Quite honestly I'm the opposite of a germaphobe ... I'll friggin' eat a hamburger or tacos or whatever for dinner without having washed my hands once all day.

I'm also 100% sure I'd never get sick from never washing my hands after using the rest room ... but I do so because I don't want to get someone else sick who might lack my virtually unassailable immune system. Plus it's icky to not wash after #2 ... but I'm not actually worried about the germs. Weren't they just inside me like 1 minute ago?
