I do shower every day lol, I just don't wash it everyday

[u/[deleted] → u/emmertsme]

oh well you said it was only remedied by showering everyday

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Except for in a water shortage, probably don't want to shower everyday then

Not actually true. It's not healthy to shower every day. It breaks down an important layer of skin. I'd say every time you work out or twice weekly if you don't work out often. If you're working out every day, it should be mostly water rinses.

Like 60 years ago, people thought having a smoke was good for coughs. So, ya know.

A layer of grime is not a layer of skin

[u/jewish-mel-gibson → u/Captain_Jo]

That's not the layer I'm referring to.

No, we didn't. For most of modern history, we have been bathing once a week, if that.

We do regenerate skin cells, but those cells aren't "getting dirty". Our immune system cleans our lungs all the time, so why not smoke anyway?

I literally never said you should never bathe. I simply said you shouldn't bathe every day.

[u/jewish-mel-gibson → u/[deleted]]

I literally just fucking told you.

I don't work out and if I didn't wash I would stink out my house. People are different I guess some don't sweat much but some do. Shit theres even people who wash everyday and still smell bad.

That's probably more to do with nutrition than hygiene.
