Hygiene recommendations
Hello everyone! I'm not sure if this post belongs in this forum category so I'll post it here.
I have some questions about hygiene in nudism and what recommendations should I follow to have a better hygiene in my daily nudist life.
I started to think about the situation of what you should do after pooping. How should you wipe your butt correctly? I feel that I'm failing in that, since possibly butt hair contains excrement residue and with that I sit on the furniture, although it's not a big problem because I always make sure to sit with a cover.
I also start to think if there are some things related to hygiene that I have to do and take in mind compared to non-nudist hygiene. I consider that nudist hygiene is somewhat different from non-nudist hygiene, since the clothes become a kind of "shield" to not have direct contact with human waste, such as sweat, excrement and urine. For these reasons, I am thinking on creating a different routine to get a better hygiene.
What hygiene recommendations for nudists should I know?
First thing, wash after pooping. Many people buy devices that fit over the toilet for that purpose. That's an indispensable. And towel dry. In a public bathroom, if there are paper hand towels, wet one before you go into the stall, use it there, then don't flush, but carry it back out to the trash can. I personally wash after peeing, as well.
In social nudist situations, it's expected that you'll have a towel or somesuch with you, to put down on any furniture before you sit down. In your own home, there's a lively controversy about that one. How vulnerable is your upholstery? How much does your body leak / is it leaking at this age, time of month, whatever. Did you wash your butt after pooping? These latter are questions you can ask yourself, but you can't ask your guests - thus the courtesy of a towel for everybody. There's also a contagion concern, with all sorts of dire fears; realistically, lice and scabies are about the only thing that's contagious on fabric.
