Wiping cock on hand towel...

Title says it all really. DS is fascinated by watching DH pee so he follows him off to the bathroom and the door was left open. I walked by to see DH drying his penis on the hand towel. Apparently it's what he always does, news to me though.

This is rank, right? Or is it a universal thing?

Am I the only one not to be grossed out by this? My OH does this and it doesn't bother me in the slightest. He'll wash himself over the sink then dry. Tis clean, so what's the problem? He told me ages ago that it's probably best not to dry my face on the towel, and I don't. Easy.

And I love the fact that I know he's always clean if I want to go down on him!

My PIL have a neatly arranged mountain of clean small cotton cloths (20cmx20cm or so) that go to a small laundry basket under the sink after use (in the manner of the posh restaurants)... I think I will pinch this idea after reading this thread. Looks good too.

I have been conducting a small scale private survey for my own interest when out and about regarding hand washing after using public loos. This came about after using a loo at Dover ferry terminal this summer where out of a very long queue of women and children, almost all of them left the facility without washing their hands - that's right without washing! I was very Shock and I'm sorry to have to tell you that now its caught my eye I notice that is pretty much the norm.
On the point of the cock towel though I'm just glad we have a separate loo and bathroom so the only thing DH and DSs can wipe on is loo paper - phew!

bemybebe · 14/09/2011 14:13

I don't believe you carabos! Wink Unless the toilets were so filthy that people have no desire to touch anything unless absolutely necessary.

I carry a small bottle of desinfectant/sanitising solution in my purse when travel abroad. Could it be that they have the same?

BellaneyMimphus · 14/09/2011 14:16

Was the ferry about to leave? Grin

bemybebe · 14/09/2011 14:17

Never travel via Dover, but my personal experience of the toilets in Eurostar trains are that they are properly filthy. I do not wash hands there, yuk, I pull my little bottle of disinfectant if I absolutely must go there.

Graciescotland · 14/09/2011 14:20

Nice to know I'm not the only one unresonableme and yes there are benefits to DH being so clean :)

The Thalys (European Eurostar after Paris) has the nicest/cleanest toilets of any train I've been on and they have a proper separate baby change.

Sorry, I mean Eurotunnel (where you travel in your car)...
Apologies!

Wept with laughter reading this. Sometimes there are things about the people you live with, you should just never know! Imagine if that door hadn't been open at that very moment, Gracie would never have known about her DH's cock wiping habits. However, it has given me the best laugh ever - so thank you Gracie for asking. I'm sure I saw a secret camera programme of hotel chambermaids wiping down the handbasins, taps, tooth mugs with the same cloth they wiped the bog with - now there's a yukky thought.

Snorbs · 14/09/2011 15:00

I genuinely don't see the problem of drying a (washed) cock on a hand-towel. Shaking can only get you so far. What else are you supposed to dry it on? The dog?

TastyMuffins · 14/09/2011 15:19

Think I work with Knittedbreast ( glancing round office). Had not thought about the blokes using the sinks in the cubicles for cock washing.

Loving the mental image of a cock in an airblade.

TooImmature2BDumbledore · 14/09/2011 15:23

God, it is hard to read this with a straight face! I knew I shouldn't have clicked on it at work.

Have emailed DH to clarify - he does not do this, he shakes, and FWIW, toilet roll leaves little shreds in uncomfortable places, and it is better for the male member to be slightly moist, as dryness leads to flaking!

carabos · 14/09/2011 15:42

bemybebe the toilets weren't filthy but the passengers were IMO! One woman actually went into the cubicle with her two DDs (aged about 9 & 11ish) so all three squashed in there using the loo, then walked straight out without washing Confused. It was a very long queue so I had plenty of time to spy on and judge people-watch while waiting. The worst part was how many small grubby children went in and out without bothering the washing facilities. They may well have small bottles of disinfectant about their person ( I do too), but that would make them in the majority and that I don't believe.

Whatmeworry · 14/09/2011 15:43

Sorry, I just don't get why its a problem with drying on hand towel if its washed in the sink first.

Whatmeworry · 14/09/2011 15:44

sink/washbasin/commode/etc.

Chocolategirl3 · 14/09/2011 16:19

Ladies you have given me the best laugh all day, thank god all the bosses have gone home or i would have some explaining to do re my laughter x

Andrewofgg · 14/09/2011 16:27

You mean that little towel is for hands too?

Put down the flame-throwers, folks, I am taking the piss again . . .

SnakeOnCrack · 14/09/2011 16:40

Well it's better if he soaps up, gives it a good wash (under the foreskin too etc) and then rinses, but if he's just giving it a quick rinse under the tap and THEN drying it on the hand towel - NO, just NO.

SnakeOnCrack · 14/09/2011 16:40

so op- does he lather up his cock? is what I'm asking..

diddl · 14/09/2011 16:47

Unless washing properly, would a quick rinse under the tap achieve much/any more than wiping with a piece of toilet paper?

KeepInMind · 14/09/2011 16:52

Makes note never to wash my hands in your house Grin

Butkin · 14/09/2011 17:02

Washing in sink is surely more acceptable than shaking it around! Drying on his own bath towel would preferrable to hand towel though. Toilet paper sticks!

You need one of these...probably best not to click with dc around Grin

Maybe a couple Dragon's Den ideas could have been inspired from this thread:

'The sani-rinal': A urinal with the facility to wash cocks via a little cock shower then blows them dry afterwards, rendering bouffant pubes

or

The fanny teapot, in a range of finishes including leopard print and diamante
