Groundbreaking Toe Scum Research - NOW AVAILABLE!

I recently administered a survey to a very small group (20 participants total). The survey asked for very personal information, all around the basic question of 'how long does it take you to shower, and which parts of yourself do you wash in that time?'

I had two main hypotheses to prove/disprove:
Hypothesis 1. No one washes inside their ears with water in the shower.
Hypothesis 2: I am not hygenically deviant just because I do not wash between my toes every day.

Below, please find a summary of relevant information obtained, and final conclusions.

Things I could have guessed, but am glad to have validated by this survey

• There is a directly proportionate relationship between the amount of time spent in the shower and the number of parts washed
• There’s just about an even split between the number of people who like ‘showering together’ and those who don’t. I myself am torn completely in half. If my shower was twice as large and had two shower heads, I’d be completely pro-.
• Most people clean their ears in some way. Except one of my coworkers, who admitted to me that she likes to ‘keep it natural’
  

Things that caught me off guard

• 25 percent of people wash inside their mouths in the shower on a daily basis.
  That number jumps to 40 when they’re given extra time. That is just weird.
• Males are much more likely than females to be cleanfreaks! Who knew!?? Who knew that the reason men spend 15 minutes in the shower is because they're actually CLEANING themselves? (I admit to assuming it was for other um. activities.)

Some of the ‘comments’ offered by survey responders were:

• Is there something wrong with me that I don't wash between my toes?
  (note from author: ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! THAT IS WHAT CLOGGED DRAINS ARE FOR!!! WHO NEEDS TO SCRUB WHEN YOU’RE STANDING IN AN INCH OR TWO OF WATER ANYWAY???)
• Moisturizing after is essential!
• Dirty elbows or death!

In conclusion:

Hypothesis 1. No one washes inside their ears with water in the shower.
Result: Neither Proven nor Disproven. Approximately half of respondents answered yes to the question of "Do you wash the insides of your ears in the shower with shower water?"

Hypothesis 2: I am not officially a slob just because I do not wash between my toes every day.
Proven Enough!! Only 6/20 answered yes to the question of whether they wash in between their toes on a daily basis. (However, over half do this in long luxurious showers. Fair enough. THOUGH these are probably the same crazies that rinse their mouth out with shower spray. And i don't WANT to be like those people.)
