AIBU?

What you and partner do that others would find gross

Inspired by the peeing in the shower thread, where apparently it’s gross to share a towel (I disagree). Are there things you and your partner do that might be considered gross?

In my house we have multiple toothbrushes and my husband and I just use whichever one (ie we share toothbrushes).

However, we’d never wear outdoor shoes in the house, nor would outdoor clothes be allowed on or in our bed.

Sharing toothbrushes is so rank!

Share bath water

In some cultures (my husband’s included) the whole family shares bath water (they all shower before taking a bath though). I’ve shared the family bath water when visiting them.

Why though? Never washing your hands is just grim and you’re risking spreading so many germs and bacteria about. Genuinely - is it laziness or do you not think you need to?

I can't imagine sharing family bath water. So gross! 💀 wouldn't even want to share my husbands bath water 😂

Ugh. Almost all of these are gross. Can't believe never washing your hands and sharing any old toothbrush is practically a point of pride 🤮

Anyway it'll shortly become a competitive 'who can be the most disgusting' race to the bottom thread in 3, 2, 1 ..

I have never had a relationship in which showering crossed anyone’s mind as something that was required either before or after sex.
