You shower fucking properly so that it doesn’t matter wtf
Correct
There are two camps on this one, both have valid points:
- different bacteria live on different parts of the body, makes sense to use different towels for different parts of the body that don’t come into contact much
- if when you leave the shower you feel that you can’t use one towel for the whole body you should go back to the shower
Counterpoint to 1: Your microbiome is massive. You are constantly emitting bacteria. It surrounds you in a cloud like Pig Pen from the Peanuts comics. The reason you have different bacteria on your face and balls is not because they can’t get from one place to the other; it is because they can’t survive/compete there.
If you’re still hung up about your own towel, have you ever considered the implications of oral sex? How is it too whatever to intermingle your own bacteria upon yourself, but it’s perfectly acceptable to subject your partner to an even more invasive bacterial exchange. And if even that extent of biome crossover was sufficiently meaningful, why doesn’t my face smell like pussy yet?

You aren’t eating enough pussy. Everyone should eat more pussy. Pussy is fucking delicious.
Um, there is no pussy eating on grindr.
Get yourself a nice trans boy.

Quite right. Mmm tasty gock 🤤
My cat would disagree lol. She is such a sweet fluff ball.
What about the bacteria in the towel?
If you are using certain sections of a towel specifically for certain body parts, you dont know what germ theory is.
Counterpoint to 2: I’m just paranoid
You never leave your shower?🥺
Umh…I usually take showers to get clean. So, when I´m done showering (read: when I have successfully finished the task of cleaning my whole body), I use a towel to dry my now clean body. Since my whole body is clean now, I do not distinct between single body parts, because, as previously mentioned, they are all equally clean now.
Hey everybody! This guy touches his butt!
Butt toucher! Butt toucher!
This. And I use more soap on my ass and balls than about anywhere else on my body JUST TO BE EXTRA CLEAN.
But now your chest is less clean and you will end up re-dirtying the EXTRA CLEAN areas.
I also wipe my asshole with that same towel. No particular order. I’m coming out of the shower clean so what does it matter.
I hope my balls are clean after I shower.
this, if anyone os worried about the hygiene of towels, that means they aren’t confident on their shower.
if you’re clean it doesn’t matter if your dry yer anus first.
Ok, but also no, because how many times are you going to use a “clean” towel to dry off? I usually use it twice then wash it.
I am under the assumption that if I am clean, then the drying towel will be clean, I wash it after a while, but if it gets dirty, its because I need to shower better.
I have always used the same towel for everything but I do realize now that I pick the towel off the rack and place it over my head the same way, making it so my head gets dried with the “top” of the towel legs with the bottom, and it gets put back on the rod the same direction. So it is possible the ball section of the towel never touches my face, that said… I wouldnt be worried about it anyways. I’m not exactly scared of balls, and they aren’t naturally acidic and even a vaginas acidity (~tomato) level, isn’t dangerous for our skin.
I eat my fiancée’s ass like she’s hiding crack up there so I genuinely do not care.
I assume you do, in fact, encounter crack at that point.
Yes, I suppose you’re right.
Indeed, hiding crack in the crack of her crack
I’m in the 'new towel every day" club.
More people would upvote this but theyre still doing laundry
Both are clean so what’s the problem?
You dry your balls first, then your ass. Then, you get in the shower. After the shower, you use the same towel again to re-apply your musk. Women love it.
Towel has two sides & two ends. Check mate.

The corners are used for cleaning ears

The remaining corners can be used for drying, yes
I keep my corners pristine as a sign of arrogance & superiority.
These threads are always such a fascinating voyage of discovery
Any time I think I’m mentally fucked up, and for sure I am, I see stuff that at least makes me feel better about myself.
Additional advantage: using separate towels makes each one less wet, therefore they dry faster. In terms of hygiene I bet mold is significantly worse than using only one towel.
Tag side = balls
Non tag side = faceIt’s not that hard lol
I always put the tag in the top left corner holding it up. Otherwise the same.
So, what is so holly with the female genitalia that they have to ask this question?
Their junk is a bigger hazard if anything. My penis ain’t leaking blood or mucus most of the time.
Ladies, do you have a special towel to dry your ass crack?
I guess it’s the whole internal vs. external thing
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
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.
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.
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.
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 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
