I remember seeing pictures of Nick Nolte when he tried that.

Soaping down and washing away - everyday! - is the simplest method for avoiding leprosy.

My late father, born in 1932, showered once a week. He "bathed" daily by taking a damp washcloth to his body, paying particular attention to those areas which most often "give offense." He shampooed less frequently. He would head down to the basement and give his his wiry locks a once over with a rubber nozzle attachment in the great soapstone sink. The man never smelled. He was truly the cleanest person I ever knew.

Also, I recall reading something by the late, great Ivan T. Sanderson on the subject of the civilized, Western men in the jungle. He said after a time without bathing, the body produces a natural insect repellent which the soap & water crowd will never know.

All things in moderation.

I’d never get laid if I did that.

Pure nonsense. Try doing this at home! They forgot about Candida albicans, Aspergillus species, just to name a couple—never mind bacteria such as Listeria, Staphylococcus, and that is just the start. This is where stupidity meets “science.” They are really not advocating a no shower livelihood unless I missed something; otherwise people are gullible to the ninth degree. Wait—those are the rat buffoons; sorry, I forgot.

Decades ago, on “That’s Incredible!”, they did a thing about bacteria and microscopic “ bugs” that lived on the body. The host, (John Davidson?), was then shown to jump in the shower to remove them. But wait! Showering and getting clean made more, not less! And these micro-bugs made us healthier. Being filthy made you sicker and one more susceptible to getting seriously ill.

I prefer to bathe daily, using my handmade lye-based soap and using my homemade deodorant that works much better the commercially-made junk that causes rashes and does little to stop odor. Still working on a good homemade shampoo that works well with hard water. The “no ‘poo” thing is nasty...
