I had a 9th grade student who didn't believe that men washed their own asses because it was gay. Yes, he was retarded, but in that behavior classroom kind of way.
We, the students and I, could not convince him otherwise.
Hah, i worked for the military and had to supervise 60-70 guys from 20 to 40 years old. For some reasons bidets came up and the fact that i have one. They thought it was super weird. I said that i'd find it weird if you accidentally touched some poo, clean it off with a piece of paper and then call it a day until you take a shower.
The big takeaway was that no one washed their ass in the shower ever because that's gay. Man, i too wonder why no one gives them blowjobs.

Hmm... Two towels? One for body, one for head (hair and face).
Every towel I have ever used has a tag on it, that's the crotch end, dry your face with the other end.
If this isn’t enough to be clean, then I don’t know what is besides magma. Lol

Do you use one towel or a fresh towel everyday.
I have a fresh towel everyday. My current partner thinks I am absolutely insane for this. A 6 pack of basic decent bath towels is $35 shipped online. My partner came from a more affluent family than me and makes more money than me but I still think this is worth spending $35 on once every like 5-7 years until the towels wear out.
Their argument is that you come out of the shower clean but that’s not really true. You come out less dirty still with bacteria, skin mites, dead skin cells, fungi, etc that get transferred to that towel. It’s probably fine to reuse it for a few days assuming the towel dries in between uses (which it may not, given the humid environment of a bathroom, especially if shared), that you don’t have weird situations going on (athletes foot, bacterial acne, etc), and that you’re not sharing it. But why bother when again a weeks worth of towels is like $40 and slightly more laundry. Yuck
I think you have a humidity problem if your bathroom is humid all the time.
You're forgetting the cost of an extra laundry load for those towels each week.
Fresh towel already has bacteria and fungi on it before you dry yourself with it.
It’s probably fine to reuse it for a few days
My dude, hardly anyone uses a new towel every day. Its much more than "probably" fine. Its perfectly fine.
Is affluence the cause of germophobia because their parents convinced them frivolous luxury was actually important for staying healthy?
Don't get me wrong, enjoy your fresh towels! That's nice. That's a luxury. Luxuries are nice. But don't fool yourself into believing that you're any healthier for not using the same towels twice.
You need to air out your bathroom more or get a dehumidifier if yours is constantly humid. If your towels dont dry I wonder how you dont have mold growing on the walls.
Do you change your sheets every day? It's your own bacteria anyway. As long as you're not sharing the towel it's fine for multiple days. A fresh one is just wasting time and water on laundry.
And electricity
And my axe!
I use a towel twice. Once then hang to dry use again then done. I find if i try to hang to dry again it either doesn't quite dry by the next day or just has a kinda bleh texture i don't enjoy, not soft anymore. So 2 uses it is
Do you use a fresh dishcloth/kitchen sponge every time you wash up? re: mythbusters ep 135.
They didn't test towel unfortunately unless there was a follow up that i cant remember.
I cycle the kitchen towel every few days (sooner if there’s a spill). I replace the sponge twice a month because I haven’t found a sponge at any price that doesn’t completely fail apart and look gross after doing dishes for two weeks or so.
I’m raising a child, so it’s probably a little more intense for me.
I'm not like a sponge connoisseur, but I've been using "O-Cedar Scrunge" sponges for about a year and they're pretty rugged. I have two sponges in rotation, and every time I do a dishwasher load I alternate them through it. They've never really fallen apart on me, but I think the green scratchy side gets a little less scratchy over time, and I just replace both of them every 2-3 months for good measure. I'm assuming that there's a scientific paper somewhere that says using sponges for that long will kill me or something, but I'm still alive so far so fingers crossed.
The trick is to put on your bathrobe, do other things, and when you're dry, manually dry the parts that weren't covered by the bathrobe. Maybe in the meantime I can do something else, which is more efficient.
Luxury is drying your folds with a blow dryer in winter.
Winter? This is how I do it year round. My blow drier is not for my hair (it's long and takes forever to dry but I don't want to damage it with heat) it is for my balls, ass and feet.
Your folds?
The bits where skin touches skin. Like in the crotch or under the breasts.
Thats a 4chan question?
I use 4 towels. Hair, face, body, and genitals. And for those saying you should be clean, that's all fine for yourself, but would you let your mother kiss your face when you know you wiped it after your ass? Yeah, no thanks.
Who wets their face in the shower?
WTF? Who DOESNT?
I tend to wash my face separately from showering, and also avoid directly spraying water in my face because some lizard part of my nervous system thinks I'm waterboarding myself.
That said, there's generally enough random drippage and mist during a shower to require I dry my face.
