    This usually desends into people who shower 3 times a day calling everyone dirty scumbags for only showering once a day.

    Only a dirty scumbag would feel the necessity to shower 3 times a day. They must be really smelly :):):)

    Every night before bed, then I just jump in again in the morning and give myself a quick rinse as soon as I get out of bed, no gel or shampoo in the morning.
    I’ve wondered about this. I do it the other way around. Full shower in the morning and if I go to the gym I’ll have a rince shower in the evening but no shower gel unless im actually dirty from running or something.

    I’m not really afraid of germs or sweat as long as they’re fresh.

    I would hope anyone not showering every day will at least wash the important bits with a flannel on the days in between. I agree that most parts of the body don't necessarily need a daily wash, but face, pits and bits do!

    I shower twice in the evenings and once in the mornings and I set my alarm for 3am so I can have another shower. Just in case.

    I also change the bedding three times a day, four if I accidentally touch off a surface in the house. And I Zoflora everything, even my kid.

    Anyone else who doesn't adhere to my normal standards is a filthy git.

    How about "How often do people on the dole shower!"

    They can't afford to unless they have 10 kids. That and the fact that they spend all day smoking and drinking in Paddy Power, there's simply no time for it.

    I always wonder how many of these people who shower multiple times a day would have managed to survive during the years of my childhood in the 60's/70's. Showers didn't exist apart maybe from a rubber hose you put on the taps to rinse your hair, and baths were a weekly affair, usually on the weekend, with multiple family members sharing the same bath water, topped up in between with a bit more hot water if you were really lucky.

    Once every 2 days if I can get away with it. But normally once a day when I get out of bed in the morning. Wakes me up for the day and I feel much better.
    Anyone that showers more than once per day has issues and is wasting water unnecessarily.

    I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

    I bet Aongus Von Bismarck has the exact same shower routine as Patrick Bateman.

    I grew up in the 90s and that was the case in my house every Sunday. And we were well off! Just a habit from when my parents were growing up I guess.

    I shower every other day. My answer used to be more common on these types of threads but I think they’ve all been scared away. My whole family are ‘every other day’ bathers and I’ve never known any of them to stink. And closeness to them has nothing to do with it, if they stank, I’d know about it.

    Possibly because it was probably 30-40 years ago and it's easy enough these for normal people to distinguish a common ground between electing to be extra clean and being forced to bath once a week in a tin tub beside the fire.

    Similar to not missing corporal punishment or smallpox really.

    A good It Were All Fields In Mah Day riff, nonetheless. :D

    At least once a day in the morning.

    Some of the filthy dirtbirds on the train I have the unfortunate luck to inhabit their vicinity would appear like they don't shower (or wash their clothes) for weeks if not months on end. Digusting sacks of ****.
