Comment on People that have face/butt labeled towels must do a terrible job washing their butts

  People switch towels after every shower?

  I’ve heard of people taking multiple showers a day, but not switching towels after each shower.

    I don’t care that it’s completely freshly clean; a butt is still a butt and has butt germs and I would rather not think about it. I’m gonna do laundry anyway, it’s easier that way.

      You’re gonna do a lot more laundry if you wash that many towels.

        Eh, I have enough to do towels two-three times a month. I’m okay with that tradeoff.

    If you’re a hairy man living in a humid climate, this can be necessary. We’re entering the rainy season now and I’ve been cycling two towels for a few weeks already. One might be used only for sponging sweat, with no need for a shower

    I was proud of myself just for finally washing them weekly regularly

    I do have several towels in the rotation each week, though, as my bathroom doesn’t vent moisture super quickly so they can be slow to dry, and sometimes I do shower more than once a day (mostly just in the summer — morning, after doing dirty/sweaty work like woodworking or yardwork, after sports, etc). I run hot and I sweat easily.

    But, like, shower and drip dry… there’s not much left to towel off tbh

      I wash my towels weekly too. Imo that’s the norm for things like towels and bedsheets, depending on use.

  Nah, it forgot by the time it is dry.

  …Do people not wash towels after each shower?

    You wash a towel after each use? Do you also wash your pants daily? What a waste of resources.

      You don’t have to? What a life of leisure.

      I mostly let my hands air dry when I wash them, just shake 'em out real good and it only takes a few seconds.

    Not where I live. I am clean, the towel is clean, and it has a lot of open space to air dry between showers. Wash every 3 or 4 showers just in case the house is more humid than I think to avoid the possibility of mildew if the towel gets bunched up.

    When I travel sometimes it is every time if the location is really humid since air drying there doesn’t work very well and they frequently have hooks that don’t let the towel spread out.

    No… that would be insane. Do you wash hand towels after washing your hands each time? Both things are incredibly wasteful and completely unnecessary.
