    I wouldn't recommend it TBH, I mean if nothing else, scrub the harder to reach areas in the bath, like your back and let the water run down them, every day, it's the least you could do.

    If you've got some medical condition that makes you allergic to water or something, then showering once a week may be enough or even too much, but I think that's extremely rare and I'll assume you don't have it.

    Just have really quick showers everyday and use soap.

    You don't have to wash your hair everyday though, especially if it's long, you can go every few days for that or maybe once a week.

    Ultimately, it's your own choice, just understand that people may not want to be around you if they find out.

    It changes for person to person
    If you’re sportive
    working in a dirty place
    have a body which is smelling
    Etc.
    It is less.
    Otherway it is normal

    Like wash your hair once a week? Or shower as a whole? Washing your hair I understand (if it's just water), but you definitely need to shower at least 3x a week.

    You could but you'd be a bit smelly after about the 3rd day. and, with you being a girl, it's not the BEST idea in the world!! I had a trans-sexual friend that told me shortly after her operation that going from M to F is going from a low-maintenance body to a high-maintenance body! Besides, you need to keep your cute little friend down there clean because having open plumbing makes you more susceptible to unwanted things!! Infections, fungai, disease, and, sadly, rapists. You should try to at LEAST keep HER happy and clean as a whistle! TOOT! TOOOOT!! :-)

    If I did that no one would sit by my side.

    I did the mistake once to run to arrive on time to a third date and it was a hot day. I ended up sweating. Even though I had had a shower prior to going there, I still smelled a bit due to the heat. Her face said everything during the date. As expected, got a LJBF. Even though she did something similar arriving sweaty due to having gone by bike the first date. I guess it's better it happened. I would have had a hard time with someone that gets mad at natural body reactions.

    The Marine Corps recommends bathing every day and set the interval at 7 days maximum. Of course that's not always realistic while in the field. For civilians, you're pushing things at 7 days, but it won't kill you.

    There's no delicate way to say this (I'm sorry ladies): unwashed men develop what I call the locker room odor, while unwashed women have a smell which is... well, harsher.

    No. Especially in summers. You should at least bath 3 times a week to keep your skin healthy. Also bathing keeps you mentally healthy. Bathing improves your gut health. And washes away bad bacteria from your skin that cause odour, acnes, rashes etc.
    Pls bath no matter how lazy you feel

    For health reasons you may want to do it more often. also depends if you sweat a lot. Woman because of their glans can get a way with it more. I would at least hit the groin once a day with a wash cloth for sanitary reasons.

    I'd say once a week isn't okay every other day or every 3 days is fine depending on what you have done in that day. Not washing for that long could lead to bacterial infections and unpleasant odors.

    It depends in many factors:
    Do you play sport?
    Do you live in a hot weather country?
    Do you use water to clean yourself after going to the bathroom?

    In general 2-3 times per week is fine

    Not in this hot weather it isn't. I need 2 or 3 showers a day in the summer heat. Other times I take one in the morning to wake up and one when I get home from work.

    If you want to, but doing it that often may cause you to lose protective layers of skin. You might want to do it once every four weeks instead.
