lol at all the germophobia in this thread

overcleanliness is why we're sick all the time

[diet_poison]

I don't think that's entirely true. I think good hygiene does a lot to prevent illness. The problem is when people start overusing antibacterial soap.

You are so wrong. Cleanliness saves thousands of lives every day. Giving birth, for example, has never been as safe as it is today.

"Between 1990 and 2015, maternal mortality worldwide dropped by about 44%.
(...)
The major complications that account for nearly 75% of all maternal deaths are:
severe bleeding (mostly bleeding after childbirth)
infections (usually after childbirth)
high blood pressure during pregnancy (pre-eclampsia and eclampsia)
complications from delivery
unsafe abortion.
(...)
Infection after childbirth can be eliminated if good hygiene is practiced and if early signs of infection are recognized and treated in a timely manner."

And if I ever run into all those pregnant boys and men, I'll be sure to pass along this information since I'm sure they'd appreciate it. In the meantime, this has nothing to do with general sickness.

[(Anonymous)]

Because no boys are ever born. I think they might grow on trees. Or sprout out of mud or something.

Well, no. At best, that's an extremely over simplified viewpoint. Modern sanitation (along with realizing what the hell germs are) has saved countless lives. It's why most developed countries no longer have to worry about cholera epidemics.

Even if you argue that extreme hygiene has weakened immune systems because they're no longer as rigorously tested as they used to be, remember that this also means that people with weaker immune systems don't get sick and die. And who's "we"? If you are "sick all the time", then it's far more likely that you have a medical issue, that your lifestyle isn't as healthy as it could be (getting enough rest? A well rounded diet?) or that your personal cleanliness could be improved.

P.S. Frequent hand washing is still your best defense in cold/flu season.

[(Anonymous)]

When I say "we" I am referring to the general population in developed countries.

Frequent hand washing is still your best defense in cold/flu season

ignoring that this is contradicting your previous point that other factors are at work

[(Anonymous)]

It is a pity that you put other people in danger with your festering self.
