so do you guys care what parts of the towel were used to dry off the groin/rear region? and then can be rubbed on your face again?

No. When I finish showering, I'm clean. You could eat off my ass when I'm done, but I'm not too hip to that idea. I'm particular about who sees my ass :^D

Usually a clean towel every time. My towels don't dry very well on their own. It will take several days for one to dry out. And thats only if you spread it out over a large area or run a fan near it.

Every three or four days.

How often do you change your pillowcase?

I shower pretty clean, including scrubbing inch of my body and get rid of that that dead skin. When I dry myself, my body is pretty clean.

Towel gets smelly and dirty from not being dried fast when it's damp. I spread them on 2 hangers, edge to edge, so they dry fast.

With this, I can use 1 towel a week.

I saw on one of those dr tv shows, every 2 days, i was like wtf, i think i usually do 3-4 days.

I also have a runtal heated towel rack, its 144-166 degrees during winter, makes the towel nice and toasty and dries it fast.

That should already be sparkling clean once you start using your towel.

I would rethink my showering technique if I had poo on my towel.

Oh, its clean. But you wouldn't dry off a wet dog and then use the towel again, would you? "Manmust".

Yeesh. Fresh towel daily? Every 2 days?

One towel a week here. I'd probably go longer, but the wife washes them every week. Dry off, hang towel over standard towel rack, it's dry by the next day.

Heck, there are days I'll take two showers, and dry off with a wet towel. There is still room for it to absorb water, and generally speaking, the towel is used to get the majority of the moisture whereas the rest dries out naturally.

Yes I care, I have a separate small towel for those areas.

Think they get changed once per week, that's the wifes business.

I think I went from ~2007 to ~2011 without changing the towel. I never thought about it but at some point I was like "Wait, do shower towels need to be changed? Maybe I ought to", and now I do it once every few months. I don't rub the towel up my ass crack so it should be fine.

by that logic you shouldn't kiss your SO on account of them having your dick in their mouth at one point.

You should just hire someone to blow on you. Could probably get a homeless guy to do it for some cheap red wine.

I just moved into a new apartment and my fiancee and I were out doing some recon work in the neighborhood to see what local amenities are available to us. Our local convenience store not only carries some excellent selections of microbrews, such as the Stone Imperial Russian Stout, they also have Night Train, Thunderbird AND Mad Dog 20/20. It's like the ultimate combination of craft beer enthusiast store and hobo junction.

Usually once a week but I don't really have a schedule. If I figure it's been about a week I change it. If I take a second shower I usually change it because it will be wet from using it in the morning and instead of starting to rotate towels around I just change it out completely.

Unless I know it's my last time using a towel I usually avoid rubbing the private region that thoroughly and let it air dry. Does not matter how many times or how well you clean those parts, they're still dirty.

I keep a total of five towels in rotation for the week. I shower at least twice a day so the towels get used more than once but I'll never use the same one consecutively. All towels get washed every Sunday night and the cycle repeats.

Cool, so you can go hang at the local store and look down on the people walking out with their fancy microbrews.
