Have you ever thought WHY you should clean your hands after using the bathroom? You probably think because it's hygenic. But in what way? Urine is a very sterile substance, so it's definitely not for that. #2? Well I don't know about you, but I wipe with toilet paper, not my hands.
So now you're thinking "What about filth that gets away and happens to make it to your hand instead of the toilet?" Fair enough. But think on this: Who's filth would you rather have no your hand? Yours or somebody elses? You must realize that unless the faucet in the public restroom has a motion sensor (in which case disregard my arguments entirely) everytime it's turned on it's being touched by a stranger who just had their fingers either on their privates or on a piece of toilet paper very close to them. I think I'll take my odds with my own waste, thanks. You can keep yours on the tap.
