt or inner-arm now), I was met with the vile smell of feces. Out of sheer curiosity, I smelled the controller he usually used and decided then that I was never using that one again, and that it was his assigned controller.
Overboard? Maybe. But shoot, that smell didn't come off even after washing. It took years for the smell on that controller to go away; years AFTER he started washing his hands. It was horrible.
Also, people who don't wash... Please don't shake hands. Or pick up products you plan on putting back. Or do anything involving others food.
Signed,
People who ain't taking your *

Aye.
It isn't even a matter of spreading disease or being a hygiene freak but general cleanliness. Do you people have no shame? God forbid if any of you work in the food industry.

I was wondering the same thing. I know my SO doesn't wash their hands either.
Missed this, it's actually something that kind of frustrates me with public restrooms. 90%+ of the time you have to open the door INWARD to leave rather than being able to just shoulder yourself out or whatever. I use paper towels for some peace of mind, but it's kind of crazy to leave such a gaping hole in the aim of keeping sanitary given not everyone washes their hands clearly. Even if they did there's probably cases where you NEED to bolt out and decide it's a step you can skip just this one time for whatever reason.
Probably by acknowledging that we can only try our best at being reasonably clean and that some acts are just going to get us nasty anyway and needing to clean off afterwards. It's not as if we are averted to ever going to the bathroom here, just set on cleaning up after our business.
