I do every single time but my mom rarely does. I always thought everyone did but she makes me nervous. Plus it’s normalized for men not to wash their hands so there’s that too

Kids alone make up a big chunk of the population and I’m convinced hardly anyone under the age of 13 bothers to wash their hands. Don’t get me started on the grown mfs in public restrooms. If they not washing in public they fs don’t wash at home

This question needs separate polls for urinal and non-urinal bathroom visits

Assuming you mean to say you don’t touch anything when using the urinal, I think you should still be washing your hands. This kind of thinking is why men are known to not wash their hands

Didn’t mean me personally, meant it needs separate polls bc you’d see considerably different results

Just sharing info from the inside, not uncommon to see guys use the urinal and not wash their hands

I’m a woman and from my viewpoint at least it is not common at all for a woman to not wash her hands after using a public bathroom

If anything I feel like women would be even more likely after using a public bathroom vs a personal bathroom, like I don’t recall a single time I’ve seen a woman not wash her hands
