In our family, our skin is so dry (generations of dryness on both sides of the family) I do believe it would crack and fall off if we were to shower or bathe every day. It literally hurts just thinking about doing that! Dermatoligists have told us, "Do not bathe every day because the water strips the oils from your skin, and it's not really necessary." Most times, after a shower or bath, my skin burns from the dryness until I slather on some heavy-duty, nonscented lotion and let it soak in. Usually, after about 24 hours, it stops hurting bc the natural oils have finally built back up a bit until I feel like my skin is like "normal people.". Sponge-bathing in between reg. showers and baths is the way we keep clean without absolutely decimating our skin.

(Same with our hair and scalps. Terribly dry and painful. Utter and complete frizz bomb on day one after shampoo, getting towards normal on 2nd day, wash on day 3 or 4.)

This is pretty much how most people in my family are.

Let me ask you this - if you fell headfirst into a pile of shit, would you be content with just wiping the worst of it off with some toilet paper?

My guess is no.

so what you are saying is that your anus is not different from your face. which might as well be true.

I love your logic. I feel I deal with people like you all the time.

Greasy hair and a smelly vagina is not so appealing and ladies don't kid yourselves, your vagina smells if you don't wash it everyday

This what wipes, washcloths, and sponge baths are for.

What's the point of a sponge bath? You can jump in the shower for 5 minutes and be done with it.
And a wet wipe is not the same as warm water and soap

OMG - do you seriously shower after every time you poop? This is so insane!!!

PP clearly doesn't have a lot going in terms of BMs. If she were like my husband who has, on average, 3 BMs a day, she'd be living in that shower!

thanks for the helpful info. No, i dont poop everyday.

Maybe you should try more fiber in your diet?

I take a stool softener on weekends

Haha. Try flax or chia seeds, ground. They will assist you for sure.

I never heard of cleaning specially after a BM (other than with toilet paper of course). How odd. Of course I shower every day and clean all areas thoroughly then, so perhaps that serves the same purpose. But it never occurred to me to keep wet wipes on hand for those moments ... I am not a diaper-wearing infant!
