Do you share bath towels with any family members?

like your Spouse, Kids, etc....

Inspired by a TV programme I watched last night on germs! Do you have your own towels?

Are you asking if we share or if we have our own? I'm not sure whether to choose yes or no!

I do not share.

Do we share after they have been washed or share as in re-use for the next bath/shower?

Do we share, as in I take a shower and lay my towel out to dry and when dh takes his shower grabs my now damp towel and uses it to try off with....that would be a NO!!!

Do we grab what ever towel we want out of the linen closet, then yes we do share. Towels aren't color coded - purple mine, blue DH's, ect - like someone we know does.

Well, that cleared things up.

As others have stated by their question...do you mean after they've been used, or as one PP stated, does each person have their own, as in color-coded?

No sharing AFTER USING.

Agreed; I share CLEAN towels with my family members... once they're used they're in the laundry.

We don't have color-coded towles or anything, but my husband will occasionally use my towel after he showers. I don't really like it when he does that, but it is really no big deal.

I typically use one towel for the whole week, hanging it to dry between uses. I'm just wiping clean water off of my clean body, so I figure the towel doesn't actually get that dirty.

Wow. You folks must wash a lot of towels!! I hate laundry too much for all that.

I shower in the am and hang my towel to dry. Dh showers in the pm (when he is home) and uses the now dry towel. I was clean when I dried off with it and so is he. I guess I don't see the problem.

I never use anyone else's towel, but DH and sometimes DS will use whatever towel comes to hand. They can't remember which one is their towel for some reason If I find out that they have used my towel I get a clean one. We re-use our towels about 3 times before they go to the laundry.
