I told my friend tonight was a shower night so I couldn’t go with her to a thing (because we would get back too late and I wouldn’t have time to shower) and she responded with “does this imply you don’t shower everyday?” Does everyone shower everyday???

i think a lot of people with normal energy capacity shower every day. i’ve found that you can tell them you shower every other day and they’re ok with it usually. but any longer than that and they judge u

Learning that it’s apparently not common to not shower every day or even every other day is wild to me. No one in my family showers more than 2-4 times a week. Same for in my husbands family. Maybe it’s a regional thing or a poor people thing? I’m not saying it’s a good thing, just saying I didn’t grow up knowing different

I don’t really judge but I exercise every day so I gotta shower every day. If I don’t I’ll go 2 days as long as I don’t sweat

I do, but I don’t expect others to. It makes me feel better and I feel gross if I get in bed without showering first. I hope the people around me shower at least once every 3 days

neurotypical people are really weird about this but if you don’t smell and you aren’t getting sweaty it really doesn’t matter at all. i just don’t tell people my shower schedule and it’s fine

Not every day but it the sentence kind of implies going for a lowkey lengthy period without showering. Going over 2 days without showering to me is grody

I shower just about daily cause I’m very active, I think if you’re doing significant physical activity on the days you don’t shower then you’re probably fine, something I also use sometimes if I don’t have the energy to shower but want to feel clean is shower wipes (I only do this on days I’m not doing sports cause I have to do my sport in a winter jacket so I sweat)

I do a full shower every other day (as in I wash my hair and body) and then I shave my legs + arms whenever I want since I’m a woman

I usually shower every other day (maybe one day more if there’s a reason I really can’t on the day I’m supposed to) but I always do “everything showers” because it just makes sense to me to wash everything at once???

I’m neurodivergent but I shower every day. It is common to shower everyday and it’s looked down upon if you don’t. Idgaf, just don’t be stinky. Just don’t go around parading it

I schedule mine so that I for sure am getting at least 2 a week and then I try to add a 3rd or 4th in if I have the energy/time to fit them in. So I shower every Sunday and every Wednesday, sometimes Fridays and then the 4th day is a whenever it happens situation

That being said I wouldn’t be in a romantic relationship with someone who doesn’t also shower every day
