Here is a question that have been
bothering me for a while. How protective
is the head of the penis? Can a man get an
infection or STDs just be rubbing the head
against something not "clean"? What about
touching the head when using the restroom
without washing your hands first? I do not
like the head of my penis to touch or rub
against my bed sheets, my used towell, or
dirty clothes. Am I over reacting, or is
it normal? How safe is it?
Thanks.

No, you cannot catch an STD from rubbing
your penis against something unclean,
unless it has JUST been covered in an
infected person's blood/sexual secretions.
Other infections are possible, depending
on how dirty whatever you're rubbing up
against is.
as for the head of your penis rubbing up
against your bedsheets and pants: that's a
slight overreaction in my opinion.

yeah sounds like your being a bit
paranoid. you're not going to catch an
infection from your clothes or bathtowel
or your bed. sexually transmitted diseases
are just that; they are diseases
transmitted by having sex. the only other
way they can be caught is from a mother to
her child during birth or breastfeeding,
or sharing needles with someone who has a
disease.
there are lots of strange myths that fly
about the place that you can catch stds
from toilet seats and stuff. you cannot.
stds are transmitted through the blood,
semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk of a
person.
