The only thing that kinda creeps me out,, is when you sit in a chair or something right after someone else and the seat is still warm.

I love that... when it is cold out anyways. lol

Ok some of you need to come off it a bit. I'm not that much of a germ freak. Why do you think one of the only cleaning chemicals I own is bleach? I don't like chemicals. I did want to find out if there is a spray for fabric though that I can try. I just think somebody should have a right to bury their face in their pillow and blankets without thinking of the last butt that was sitting there for two hours. Its worse when the place smells like butt. Seriously for you who think I'm a germ freak, stick your faces to the chairs next time you're in a waiting room and smell. You'll be a little grossed out too. I do everything on my bed. I do homework, I eat, I sleep. Cleanliness is important there.

I just looked up the dish soap as a curiosity. What I found out did indeed gross me out. I still eat off the cafeteria dishes but with less enthusiasm than ever.

I have never stuck my nose to a cushion or mattress and I will never do it. I have people who sit on my couch, constantly, and I don't go sniffing after them. And I'm perfectly healthy!

Some things are just better left alone.......but if you have an issue with all of this, then don't let people in your room to sit on your bed. It's a simple answer.

There are just much more HUGE things to worry about in life, germwise and otherwise, than this, in my humble opinion.

My best intentions.......

Well, if its the smell of butts thats bothering you, then say its the smell, not the germs, because quite frankly, the germs we come in contact related to butts in NOTHING compared to what hands touch. If anything on your couch would be germified the most, it would be the armrests, not the cushions.

If we stopped to think about all the stuff we come into contact with on a daily basis we'd all be grossed out to the fullest. Did you know that the majority of money in circulation has human feces on it? No kidding! People don't always wash hands in public restrooms and then they pull out money to pay for their lunch... GROSS! Money goes more places that we are best not to think about! Truly... so worrying about a butt that was covered in jeans on your couch is nothing compared to worrying about germs covered HANDS fondling the arms of your couch. Just trying to put it into perspective.

Now if those butts on your couch were naked, then you've got issues

PS: I HAVE slept nightly on a couch in my life. Both a pull-out couch and a regular couch. Those couches were also hand-me-downs and the pull-out couch had some questionable stains the mattress.... but I put on sheets and a mattress cover and slept soundly every night for years. That couch is now in my daughter's room and SHE sleeps on it when she has friends over.

Whoever said that?

And I don't think anyone was "on it". You brought up something that grossed you out and people began posting their own thoughts on the matter or ways to put your mind at ease. If you didn't want feedback, why did you say anything??

Well don't let them sit on your pillow then, or have them sit on the floor, or put a blanket on your bed you can take off....I'm still stuck on the whole "butt smell" thing and why it would really be an issue unless the people on your bed were naked. And no thanks, I have no need to go smelling where people sit....LOL the thought of doing so makes me laugh=x Germs don't crawl out through people's pants from their butt to get on your bed...but if it really makes you that uncomfortable don't let them sit on your bed, get an extra blanket to throw over it, or spray the febreeze. Germs from them just sitting on your bed really aren't an issue, I'd be more worried about their hands being on my bed...but I really wouldn't worry about that either unless your friends are grossly unclean.
