Not washing hands after using toilet AIBU?

I’ve recently realised my husband isn’t washing his hands after using the toilet. I’ve spoken to him about this several times and he’s been very defensive and doesn’t see anything wrong with this and hasn’t changed his behaviour. AIBU to find this disgusting?

That is just disgusting.

I thought that despite all the truly negative things about Covid one lasting good thing would be that people were now aware of the necessity of washing hands to help prevent spread of disease.

How has this totally passed your DH by?

Disgusting. I'd honestly leave. He'd never be allowed to touch me again. How disrespectful.

It is disgusting. Does he wash his hands before going in the fridge or touching communal food? If not then I would seriously contemplate leaving as it's a sign of his utter contempt for the rest of the household.

Oh honestly people not washing their hands after going to the loo is absolutely bloody grim! Yanbu, I’d find it disgusting.
