...so go ahead and continue to dump without gloves if you want...ALSO, don't be arrogant enough to criticize folks who take the proper precautions to keep themselves safe...
The thing is you are not keeping yourself safe. Your own bacteria won't make you sick. After all, it came from your digestive system in the first place. Besides the fact that when done correctly you don't come into contact with the contents of the black tank anyway.
Additionally, what the OP saw and wearing gloves are to completely different things. The act witnessed by the OP is disgusting, but not nearly as dangerous as it might appear. I would however not handle that hose until it was cleaned or I had on gloves, but not because I would get sick. Just because it is disgusting.
