I always use a towel even when at home.
We do too. Towels are a lot easier wash than furniture. We keep plenty of towels handy for guests however most are here to enjoy the pool deck and they bring their own beach towels. If we are the guests, we bring our own. To us, it is just common courtesy.
I'm old fashioned, when running supply lines to toilets and faucets I always use solid tubing, nothing to weaken over time due to temperature exposure or pressure, once they are tightened at each end and are not leaking you're finished.Off topic, but interesting comment. My sister and a friend of our have both had their homes flood when solid tubing failed for their toilets. My sister said her insurance person and a plumber have both said they see solid tubing fail far more often.
Interesting, I would have to talk to my plumber friend and call my insurance.
But again, a solid supply line from your shut off to the bottom of the toilet tank is solid brass. I have seen solid brass p-traps corrode at the bottom of the trap because of all the grey waste that goes down a kitchen and bathroom sink and as it sits in there would eat into the brass, so I always use PVC there, but a supply line to a toilet is only seeing fresh water so again the only place they would leak is if not tightened enough upon installation, which gets corrected right away. Once done that's it. If these cases were due to an amateur installing it incorrectly and not done by a professional plumber I could see that here could be the possibility of them leaking and if that's the case the insurance might not cover damage due to a repair that was not done correctly and by a licensed professional.
Of all the topics to be my first forum reply...
Learning about the etiquette for nudism is really interesting .
I've only enjoyed nudism in the privacy of our home and we've never hesitated to sit bare on furniture. I imagine many people who usually wear clothes have at times sat naked on their furniture. If we had friends who were nudist I wouldn't have any problem with them sitting on our furniture. There's an intimacy in that but I'd hope people to be reasonably clean. Maybe if I had experience with true nudists I'd change my tune :P
We always use towels except when we're wearing bathrobes and such, just to protect the furniture. As was pointed out earlier, it's easier to wash towels than to clean furniture. Our butts aren't always as clean as we think they are. According to one authority, the "boxer shorts" area is rife with coliform bacteria, which inhabit the lower intestines, and even showering won't remove them completely. So towels or clothing is certainly called for.
Of course, if you're alone, you're not going to give yourself something you don't already have. And your housemates probably have adapted to it as well. So feel free to sit down without a towel, as long as you don't mind cleaning the upholstery once in a while. But visitors may not have been acclimatized to your particular strain of nasties, and they're at risk if they go nude. So use a towel, and bring one of yours to any place you visit just in case they don't provide one.
