if you had asked this question 8 years ago before i got married, the answer would have been totally different,,,,, but since i am married to a nurse,,, yep i wash my hands before and after every time i eat or use the bathroom,,, it is either wash my hands or listen to her speech on how germs are everywhere,,, so i take the easy way out and wash my hands,,, the thing is now it is so routine that i wash my hands easily 20+ times a day or so......

Maybe a little, I admit it. But I honestly can't even remember the last time I was sick. It's literally been years since I even had a cold.
slomo, I flush with my foot too, every time. Glad we're on the same page, germ-wise.
Ever seen the Seinfeld episode where David Putty is a recovering germophobe and wears the germ emblem on a necklace? For some reason your post made me think of that.

Is there any other way? I think Sim and I are long lost brothers or something because he sounds like he's almost as big of a germophobic/cleanliness OCD as me.

Well, if it's a urinal, I can't kick that high so those are no-flushes.

True. If the handle is up top I rarely flush at a urinal.
However there is an ingenius invention at my office urinals - a foot pedal flusher. What a marvelous idea.
I just piss on my hands, two birds with one stone.
But seriously, I wash afterwards about 90% of the time. Only when I'm in a rush do I not. I pick up the toilet seat in public bathrooms with my foot, but, depending on the grodiness of the bathroom, I usually flush with my hand.
What I don't get are the pre-flushers. You know, the guys who walk up to a urinal and flush if someone else's piss is in there and then touch their junk.

Well that's true. I just wash my hands twice if I have to do that. Man I've got serious issues.
