If your SO showered once a week.

I could handle him bathing every other day but once/twice a week?! Deal breaker. If we were in a locale that had water restrictions or no access to frequent showers, I might cut him some slack but every place I've been where that was true also had public baths and bidets.

Poor personal hygiene is an automatic dealbreaker. A quick daily shower is not going to kill the environment.

Did she give a reason why? I’m really curious.

I don't shower everyday in the winter.

Ew.

Op here. She said she only showers twice a week and washes her hair off once a week because soap strips your skins natural oils. She has a quick rinse off every morning with just water. She is a vegan, and I thought that was hard enough, but this is gross.

Oh! Honestly that's different. Not my style, but totally different than what you claimed initially. Why not give us the full story??

She doesn't smell bad but it grosses me out. I am seriously considering breaking up with her. Now I don't want to go down on her anymore because it repulses me.

If she doesn't smell bad, what is the problem?

It isn't for me, but I'd say if she doesn't smell, she tastes fine (you obviously didn't notice) what's the real problem?

I think she should at least wash her lady bits and armpits daily - not very oily, so no excuse there

You're not supposed to use soap on your lady bits, ever!!

Where is she from? I am from Europe and we shower maybe 2-3 Times a week unless we work out or get dirty for other reasons. We also use bidets (spell) and I guarantee you that we are cleaner down there than any American I know. I also clean my armpits at least once a day.

+1 now you are describing something completely different than showering once a week. This sounds like a personal preference,not bad hygiene.

No! Showering once a week is showering once a week, regardless of the reason.

He is going to be in for a rude awakening when he gets older and realizes "saving water" is a ploy by the water company to charge us more for using less water. We keep reusing the same water we crap in. You either live in a place that has water or you don't. The politics of water are so much more than "wasting resources."
