What do you think of this statement?

Everyone should shower daily and mire often depending in your activities. Hygiene is important to be healthy.

Medical community says, strenuous work or exercise may require more frequency, but for the most part, once a day or once every two days is sufficient to maintain healthy hygiene.

Once daily as opposed to twice means half the water use.

I disagree with this. Showering so often is bad for your skin, as not only are you cleaning off dirt and sweat, but you're also stripping your body of it's natural oils and symbiotic bacteria.
On top of this, it can heavily dry out your skin. As someone who already has naturally bad skin, this would turn my body into a cracked, drought ridden desert.

I do not agree with the statement, for more than one reason.

I often get two showers a day, especially in the summer or when I am working outdoors. However, for most purposes one per day should be adequate.

why isnt the word "men" in this statement

it's just as important

It’s sexist, of course. All adults should bathe regularly; the need for hygiene isn’t based upon gender. The idea that it’s more important for women to smell clean than men is a part of cultural misogyny.

This is why I only shower once a year

All adults should bathe often enough to smell pleasant to be near.

Well, I shower in the morning and bathe in the evening. Or, shower again if the bath is not available wherever I am at that time. But I wash twice a day, which would work out to every 12 hours give or take. I think people should do whatever they want though. I value cleanliness very highly, though.

Where did it come from?

Not to sound rude. But it's your body right? Or did you lose control of your own body to someone else? It shouldn't matter what any of us do or think. Myself I'll take a shower whenever I want, and I don't care what anyone thinks, not even a wife if I had one.

Males especially should learn to wipe their asses properly. I did people's laundry for years when I managed a Dry Cleaner/laundromat. I was always giving males back their skidmark drawers without washing them. Really gross

Sounds very derogatory to women of color.
