Not necessarily with any towels, just generally asking if it happens often to others. ---

You mean like with a bathmat? No. But I’ve seen some damn sexy toilet seat covers. ---

I like the feel of water on my skin so I usually dry my hair and do a half-hearted job of drying anything else. When I used to swim competitively I was about the only one who didn’t get out of the pool and immediately grab a towel. ---

I put on a terrycloth robe, and wrap my hair in a small terry turban and have breakfast while drying off. Lazy, though when I did it at my mom’s house when she had a housefull of guests someone was convinced I did it because the pulling of the towel on the skin is bad for your complexion or some such nonsense.:dubious::smack: ---

I use one towel only. A few seconds on my hair, then a total of about ten seconds to swipe the towel over the rest of my body, then I hang it on the bar. I stand naked in front of the sink to brush my hair & teeth and do whatever other morning ablution items are necessary, walk through the bedroom to the closet to find something to wear to work, and by the time I start to get dressed, I’m pretty dry. As for erections- I usually wake up with one and it tends to fade in the shower if my wife hasn’t already put it to good use before letting me out of bed. If she hasn’t, I may rub one out in the shower, unless I’m running short of time. The mornings I get up and go straight to the gym before work- same as above, but no whacking off in the gym shower.
