This is something that I started thinking yesterday while having a wee in the public loo. It touches up on something Iq mentioned in his Wash your Hands blog a few weeks ago.
What the hell put the idea in our heads that your junk is the dirtiest thing you touch all day and must immediately wash your hard right afterward?
On an average day you leave your house, you meet people, you shake their hands, you take public transport, you touch door handles/knobs, you find a penny, you go bowling, go to the gym, have a smoke, eat a hot dog, use your cell phone, drive somewhere, buy groceries, handle money, wave at someone, cough, sneeze, write an email, and so on and then you go to the bathroom, unzip and relieve yourself. WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU NOT WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST?!?!
Wash your hands afterward for good measure but if your junk falls off one day because you touched it after you handled some money that was once inside a hooker who specialized in having especially nasty farts on people, don't complain.
Don't be stupid. Wash your hands Before and After. I should do public service announcements.
