Are the shower floors really that dirty?

<p>I think men and women thousands of years ago who hunted with sticks and rocks and weren't afraid of large mammals coming at them with full speed would be proud of our generation.</p>

<p>Yes. And their average lifespan was...?</p>

It's the adventure and risk of life, man!</p>

<p>And they went without showering for weeks :D 8 sec...1sec</p>

<p>Showering = showers...
thousands of years ago = no showers...
no showers = clouds...
clouds = rain...
rain = water...
water = clean!</p>

<p>If you like urine,jizz, period blood, and body hair on your feet then by all means don't wear flip-flops. After a nice hot bath you will crawl into your bed and rub that stuff all over.</p>

<p>Even if your living in a dorm room with a shower I would still recommend flip-flops or a bottle of lysol.</p>

<p>IT doesn't look gross but I would never trust it. I don't know whats been on it and how many drunk people threw up on the floor the night before. so naturally i like some protection (flip flops) in the bathroom... dunno I would keep my flip flops on. I never understood how some people went in there barefoot</p>

<p>Pushka-They also ate alot of raw meat but I know you wouldn't do that too often today...</p>

<p>Wow some of the bathrooms on here are pretty bad. I am going to MSU, and will have community bathrooms, and as far as I know they are cleaned everyday. Not once or twice a week, but everyday. I don't see how you could do it otherwise.</p>

<p>Out of curiosity, which MSU?</p>

<p>Michigan State University - East Lansing....didn't know it had multiple campuses.</p>

<p>You read the question incorrectly. :) "MSU" could be Michigan State (which is the only way I ever see it referred to), Mississippi State, Montana State, Montclair State, Minnesota State, Midwestern State, Missouri State, Murray State...you get the idea. :)</p>

<p>and the odds of you being the first one to shower after they clean the bathroom are...?</p>

<p>cleaning everday reduces dirt and grime (now i sound like a cleaning commerical) but it's not a perfect system. and at most places i've been to/heard stories from friends from, "everyday" means Monday through Friday to the janitorial staff.</p>

<p>and i dont really understand what's so hard about slipping on flip-flops before heading to the shower. it takes what, two seconds?</p>

<p>oh I forgot to add fecal matter on your feet. Because after a couple minutes on the toilet the first place you go to is the shower to cleanse yourself</p>

<p>Oh I didn't want to make it seem that I wouldn't wear flip-flops. I would NEVER EVER condone not wear flip-flops in bathrooms, I really don't care how much they say they clean them. Like Cards said, it only takes 2 seconds and it protects you from things that could plague you the rest of your life. </p>

<p>But you also have to remember to change out your flip-flops every once in a while. Don't let them start growing stuff.</p>
