A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Colorado reveals that women's hands carry more bacteria than men's. The study says the bacteria on individuals' hands were not significantly affected by regular hand washing but by the different skin pH. Men generally have more acidic skin may be part of the reasons for the less bacteria.

GUEST8541	Before reading this thread, I just thought it is because women do much housework than men, cooking, washing etc. Obviously, I am wrong, hehe.
