I love the false science bullshit study that started this thread. They say that they have an investigator basically watching and waiting in the restroom to see if people wash their hands??!??! WTF. It is quite predictable that women or men are more likely to wash their hands when someone else is in the restroom at the same time. Peer-pressure? Social constraints? It is just a plain fact! My guess would be that the "study" (and I use that term loosely) vastly overestimates the number of women and men who wash after eliminating.
As another poster mentions above, many people wash up in a public restroom while they don't wash every time at home.
To paraphrase George Carlin: The only time I wash my hands in the bathroom is when I actually shit on them.
