When you take a shower, do you use a washcloth or just the soap in your hands? I'm a girl and I use a washcloth, but my boyfriend just uses the bar of soap without one, even to wash his butt. I told him this is gross and he should use a washcloth. Is this common for guys to not use washcloths?
ive heard others make fun of white ppl cause they apparently don't use washcloths....
I mostly use a washcloth to scrub the family jewels at a sink if I'm heading off for a group run and don't have time for a shower after laying the wood to a sweet, young maiden.
I use a washcloth. Just using soap doesn't get the dead skin off. The washcloth does a better job with this.
I do now, but in college, when I used to take showers with the team, we had soap dispensers in the shower and I'd just use that. I still used a rag on Sundays and over the summer though.
A washcloth seems ghetto. I use one of those ball things.

How many washclothes covered in crap would you like in your hamper?

This is only a problem for those who don't know how to wipe using TP. A pooey washcloth is the least of your hygiene worries.

Eeeeeuuuuuugggghhhh a washcloth??????? Do you kow how unhygienic that is??????
The hairless gender needs a washcloth to get a lather up, men (but not the body-shaving freaks) can get by w/ out a cloth.
I do however use a loofa-mesh type cloth maybe one or twice a week.

a fresh washcloth is clean.
yeah, but it's not "fresh" the next time you use it. i get soap in my hand and use that to clean myself, then clean my hands again at the end of the shower. i can't imagine using the same rag to clean my face and dong day after day, leaving it wet in the shower collecting mold and what not. and i don't put my soap bar up my butt either, there are no pubes on my soap, just to set the record straight.
I use liquid soap and that's it. 90% of people probably do the same. I occasionally use a pumice stone. How does not using a washcloth make showering gross? You just wash your hands at the end. Using a washcloth sounds nasty and not normal. A luffa is normal.
GREAT EXAMPLE OF CULTURAL INFLUENCES/DIFFERENCES ON A GROUP OF PEOPLE. Will anyone ever apply this type of knowledge to the rest of their life?

Luckily, the invention of the washing machine and dryer along with today's cheap textiles should make it pretty easy to use a fresh washcloth each time if you so desire.
of course. you can't clean the nutsac properly with your hands. i also use an old toothbrush if it's particularly grimy....a soft one.
Soap on a rope - just in case

Do you have any understanding of the carbon impact this has on our beautiful world?
I use a new washcloth each time. I wash my butt last, also, and rinse out the washcloth and dry it before it goes in the laundry. People on here saying to use a loofah- those things are unhygienic because you reuse it without washing it.
the only time i would use a wash cloth is if i am really dirty for some reason (mud run, working on car, glitter from strippers, etc). i don't believe it is necessary to use one on a daily basis.
