What is the problem?

 In the many internet lists of shocking things kids did growing up in the 1960’s or 1970’s, one thing always gets listed: drinking from the water hose. 

Where I grew up and where I live now the water in my hose is the same as comes out my tap. I fail to understand the issue. 

I guess it’s because I drank from the hose more times than I could count as a kid.

We drank from the hose because if we went inside we were likely to something along the lines of:

"Back outside with those dirty (bare) feet! I JUST washed that floor!"

Drank from the hose my entire childhood and so far, I'm fine.

Whiney liberal women are afraid of everything and have no sense.

They are all afraid their kids might get contaminated with bacteria or something.
