The question is philosophical in nature and also requires a philosophical answer.

Answer: It is simply a demonstration of the imperfection in humanity.

The simple reason is.. Black people are naturally dirty, you can't find a white guy who uses towels and find stain in it, that's why they don't like us.. Simply truth.
You are annoyingly stupid for insulting this race that I am so proud of. I want to believe you have not been up close to the skin you so adore and worship.

The purpose of bathing is to clean the dirt from our body. With the application of soap( any), the cleansing is made easy.

But after bathing with soap, the towel still get dirty after bath.

Why? Let's see who can get close
you don't have work?

On Nairaland, 24/7. Like virtual assistant, or customer service.

Because people have a problem differentiating dirt from dead skin cells.

Regardless of how hard you scrub your skin, the moment you step out of the shower, all it takes is for you to rub your finger vigorously on a patch of your skin on your back, tighs, or even leg and you see the dead skin crumbling as the friction of your hands rub on the skin.

It's not dirt....its dead skin cells and a mixture of skin oils. That's what makes your towel look dirty.

By the way, if you use a towel longer than 1 week,.....

That one is your own thinking, don't generalized the issue because there are some white people that are extremely dirty. Personal hygiene has nothing to do with colour, it is just a matter of choice

You have to scrub and exfoliate with rough wash towel to get oil and grime off. Regular soft cloth and soap won't do it

This is the problem with us. Give me the name of ONE white guy you have been with who has used a towel without stain on it.

You should come here and see how dirty some of these white folks can be.

Taking a bath doesn't mean your body is clean. What most Nigerians do in the name of bath is to wet the dirt. Your skin is likely to have a build up of dead skin cells. How often do you exfoliate to cater to this need? Some of us take our baths without a loofah increasing the chances of dead skin cells, dust and grime build up. Under these circumstances, the towel is where some of these build up settle on and overtime, your towel would appear to be dirty.


Need I also mention that your towel being wet alone is likely to attract dust , thereby making it dirty with time.
Apt...

Your towel removes dead skin cells as you rub it against your skin, that's why it stinks and gets dirty after a few days

Many things make the towels get dirty within a short frame of time.

Some towels would get dirty within 2days.

While some would take over a week to get dirty.

It takes my towel up to 12 days before getting dirty. U won't believe it.

1. Where you hang your towel. If you hang your towel in a place where dust would easy touch it, it would quickly get dirty.
Like hanging it in a room where you sweep a d the dust would fly to anywhere near the towel.

2. Tying ur body with towel after cleaning.
Some people still have their towels around them after bathing or cleaning their bodies.
They don't realize that the sweat from their bodies would go straight to the wet towel. I immediately hang my towel after bathing.

3. What you use to hang your towel. Alot of people use their wardrobes or doors or chairs to hang towels after bathing.
God forbid bad thing.

Iv not done such in last 15 years of my life.

Those doors and chairs could be dirty/dusty. Cos you obviously done clean/wash them everyday.
They would send dirt straight to the towels.

4. Lastly, and most importantly, Thorough rincing of the body with just water after using soap.
I use up more water to rinse my body after bathing than I use while washing.

I rince with my palms till no single part of my body is slippery.
No single sign of soap would remain on my body. None at all.
Even if it's bathing with a bowl, without shower, I rince for up to 5mins.
I even rince the entire walls of that bathroom with water.


Do all these, and you can use your towel for over one week without any soapy-smell or one single dirt.

If you bath thoroughly and rince your body with clean water thoroughly, your towels would find much dead cells to remove anymore.

the more you scrub your skin, the more dead skin cells you release

The more you had scrubbed your skin with sponge&soap and rinsed with water(thoroughly), the less dead skin cells your towel would meet on that same skin.
