As a kid we always had shampoo and conditioner in the shower. Nobody used bodywash or soap. We washed our hair once in a while and thats it. We washed our bodies too, but just water. Anyway I’m in my 40s and still never started with bodywash, it’s seriously something you don’t need. I do use shampoo but that is more because I like it, it’s also unnecessary.

Yeah, the whole changing your underwear every week? I found it out to be unnecessary as well.

LMAO, brother fucking stinks and nobodies bothered to tell them.

We use soap to wash away the stubborn oils that cling to our skin. Water can wash away the dirt and some of the scents, but over time that oil and musk is gonna build up and give you the sort of funk that’s reminiscent of dry aged beef and a crawl space.

You may think you don’t stink, but thats cause you’re nose blind. I’ve met many people who don’t believe in soap, and they all have the same muskiness to them. It varies from person to person, sometimes it’s not THAT bad, but it’s always there.

  Nose blindness is terrible when you’re autistic. Or when you just had a vacation with no plans and just spent it all inside killing time being depressed.

    I’m pretty fucking autistic, and I’ve never used nose blindness as an excuse to carry my stink out of my house.
    
    Now to be clear, I’ve also dealt with depression, and my environment has not always been the cleanest. I have had a depression den in the past. But I always put an effort into separating my clean clothes from my room stink, and making sure I always showered before I left the house.
    
    But I also have the high masking flavor of autism, so maybe that’s why that level of effort has come naturally.

    You didn’t, somebody else did. Or maybe you didn’t know it. Or maybe you have such a metabolism. Whatever.

    There is a huge space called depression, in some parts of it people can shower, in some other parts of it people can’t leave the bed.

    “Masking” and “natural” kinda contradict each other.
