"Wouldja like to take a survey?"

[asterroc]

It's been a recurring discussion in my household, so I figured since I'm procrastinating, it's about time to get others' opinions.

[Poll #1131954]

Edit: To clarify, Person A contends they don't need to shower all that often, and therefore are inherently unstinky. On the other hand, Person B contends that since they shower daily, that they are always perpetually unstinky b/c of being recently cleaned.

I commented in my "Um" response, but my real answer is that I don't think either person is stinkier, as long as A actually does shower when/before s/he gets stinky.

Or if either person just has some odd genetic quirk that makes them glandularly stinky.

Well, a lot of the stink comes from bacteria that live off your sweat, as opposed to being a scent that your own body emits. That said, people do emit some smell themselves, and certain people's sweat can be more appealing to the bacteria.

That's me. :-P Everyone else seems to think I'm extraordinarily stinky. It's a time saver for me though, I see no reason to be wasting my time (not to mention water and so on) if I don't need a shower.

Ditto! There are so many more interesting things to do than obsessively shower every day.
