i just assumed everyone is just grossed out by it regardless of whether they fucking cleaned it in bleach, there’s simply no way to make a shared sponge feel acceptable
You feel this way because you know about germs… Back in the 1800s, surgeons would do brain surgeries with bare hands, wiping them in their pants and calling it a day
Except they didn’t call it a day, they went and delivered babies, with surgery goo on their hands, and flipped the fuck out when some guy did experiments showing that fewer women died in child birth when the doctor washed his fucking hands first. Hard pass on the hand washing, pal.
The mistake is attributing modern social norms onto people from thousands of years ago.
We are all products of the conventions of our times.
less than 100 years ago, certain people were grossed out by sharing a diner counter with an African American. 300 years before that, some people thought that bathing was the cause of disease since it unclogged your pores and made you susceptible.
Just because you (and I…let’s be clear) think it’s gross today, doesn’t mean we would have back then.

This so much. I would use virtually anything else before I would willingly go near a public asshole cleaner.
