It is that bad, because most people do not continue to finger their assholes when they’re not in the bathroom.
…
Touch butt. Touch phone.
Only clean hands?
Touch phone again, you’re touching your butt again.
Touch face after touching phone?
You have stuck your finger in your butt and then directly in to your face.
Put phone in pocket?
Yeah, now your pocket has your butt in it.
…
Bacteria adhere to and will keep growing on a phone.
Just think of how clean rules work for a surgeon doing prep.
Now, the danger is not as extreme as contamination isn’t going under the skin… but you are consistently touching a dirty, potentislly infectious surface all the time, and then touching everything else.
I cannot believe I need to explain this, but unless you have shit all over your shirt and pants, you do not need to wash them every time you poop.
If you have shitstains on your underwear, yes, you do need to wash them, and generally speaking, you should be changing your underwear more often than other articles of clothing… though if you sweat a lot from your arm pits, change your shirts or under shirts often as well.
If you sit on a toilet, take a shit and use your phone at the same time, and then only wash your hands…
Your phone likely now has bacteria from your butt on it.
If you now touch your phone after washing your hands, without washing/cleaning the phone screen… your hands now have your butt’s bacteria back on them again, negating much of the point of washing your hands.
Germ theory does not stop existing and being correct because a smartphone is involved.
Dude, even if you don’t take your phone out of your pocket it could get shit on it. In fact, there is never a time when whatever you’re touching or putting in your mouth is totally, 100% poop free unless it’s fresh out of sterilization. Everything has shit on it.

Do you use both hands when you shit? I don’t.
”I cannot believe I need to explain this…”
You don’t lol. Chill out. I don’t have shit all over my phone either and I don’t “touch butt touch phone.”

You got butt bacteria on every surface of every room you fart in.
Your phone is not much worse.
Dang I thought smartphones provided temporary relief from germ theory. Stupid dumbphones.
