Do you wash your hands after sex and masturbation?
 

Usually I go and get ready for bed after sex, so I'll wash. I won't run to clean myself immediately after though.

No. I must say it's never even ocurred to me. :oogle:

Yes, pretty much always after masturbating. After sex it just depends if I got anything...er... 'icky' on them. I can't stand having my hands sticky or greasy or anything like that.

Sometimes, after sex, if I've gotten something I don't like on them. But I masturbate through my panties, so my fingers stay clean :)

Usually not after sex...nothing on them that I won't lick off.

After masturbating, sure. I don't mind the jizz (not like I would lick it off, but enough that I could just wipe it off with a tissue), but I can't deal with the lube. Gotta wipe and wash.

Licking your fingers counts, right?

After maturbation, yes.

After sex, usually no.

I don't see why I'd have to after sex. After masturbation there's usually lube on my hands and I don't want that there, but sex normally doesn't require lube.

I guess if she had herpes I'd wash....

If we did it right.. we both need a shower.

Usually I wash my hands after both because I pee after both. It's a major habit to wash my hands after I pee.

You don't get wet thru the cloth?:surprised:
I sometimes do, sometimes not. Always liked the scent on my hands, so I'm not in a hurry to wash it off-only if I have to do something else afterwards, like cook.

I like to keep the smell of sex on my hands when I meet somebody. It helps to establish my dominance as the alpha male.

+1!

My little buddy gets wet through the panties; not my hands :D

Never after jerking off since there is no anal play.

Wanna shake?

post-masturbation: a good rinse
post-sex: wash, because I pee after sex and I wash after I pee

Always after masturbation if I'm by myself. If it's in the middle of sex or foreplay, etc, then I will wait until the session is over.

And yes, usually after sex I do as well.

hahaha well played.

Hardly ever, no. Unless I know I'm seeing other people who don't want to know that I was having sex moments before (parents, grandparents, etc). Unless it's my dad; then I'll tell him, then laugh at him wishing he were young and beautiful like me... then laughing more.

Someone's missing out! :p






You want to shake?!;)

If I've got nothing on me after masturbation I might not. Usually have a trip to the bathroom to dispose of the toilet roll, so I guess I usually do have a quick splash under the tap.

If I have jizz-hands I'd definitely wash my hands before preparing food or meeting friends etc.. I wouldn't want to eat/touch theirs.. it's common courtesy really :p

With sex.. don't think I have thought about it.
After a pretty "moist" session with my gf, later on I did notice my hands still smelt of her, which was nice, but I washed them anyway since it was making me lose my concentration ;)

I usually clean up. Just because the smell is very distracting! Sometimes I won't...but only if I'm going to sleep after and it's not worth the trouble. Any other activity after that and then I feel I should...just seems more hygienic.

Always. WTF, why wouldn't you? :shakehead:

We may be strange but my wife and I both enjoy the smells and sensations of after-sex. Ever since I was a teenager I have loved sniffing my fingers and smelling that beautiful smell that she makes. (Except one girlfriend who for some reason just smelled nasty to me.)

We take it a little further. She begs for me to leave a mess, and will sleep all night that way. She especially loves it rubbed on her nipples. We both love to wake up later and realize how sticky and wet we both are. It always leads to yet another session.

In particular, unlike my first wife, I enjoy that she does not immediately run to the bathroom to shower. I like waking up in the middle of the night and thinking about how she is still so slippery and messy.

Agreed.

Isn't it weird that if this thread were about washing hands after going to the bathroom most of the responses would be different. Think about what you touch when you go to the bathroom vs. what you touch during sex. Is there a big difference. In fact, a lot of men (and probably women too) can go to the bathroom without touching anything other than their clothes, would't you still expect them to wash their hands?

after sex, there is usually a wipe down with either my t-shirt (that came off during the midnight activity, or a handy towel. My wife doesn't like the feel of cold jizm on her body. If i don't pull out (she prefers that i do) then she either showers immediately as the semen seems to sting (has been for 26 yrs) or immediately in the morning.

