We've all been taught to wash our hands after using the bathroom, and many of us do so diligently. I mean, it's a rule, right? You go to the bathroom...and you wash your hands. There are sinks with soap and water conveniently placed next to the exits for our use. So we do use them, right?Well, most of us do...but according to a recent study, it was found that about 33% of men don't wash their hands after using a public restroom (compared to only 12% of women). That's more than twice as many men as women...and there are more interesting details here.
So, why aren't our husbands, boyfriends, sons and fathers using those sinks? Well, the study doesn't say, but if you do anything for the health and well-being of your male loved ones (and yourself!), tell them to wash up! The hand-washing police is watching!
