I don't wash in the shower what I wash out of the shower.
I am an adult and it's weird you and others assume that I haven't consulted a doctor about this in my entire life.
Not all health problems are curable, so actually doctors' advice includes (or can include) "don't shower every day if that exacerbates your condition".
My partner wouldn't lie to me about this, which I know because sometimes they do tell me I need a shower. Not often though. It's weird that you think it's so hard to tell, yet also are so adamant that it must be done every day - yet that's my experience with most people online.
It seems pretty clear it just grosses people out who never questioned the habit.
Like, you're trying to make your point sound reasonable and well thought-out, but then you write stuff like
Wtf does that mean? Your hands? Your face? Your asshole?
I'm not a doctor, but I've been on this earth for enough decades to have met all kinds of people with different showering habits. Those that don't shower daily are easy to identify, either by their smell up close, or by their oily skin from a distance. Maybe you're an anomaly, and should be studied by doctors for your superior anti-stink genes?
Different people have different sensitivity to smells. I've known two people who have no sense of smell (and one of them habitually stinks). Maybe your partner likes your stench? Maybe they just tolerate it because they love you?
Again, I don't care how you live your life, esp since it's unlikely I'll ever have to smell you. I have no ill-will towards you, and hope you live a long and happy life. But for the sake of intellectual curiosity and internet conversation, I'm not backing down from my position if all you have is a "just trust me bro".
I only shower on hair wash days. Showering isn't the only form of bathing, and I don't understand why people think soap stops working outside a shower. I feel absolutely gross if I can't take a wet washcloth with some soap and wipe all the grime off periodically. If you're relying on a daily shower to keep you clean, and don't wash outside a shower, you must be absolutely disgusting.
Why can't you use a washcloth inside a shower? Why do you think sitting in a pool of your own grime is cleaner than having a shower wash it down the drain?
In what world does your bathroom sink sit in a pool of grime? Clean your bathroom, geeze.
... You bathe in your bathroom sink?
Yes? It's like cleaning as you cook so you don't have a pile of dishes when you're done. You get something all over your hands, you just wash your hands. You do something and get sweaty, you just go and clean it up before it dries. It's so much better than sitting in your own sweat, waiting to go home and shower.
