    Normal and it's not really dangerous for your health, just as aussiewolf said your ''Building'' an immune system according to what you are exposed, so it means that your body can fight back all the bacterias that you ''normaly'' get into your body.

    Of course you should try to wash your hand , especially if you went to the hospital or if you handled money but usually you are at low risk.

    It's today sociaty's fear of bacteria and psycho-clean tendancy that makes you think it's SUPER DANGEROUS . You could even wash yourself every 3 days and you would not get any health problem.

    ps; sorry for my english, it'S not my mother language

      I tottally agree. As long as you wash your hands after you've been to the toilet and don't have poop over your fingers whilst you eat you should be fine. People have become overly obbsessive with hygiene and it's annoying.

    I like to take a nice crap and get a little on my hands before I prepare my meals. It adds a nice flavor.

    I forgot about washing my hands before food. I only wash my hands before preparing food and after I go to the toilet. My immune system is terrible, so I am happy I eat dirty things if it means avoiding sickness. But I always think, I don't think cavemen washed their hands, and our species survived the dirty hands. These days we're so clean that even bird/swine flu can kill us lololololol.

    I have too. If I don't then I can't stop thinking about all the dirt and germs I'm cosuming. Yet I'm not a germapho

    i guess it depends on what you touch before you stick your fingers in your mouth. but either way you are probably building up your immune system so you wont get sick as often as other people.

    Normal but not necessarily healthy.
