          I have hypohydrosis & super sensitive skin. People in here don’t know shit about skincare or hygiene, apparently. Ironic. Lol so don’t take it too personal.

              My partner gets super dry skin and cant shower everyday during winter. I shower daily, as in enough water to use soap where I smell and rinse after.

      The point is to take care of your hygiene, if showering less is enough for you that’s great

      While you’re right, it’s missing the forest for the trees. It’s just quippy way of saying “takes care of one’s hygiene”

      But yes, it’s mostly a common myth that you have to shower every day, ideally do what feels right/works for you to have a good hygiene

          Good thing they don’t have a mouth, could you imagine morning breath in addition to whatever they’ve got going on?

      Yeah I think there’s a difference between having a smell and smelling bad. I’ve been told many times that I have a smell(musk) and that it’s different from when I smell bad. A female friend of mine has borrowed clothes and protective equipment from me. Rain jacket: smells like me, kneepads: smell really bad.
