For me, I'd say at least 5 times.

1) Morning
2) Afternoon
3) Night
4) Before and after meals
5) When I touch something dirty or come home after a day's out
6) After I walk my dog
7) Random other times.

I'd say 8-10 now.

You?

Only when they're sticky. As a result my immune system could kick your immune system's ass. =]

i'm in the 2 to 3 tops category...and starting to wonder if that's way too low.

On weekdays, I'd say I average around 15 times. On weekends, I average around 3 times.

I spend approx 5-8 hrs a day in a clean room. Thus handwashing does not happen all that often. Unless you count when I am washing my gloves. Then it may skyrocket. I deal with several chemicals that require me to be extra careful.

I wash before and after meals, if they get dirty, and when I use the restroom, especially at casinos.

If I am washing my hands, I am washing them with soap.

If you change it to soap and water or alcohol hand gel, then I'd say 20-30. To bring down the average, one day a week, it's more like 2-4 times because I'm doing very little besides sleeping and playing poker.

when i have a shower. that's about it. or if i noticeably get poo on my hands. sometimes when i do dishes i guess they are sort of getting washed by soap. never do i soap it up after a regular bathroom visit though.

After I go to the bathroom, and in the shower.

I also rub hand sanitizer on my hands about 5 times during the day. It keeps them clean and soft.

When I'm [censored] with my animals, 25++. The rest of the time, 6-9 times a day.

Does this imply that you don't wash after all shits?

And they will get that primarily American affliction of diverticulitus.

Eat more fiber. [censored], on average, at least 1.5 times a day. Look for the consistency of toothpaste, and save yourself from the scourge of weird colo-rectal protrusions.

Yeah I eat All-Bran every day.

You don't want a liquid consistency, but you don't want tough stools either.
