Is it normal that i skip showers and brushing?

i dont care too much about personal hygiene. is this odd? i shower 4 or 5 times a week and brush my teeth probably 8-11 times a week. i get dirty and shower only when i feel the need to. i dont have BO or bad breath in public but i am slightly gross at home. what do ya think?

    How would you know if you have bad breath or not? Some people become so acquainted to their bad breath and body odour that they think they smell fine.

    I don't see any harm in skipping a day here and there. You're not neglecting your hygiene completely. Just don't go out after skipping.

    As a schizophrenic, it's very easy for me to neglect my personal hygiene which isn't fun.. You sound as if you're keeping up on it fine. Brush your teeth more though.. =] haha

    Cutting down on showers is good for your skin. & hair; just google it. But make sure you are brushing your teeth because tooth decay is very real.,

    Brushing your teeth and showering aren't related. If you don't shower but every few days it won't hurt you a bit. But failing to brush your teeth at least once a day will drastically increase your chances of getting cavities and other tooth and gum decay problems. So I'd suggest daily brushing. As for showering, it's not necessary to shower 4-5 times a week, you could get by with once or twice a week if you wanted to. Personally, I happen to enjoy smelling a bit of natural odor on a gal.
