my towel or yours?

do you ever share a family towel for drying after a bath. or do your family all have a seperate one with a different pattern?

We use the same towels, meaning we do not have separate towels for each person, but we wash them after every use. This works for us!

We all have separate ones . I dont think its good to share one towel with everyone.

We have our own towels. Although sometimes I share with my kids only. I don't want to use a towel that's wet when it's my turn.

You should never share bath towels if at all possible. That is the best way to spread germs amongst family members. It is how foot fungus can spread too. Always try to have separate towels for everyone. Shalom~Adoniah

we are only three person at home. me, my wife and my son. we all have separate towels. first my wife does not like to use yucky towels. she said that when towels are wet its yucky. she is the one who change our towels. she loves buying towels and there are a lot of towels already here at home. she also gets angry to me when i use a towel over and over again. 2 days is max for her. she also hates it when i dont hang the towels after i use. har har har.

Hi, gnomeland. We usually will use different towels that have a different kind of pattern on it. There were certain instances where we may have shared the same towel before. But not often does this happen now in our household. Everyone has their own personal towels that they may use.

Oh no! I do not share bath towels! That's disgusting to me! I don't even like to use my own towel for a second time! I like a fresh towel everytime I bathe. But I don't because I don't like to spend too much on laundry!

We all have our own towels that are matching. However, most of the time we end up sharing. We are clean when we get out of the shower or bath so I don't really see a big deal about sharing a towel! :)

before we use to do that. me and my husband share towels. But then he was always complaining about using the towel that is already wet. you get this kind of scenario when I take a bath ahead of him. Thinking about this one, it seems that what's the use of the towel if its already wet. no issues of hygiene here, we are not disgusted with our own skin or something. but as of now, we enjoy using our own towel because it can easily dry up if only one person is using it. ^.^

We all have seperate towels, but we use 3 to ourselves in a 7 day period. This keeps from having to wash towels that are not even dirty. If you are just drying something off and you hang up your towel, then you are fine. No harm!

Sometimes I go to my mother's house and there we don't use seperate towels for drying. I don't think it's necessary. But for someone other than my mother in my family I prefer using seperate towels.
