If you just took a shower and your balls are still "dirty" your problem isn't the order in which you dry yourself.

If you can take a shower like a functional adult, it turns out skin is skin and wiping water off your ballsack is fundamentally identical to wiping water off the back of your hand.

Who cares? I just washed them, they're clean. Do women have a second pussy towel or something?

But also yeah, start at top, he's right.

Why is this gendered? I use the same towel on my cooch as my face after I shower, I would be pretty impressed by the dedication to doing laundry of someone who has a specialized crotch-drying towel.

The poster doesn’t have balls so they were curious

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 73 points 3 days ago

If you care about this, you're not showering properly. You're supposed to be clean mfer

[–] lime@feddit.nu 139 points 3 days ago (5 children)

do people just... not clean themselves in the shower?

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 30 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Towels don't only dry, they exfoliate. Even if you loofa scrub in the shower you're still leaving skin on your towel.

[–] moody@lemmings.world 85 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Bit it's skin that has just been washed. It's not like you're rubbing day old ball sweat on your face.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 32 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Unless you're into that, of course 🤷

My partner used to have a roommate that thought that because he only used the towel when he was "clean" after showering, that meant he never had to wash the towel. What started out as a white towel turned into a yellowing black stained horror. I can't imagine the smell. 🤢

If I'm unwilling to touch my face with the ball towel, my balls weren't clean enough.

[–] damdy@lemm.ee 90 points 3 days ago (2 children)

If you're cleaning yourself properly, who cares?

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago

I use a separate towel for my face because my face skin is a diva and will break out for no reason

The secret is to use the towel to dry one's nether regions after washing them, not before.

By the way, it applies to women as much as to men.

[–] Daelsky@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 days ago (5 children)

You also just start from the head and go down to finish with your feet. (I know how that sounds lol)

Like it’s basic drying stuff.. no?

There are way dirtier things being done in a bedroom or playing outside sports. Why does it matter if you are clean? Why is a woman asking that silly question like as if we don't kiss the mouth of someone who just gargle them balls

It doesnt matter, i washed. If i was dirty immediately after stepping out of a shower then i think i need to clean my house.

There isn't anything special about your balls that makes them dirtier than the rest of your body. You've just washed them. They're clean.

It's just more skin for fucks sake.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

and hopefully clean skin just out of the shower.

at least that's what I tell myself...

[–] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 days ago

To me is not hopefully, I do clean well enough when taking a shower. Is not that hard.

I don't really pay attention to whether my valet uses one towel or several. I think he switched things up between face and body, for sure, but beyond that shrug.

[–] satans_methpipe@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The ass/taint/balls combo get a good patting down, then if I have time I'll stand over a box fan for the ultimate dry.

[–] potoo22@programming.dev 5 points 2 days ago

I just use a hair dryer. Wife made me get my own though.

[–] Anegro_Montoya@sh.itjust.works 21 points 3 days ago

No seperate towel. Clean your balls in the shower and even if you keep them sucked into your anus all day, which is bad for both organs so don't leave em in for long, you can clean the most gnarly of sacks. My point is clean them.

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

This meme is so old the towel has dementia.

[–] callyral@pawb.social 7 points 2 days ago

Same towel for my whole body, the outside part is clean right after showering.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 30 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

If you washed your balls clean enough, it doesn't matter. It's not like being a girl and having to deal with your period continuing while you wash and dry.

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I wash my balls at least as much as I watch my face, why would I have a problem with drying both with the same towel?

Count yourself lucky if a single guy has separate towels for handwashing and showering/bathing.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 49 points 3 days ago (1 children)

i'm single and i have two separate towels,,, but to be honest i only use the big one for everything, the small one is so guests don't dry their hands on the towel that dries my entire body

One towel is more than enough for bathing, hand washing, floor mopping, kitchen towel, car window washing, oil rag

Weird, everybody in the comments assuming that she's grossed out by men using the same towel on our faces we used on our dirty balls. But she asked about a separate ball towel, which seems to imply that it's the balls that require special treatment, but not ass, feet, or pits. Maybe she's grossed out by men using the same towel on our balls that we used on our dirty faces?

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why are you using towel on dirty anything? Do you towel before you wash?

Who the fuck actually cares? Are straight guys so homophobic they can't even touch a towel that has touched their own freshly cleaned junk?

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 37 points 3 days ago (4 children)

How the fuck did you get ANY of that from this post? It's about hygiene, not homophobia.

And everyone in the comments is talking about using the same towel. Who is this strawman you're insulting and why does it have 32 upvotes?

Nah, these guys ain't straight and/or cis. If touching their own balls makes them that uncomfy then they've got some stuff they're hiding and need to work through.

Edit: even so, tho, the OP doesn't look like they're a dude; which makes me wonder if she has a different towel for every part of her body. Like, damn bitch, granted I ain't straight or cis, but I use two towels, one for my hair, one for the rest of me. I may be a gal but I don't need more than that, and the hair one is mainly because my hair holds enough water that I kinda need a second towel.

I would be okay drying my face with someone else's balls towel, I think my balls towel aren't gonna be a deal breaker
