Watch a crime show and watch the crime scene people wearing gloves and touching things within the crime scene (bodies, clothing, evidence, etc) and then touching their pen, notebook, camera, phone etc. while still wearing the same gloves.
The difference there is the investigators are wearing gloves to protect the crime scene. Not to protect themselves...
That said, I wear gloves to prevent blisters when working or to protect myself from hot stuff. I don't wear gloves just to keep my hands clean. That's what soap and water is for.
