Now, I don't really consider myself a hippie, I just like to smoke weed. However, I do shower every day before I go to work but if I don't have to on a day off I am willing to be a little dirty.
hmm well I often consider having a shower, then ending up realising that I didn't... so therefore probably not as much as I should do, but evidently enough that I feel comfortable with
You people shower often; I shower twice a week, so every 3-4 days, but I wash my hands between 5 and 8 times a day and my face daily. My hands are so clean even people with absolutely no immune system can safely eat off them
I wouldn't say your hands are 'so clean' if you wash them 5-8 times a day. I would hope you wash them every time you go to the bathroom, before you eat, after you cough/sneeze into them, after you touch various things when you're out and about etc. That's more than 5-8 times a day! I'd not be eating off your hands and my immune system's pretty good! Hands are perhaps the one part of your body that definitely do need to be kept washed and clean. And wash your face at least twice! Especially in the evening, you need to wash away all the nasty crap and dirt in the air that clings to your delicate skin.
Well, showering is a battle for me, either I get too Depressed to shower daily or the entire Bitch of taking a complete shower every day for me is physically exhausting, so I am in the 12% of those who shower like 4 times a week and I would say I shower like 5 times a week in a good week. However, no matter what I change my underwear everyday and usually try to wash my crotch and pits on the days I don't shower. So, I am not totally like gross and decrepit.
I usually go two weeks not taking a shower then I'll get a shower and wait another two weeks. People don't like the way I smell.
When I had long hair I showered everyday or it would just feel shitty and greasy. Now that it's all off I can stretch maybe like 2-3 days and still feel mildly clean. But if I'm going out I like showering first and making sure I smell good.
well i have been one sick mother for the last 4 days. it seems like i'm breeding a case of food poisoning. i go to the doc later today. i'll know more of what is going down with me. i have slept, sweated, puked, and shitted since thursday. to day is the first day i'm doing better. i have not had a shower since wednesday nor, have i brush my teeth. i had a nasty case of body odor and my breath smelled of rancid vomit. well, today, i brushed my gums, teeth, tounge and, i flossed too; and i got a shower too. i smell like flowers now... well, maybe not "like flowers," i just don't stink anymore! arty:
Another 4-year-old thread I'd never noticed bumped into my view. Interesting the different bathing habits of ppl. I have a routine, which means on work nights I take a shower. On weekends I sometimes skip a night or two. I never shower more than once a day. A hot shower, even in the hot summertime is very relaxing and feels good. In the winter I like to take hot soaking baths, then walk out in the cold for a while. That is really refreshing. I do not understand why ppl shower or bathe in the mornings. How did you get dirty in bed? (OK, I know some ppl get nasty in bed - that I can understand - but ppl who sleep alone shower in the morning). I always shower at night so I am clean, oil free and relaxed when I get into my clean bed. After six hours of laying there, I find no reason to get wet in the morning. Just an observation I've had over the years (and an inconvenience when I have to do my morning shit while someone is singing in the shower.)
I wash my face twice a day... I keep my ass clean all day everyday but only actually shower 3-4 times a week. Natural odors can be a good thing.