I usually just wipe off. We both shower prior to going to bed, so as to wash off the dirt of the day. Since I usually run in the mornings, I have a second shower after that, and can therefore clean off any odours at that time.

Yeah, I guess I'm a little surprised at the responses, too. I see it as a body fluid/hygiene thing, just like going to the bathroom. I mean, I don't jump up immediately to take care of it, but I'm not a huge fan of my own smell (I've always been the type with a lot of discharge, no matter what time of the month or mood I was in, and I started hating that smell even back in high school), the smell/stickiness of lube, the smell of semen, or that sweaty-genital-smell--hmm, basically I don't like any of the smells of sex, lol--and it all gets on my hands if the sex has been good. :) So yes, I wash, out of personal preference as well as out of courtesy to anyone I might be meeting afterwards. The idea of meeting people and shaking hands with them when they might not have washed after that business... makes me a little queasy. :shakehead:

Most times I jerk off right before my morning shower so... No need to wash my hands.


Sex... I don't remember. It's been a while.

Yeah on both counts, but I guess I am a bit of a germ freak.

Depends where I'm going.

Lately this has been the case for me, but then I have a new tattoo that I'm healing so I'm showering more than normal. Either way, I'm all dirty sometimes and I need a good rinse.

Other times I'll fall asleep and not bother till I wake up.

And, as has also been popular lately, sometimes I'll have to go back to work. In which case I always wash.

Same rules apply to sex and masturbation. I don't mind smelling myself on my hands but I'd rather be smelling someone else anyways.

After masturbation, yes. After sex, not necessarily immediately after. I am generally more occupied with basking in the afterglow and sometimes the lingering scents make it all the more enticing to continue the saga so to speak...

sorta on topic: was down on a girl and got interrupted by some friends while i had a faceful of woman so had to wash hands and face quick-smart as kissing hello was in order. she went to shower while i greeted guests then i went to shower....

I am either at the computer or in the shower while masturbating (rarely in bed), and I always use lubricant, so I'll wash it away afterwards.

After sex, I don't bother washing unless we decide to hop into the shower together or it's a quickie and we need to meet people/go out afterwards. I love the smell of sex and want it to linger, but I doubt a sudden whiff would be appreciated by most others besides my partner and I.

Always after masturbation, because cold semen anywhere on me just isnt a good feeling.

And I always wash my hands after sex. It just seems like the right thing to do. Don't need to leave happy trails all over the house. However, depending on when and how messy the sex got, washing my junk is optional. It can usually wait until my next shower.

no after sex
masturb. if on bed, just catch with tissue, some times apply all over chest or thighs. If on chair through dress, go clean wipe it

Before, always before sex, sometimes before masturbating. Nicotine will give you Such an Itch!
If I have to wash afterwards, then I have to shower afterwards.

depends what i'm doing afterwards. if after a tug (so to speak) at night, i wouldn't wash my hands since i'd be sleeping after that. but during the day, I suppose I would. Can't handle food that's just been splashed with semen beforehand, can you? lol..

I don't get why one should wash his or her hands after sex though. Touching boobs, buttocks, legs, thighs, hair, etc. is hardly dirty.

Yes actually, I have a thing about my hands and clean them many times even over the course of a day.
Let alone after sex etc.

Living in a tropical climate with ceiling fans running 24/7 we never deal with any sticky-ickyness after 20 minutes or so since everything evaporates. All that is left is a natural moisturizer with a smooth feeling skin. My moustache will carry the scent during the next day bringing several hard-ons. Honey....:)

Uh, hell yes? I wash my hands after everything in that arena. Most likely give myself an once-over as well, or a shower, depending on how much everyone got into it. :)

I also wonder about the correlations between those that don't wash after and whether they wash their hands after going to the bathroom...

Well, the whole bathroom thing I just don't know about. Urine is an antiseptic, and I try and keep my groinal area clean enough to eat off of anyway, so what is the point in washing after a piss? After a crap is another thing entirely.
