What an entertaning thread!
Firstly I have to agree with Ted that wet wipes are one of the vilest inventions of the modern era, and I hate that 'chemical' feeling that I equate with feeling dirty much more than, well, actual dirt.
I find it amusing that people think their OWN excrement is somehow going to give them typhoid etc; it was already inside you once so with a litttle bit of rational thought........
Having spent a substantial portion of my life working with animals on the farm I have simply lost any great worry about contact with excrement, blood etc etc. Not washing my hands fastidiously every 20 seconds when I come into contact with fecal matter hasn't killed me yet, nor will it.
There is a slightly scary and proven to be unhealthy obsession with cleanliness in todays society, largely due to heavy weight advertising campaigns funded by the same multinational companies that make all this crap (excuse the pun).
