Touch butt. Touch phone.
Only clean hands?
Touch phone again, you’re touching your butt again.
Touch face after touching phone?
You have stuck your finger in your butt and then directly in to your face.
Put phone in pocket?
Yeah, now your pocket has your butt in it.
Bacteria adhere to and will keep growing on a phone.
Just think of how clean rules work for a surgeon doing prep.
Now, the danger is not as extreme as contamination isn’t going under the skin… but you are consistently touching a dirty, potentislly infectious surface all the time, and then touching everything else.

If you sit on a toilet, take a shit and use your phone at the same time, and then only wash your hands…
Your phone likely now has bacteria from your butt on it.
If you now touch your phone after washing your handsz without washing/cleaning the phone screen… your hands now have your butt’s bacteria back on them again, negating much of the point of washing your hands.

Dude, even if you don’t take your phone out of your pocket it could get shit on it. In fact, there is never a time when whatever you’re touching or putting in your mouth is totally, 100% poop free. Everything has shit on it.

You got butt bacteria on every surface of every room you fart in.
Your phone is not much worse.

Do you use both hands when you shit? I don’t.
