In reading many posts in here and in a few of the other forums I am just amazed that some of you havent realized the potential youre hands have for carrying things.

When you have sex you touch, if youre partner is infected with say warts, herpes, and other things alot of these will stay alive on youre hand long enough for you to put a condom on or take one off, to sratch youre bum, ect ect ect.

This is why in the health professions they where gloves and wash their hands. you go in and wipe ect youre infected hand touches and BOOM!!! now you have it.

Not all things are like this, Ive forgotten the list of them in the past few years not working but it was long.

This is why mamma said "Wash youre hands" :)
Just a tip hope it clears up some questions for a few people.

I agree, I even read somewhere on the net, that someone had done a study on HPV transmission. They found that many people (especially men) who have genital warts also had the virus on their hands. So if you shake hands with them, or touch the bathroom doorknob that they just touched, you can get the virus on your hands. Then if you go the bathroom, and touch yourself down there you can get infected. They concluded that non-sexual transmission of this virus was indeed a possibility.

I also read somewhere that it is possible for Syphillis to be transmitted non-sexually if someone has a sore on their hand, or genitals, and someone else is exposed to the stuff that is coming out of it. YUCK!

If hepatitus B virus can be transmitted that way, it makes sense that the wart virus can be transmitted that way too. Apparrently someone must be concered about the spread of diseases that way because they have come out with these new auto-flush toilets, urinals, automatic sinks, and even automatic paper towel dispensers for restrooms so that you don't have to touch the handle and get someone else's germs on your hands.

You still have to touch the door handle to leave the restroom, so if the guy (or girl) ahead of you did not wash their hands, it kind of defeats the purpose. I can't believe how many guys I see in public restrooms, who go the the bathroom, and then leave without washing their hands.

KINDA NASTY!
