    The butt is the dirtiest part of the body so I usually just remove yesterdays towel from my ass and then insert today’s towel right up there while shaking like a dog to air dry

    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.

    Comparative illustration of women drying themselves versus men. The woman uses separate towels for bum, hair, and face, whereas the man comically uses one for everything, starting with his bum to genitals, to face.

    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.

    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.

          That’s kinda of wasteful isn’t it? Washing a perfectly good towel after a single usage.

          If the body was cleaned correctly, you could just air dry and use it like 2 to 3 times.

          I use two towels per week, and they never smell bad before I put them for washing.

            i’m doing a load of whites once a week regardless, so no, its not wasteful.

            and you leave it hanging in the bathroom until next time you use it, ever done research on how much shit… both literal and metaphorical, gets launched into the air every time you flush?

            a closed lid reduces, but does not entirely prevent it, either.

              • No clothes remain hanging in the bathroom.
                • Towels have a separate hanging place in an airy place (at least I wish they did. I just make do with the gymnastics bars)
              • Toothbrushes are taken out after use and air dried (or momentum dried?) before returning them to their compartment, which is also outside the bathroom
              • The only things that remain in the bathroom are shampoos and soaps

              Ehhh all of my clean towels hang too because my bathroom is so small the sink is in the hallway, and I don’t have space for another dresser in my bedroom. Something something old house problems. I can worry about cleanliness of towels in the next house in 1-10 years

    To avoid using the same are for my butthole before my face, I always use the left side of the towel on my upper body and the right side on my lower body. I always keep the left side on the left so I can keep track.

    This is such an american question.

    It’s after a shower. At that point your balls should be as clean as your face, or you’re doing it wrong.

      You would be shocked how bad most people are at cleaning themselves. They think just being under running water is enough or only wash upper with soap and the “rest runs down and gets washed”

      Been washing my balls n ass since junior high and guys would look at me like I’m insane when i mentioned i shampoo downstairs, is how i came to find out most of them don’t even do basic soap let alone scrub down there

          Idk it works pretty great on my pubic hair, makes it much softer. I’m not over here using it on like my arms legs etc but my bush appreciates it

        Instead of showering I just roll around in garbage, it fortifies the skin against bees and keeps dangerous people away. It keeps all other kinds of people away too which is a nice bonus.

        Yeah, I use shampoo on my balls, ass, front, armpits and hair. Back is a pain so I don’t and I pretend the arms and legs don’t exist cuz I can’t be bothered.

          Shampoo is specialized detergent in solution, you can just use regular soap if you don’t care about damaging the hairs. Also, hot take, most shampoos aren’t worth it in the first place over bar soap if you have short hair.

          Now if you do want your pubes and ass hairs conditioned that’s another thing but you also need to be using conditioner for curly hair the structure of the follicles is different.

            It’s generally recommended not to clean your hair too often with shampoo anyways I think. Some people substitute the shampoo, with only conditioner sometimes.

            Interesting, didn’t know those details, I’ll try it out with just a bar of soap, but I did find that I enjoy e.g. the feeling of my hair when I use my current shampoo (Head & Shoulders) instead of some others, and I feel like it’d be significantly easier to spread with a liquid shampoo rather than a bar of soap.
