    I am from the United States but I am pretty sure that most people in the United Kingdom do not use washcloths. My ex-boyfriend’s parents emigrated from Scotland. When I stayed at their home I searched and searched for a washcloth in their linen closet, to no avail. I was told by my boyfriend that they do not use them – they just rub soap on their bodies and use their hands. I took a couple of washcloths with me the next time I visited and left them there – my ex-boyfriend says they are still there in the back of the closet untouched. The only disturbing thing to me about the shared soap policy was finding his father’s white pubic hairs on the soap.

    It seems that there is some misunderstanding as to how a wash cloth is used (at least how I use them). I have read several replies that people think that a washcloth is left in the shower/bath, to be used again, possibly by someone else. I can see how that would be perceived as gross! When I use a wash cloth, it gets used once, them laundered. That’s how my whole family does it. The result is a stack on 30-40 wash cloths in the linen closet. Certainly I can and have showered without one. But I definitely prefer to use one. How else can you scrub your back?
