Your boyfriend is right about germs, but that isn't the reason you want to use warm water. The solubility of substances in water increases as the temperature goes up. Using warmer temperatures greatly increases the water's ability to remove polar stains on your hands, and aids in the formation of micelles (of the soap molecules). This helps the soap molecules to dissolve the non polar oils and greases faster.

As for warm water being a breading ground, drying your hands right away and using running water should help with that.

Does a washing machine clean clothes better than washing by hand?

yes. a hundred times better. Actually not necessarily. Washing by hand works extremely well if done properly. In fact, a company named Dyson in the UK actually designed a washing machine which better imitates the hand washing action to get the clothes cleaner. People tend to assume that just because something is automatic it works better, but this is not always true. Washing by hand does a much better job of flexing the fabric. Of course, it's a lot more work too.
