  Like, you’re trying to make your point sound reasonable and well thought-out, but then you write stuff like

  I don’t wash in the shower what I wash out of the shower.

  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?

  My partner wouldn’t lie to me about this, which I know because sometimes they do tell me I need a shower.

  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”.

    I only shower on hair wash days. Showering isn’t the only form of bathing, and I don’t understand why people think soap stops working outside a shower. I feel absolutely gross if I can’t take a wet washcloth with some soap and wipe all the grime off periodically. If you’re relying on a daily shower to keep you clean, and don’t wash outside a shower, you must be absolutely disgusting.

      Why can’t you use a washcloth inside a shower? Why do you think sitting in a pool of your own grime is cleaner than having a shower wash it down the drain?

        In what world does your bathroom sink sit in a pool of grime? Clean your bathroom, geeze.

    What parts of your body do you wash regularly outside the shower? Is it a non-zero amount? Then you understand what I mean, right?

    How are you correlating the smells of all these people with how often they shower? How many people have you asked that question of, because I’m guessing it’s “none” and you’re simply assuming that everyone who showers every other day is detectable by your nose - rather than those being people who haven’t washed for a month.

    My partner tells me on the rare occasion when I smell bad, so there’s no reason to think they’re saving my feelings. I can also smell the change.

    You’re so keen to assume all these details about my life instead of believing what seems to me to be extremely unsurprising - that it takes at least one person a few days to start smelling bad.

    people of different age, race and sex all smell different, with a common gene among Asian people resulting in little to know body odour. This shouldn’t be hard to believe.

      Is that the case? Or do they only tell you once the smell becomes unbearable? Usually, when you reach the point that you can smell your own stank, it’s really bad for other people. Have you had an open conversation with them about this? It’s an awkward topic for most people. If you’re so adamantly defending your point here on the internet anonymously, I wonder if you’re more defensive about it IRL, and off-putting to people who would otherwise be honest with you.

      In any case, one of us is delusional here. You? Me? I don’t think we’ll reach a consensus on that one.

        I noticed that you didn’t reply to the following pretty important things:

        How are you correlating the smells of all these people with how often they shower? How many people have you asked that question of?

        and

        people of different age, race and sex all smell different, with a common gene among Asian people resulting in little to know body odour.

        So I’m not going to get into further personal details until you show some good faith there.

        For that matter, you never said how you were able to know how you yourself start to smell so badly after merely 24 hours out of the shower if this information is so unavailable.

        And just remember that it was you who used the word “delusional”, not me.
