Cleanliness is next to Godliness

This may make more sense to guys, but I think everyone can appreciate it.

It is a known fact that a healthy person's urine is sterile. That means all the little germies that your body has ingested have been killed by your immune system and their corpses are jettisoned in your urine. It is perfectly "clean" and will not make you sick. It is even safe to drink for most people, though I would not advocate that outside of absolute survival. Hell, the Vikings and other advanced early civilizations used urine for a plethora of medicinal purposes, so why are we so afraid?

Regardless, urine is not dangerous... At least not your own to yourself.

So, it makes no sense to me that we are raised from the time we leave pampers to wash our hands AFTER we urinate. No one has ever cautioned us to wash before we handle our business. Seems that we run a greater risk of getting sick handling ourselves with grubby paws than we do of dribbling a little piss onto clean ones.

So next time you handle Nuclear Waste or are scrubbing your siding with bleach, be sure to wash after you touch yourself, we wouldn't want you to get sick!
