Could you go into detail? Is it the soap, or the water that fucks up your skin? And how does it get “fucked up”?

I don’t want to go into too much detail about medical stuff in public but I don’t believe it is about soap alone because it also affects skin that i don’t soap up in the shower.

You’re not anonymous on social media? That’s always a mistake.
Dawg, what’s the point of showering if you don’t wash your entire body?
There’s no valid excuse for not bathing every day, except if you’re camping or something. If you really are having negative skin reactions, you should go see a dermatologist. I’m not a doctor, so maybe I’m wrong.
You say that you don’t stink, but you also don’t bathe every day, so I’m not going to trust your judgment on matters of hygiene. You should try to get an opinion from someone who wouldn’t lie to you. I have a cousin who doesn’t regularly shower, and he tries to hide it by slathering himself with cologne, but that just makes him smell like body odor and cologne. I tell him he smells like shit, but he doesn’t care. He readily admits that he is just too lazy to shower every day.
Idk why I care so much about this. It’s your life, be gross if you want to. Just… Don’t lie to yourself, I guess.

I don’t wash in the shower what I wash out of the shower.
I am an adult and it’s weird you and others assume that I haven’t consulted a doctor about this in my entire life.
Not all health problems are curable, so actually doctors’ advice includes (or can include) “don’t shower every day if that exacerbates your condition”.
My partner wouldn’t lie to me about this, which I know because sometimes they do tell me I need a shower. Not often though. It’s weird that you think it’s so hard to tell, yet also are so adamant that it must be done every day - yet that’s my experience with most people online.
It seems pretty clear it just grosses people out who never questioned the habit.

Like, you’re trying to make your point sound reasonable and well thought-out, but then you write stuff like
Wtf does that mean? Your hands? Your face? Your asshole?
I’m not a doctor, but I’ve been on this earth for enough decades to have met all kinds of people with different showering habits. Those that don’t shower daily are easy to identify, either by their smell up close, or by their oily skin from a distance. Maybe you’re an anomaly, and should be studied by doctors for your superior anti-stink genes?
Different people have different sensitivity to smells. I’ve known two people who have no sense of smell (and one of them habitually stinks). Maybe your partner likes your stench? Maybe they just tolerate it because they love you?
Again, I don’t care how you live your life, esp since it’s unlikely I’ll ever have to smell you. I have no ill-will towards you, and hope you live a long and happy life. But for the sake of curiosity and internet conversation, I’m not backing down from my position if all you have is a “just trust me bro”.

What’s the point of commenting if you are just going to belittle someone else immediately after they said they didn’t want to talk about it?
