I’m sort of fascinated with the different levels of comfort people have with each other regarding bathroom things.

For instance, there was the Hair on Soap.

Recently, I wondered about sharing bath towels.

I asked a few people and the reaction is all over the map.

Some people don’t care at all.  Other people?  Other people are downright violent about this topic.

SingleMomMindy said, “No WAY!”  When I asked why, precisely, her response was to inform me that she “wouldn’t share underwear either.”  I asked if she thought it was fair to compare a towel to underwear.

“I do.”

My friend, Bev, said she’d rather share a toothbrush than a bath towel!

Bath towel doesn’t really bother me.  Whatever. At least they were clean when they used it, right?  Underwear?  Well, I assume by sharing underwear, you mean that you’d be putting it on clean – though it seems other issues at work with that one, aside from just sanitary ones.    But toothbrush!  That’s interesting to me.

So, I’m curious:

1. What do you think about sharing a bath towel with your better half?
2. Not right when they are done using it but after it has dried.and
3. Which would you rather share with your better half?  A toothbrush or a towel?
