There is actually a HUGE thread here with MANY contributors about this same issue, I'll try to find it or just search "Hygiene" or some related term and you will be pleased to find an entire segment of PC peeps who share the same and even more. I'd also like to add that bathing/hygiene/grooming etc. in my opinion has gotton waaaay out of control. When toothpaste "Tooth Powder" was being peddled door to door by salesmen in the early 1900s, they had to tell people to use it "Once a week" because if a family bought some, it was mainly used for special events and occasions. Brides to this day carry a bouquet, which when the tradition first began was because bathing was rare and the bride did not want the groom to smell her natural scent, so the flowers would be held inbetween them. "Don't lose the baby in the bath water" is an idiom that initially began because a bath was a family event: The man of the house would get the first bath because he was presumed the dirtiest, then the woman, and going on down the line until the bathwater was so dirty that they said, "Don't lose the baby!" LOL! So perhaps you were just born into the wrong time but in this day and age...I think we all were lol. Happy is the man/woman whom does not condemn himself in what he approves. You are a grown person, do what you want!
