I haven't showered in like 6 days

A small point here ... The whole baths-for-relaxation-NOT-clean thing is my personal opinion. I'm not gonna sit here and harp at people for taking baths rather than showers. Though, it is damn adorable when my daughter's in her bath. Then again, I am biased and think that she's the cutest thing out there, seconded only by baby sugar gliders!

Last time I had a bath I enjoyed it greatly but I had to have a shower afterwards to wash all the sweat off.

Re: armpits, someone just asked me about this and it looks like the ladies I've been with have been 50:50 with un-shaved legs/armpits versus not. Most recent lady offered to shave, I think my response was along the lines of 'I don't really care, whatever makes you happy in your body, maybe we can try it later and see our reactions'. Societal pressure on women to shave reinforces that women's bodies are imperfect and need fixing which is something I in no way wish to contribute to.

So, has taking charge of your life and re-locating to a positive productive environment improved your happiness and feelings of self-worth to the point where you feel comfortable being pretty, OR are you just being influenced by all the pretty hipsters in Vancouver?

So I used to be on that "baths are not for getting clean" thing but I actually took a bath today because I have sore muscles and just generally feel shitty and I thought about it, but that "floating in yr own filth" thing is some bullshit. Like, I'm gonna assume y'all know how soap works, so as long as you are cleaning yrself with soap then the dirt is gonna bond to the soap and stay bonded, it's not gonna end up back on you. It's exactly the same principle as how yr clothes get clean and stay clean in a laundry machine, they're basically taking a bath and floating around in the same water as well. I think I'll be taking more baths from now on, baths rock (although they are kind of a waste of water)
calenlass:
Yeah, I feel like maybe that would help my hamstrings, but my hangup is that I go to have a bath and then remember how long it's been since I actually properly cleaned the tub. :/
