This week, data on a study of American hand washing habits was released. It's probably no surprise that more people say they wash their hands after using a bathroom than are actually observed doing so. Have you ever been in a bathroom and had to bite your tongue as someone did their thing and then just dashed out of the loo? One time I watched this little girl in a restaurant hurry back into a restaurant without a glance at the sink. I groaned inside knowing she was probably going to go back to eating french fries with her hands.
I love it when ladies are all worried about fixing their lipstick before heading out the door and skip soaping up. I had a male friend that would never touch bathroom doorknobs or open containers of mints in restaurants. He was definitely on to something. Believe me, I'm no crazy germaphobe . I'm just suggesting some basic hygiene here. I'll let Terrance Howard dish out the crazy, women need to be using baby wipes on their bums, talk. I'm just trying to sell you on soap.

remember... It takes a minimum of 30 seconds of scrubin' to be effective against most bacteria. No matter the temp of the water. Soap & 30 seconds. Consider it ... a zen half min.
