Is it really horrible if a person doesn't shower more than once a week?

Because everyone is Self - Concious, and Insecure.

I guess the question of whether it's "horrible" depends on whether we're asking you, or asking the people who are forced to be around you. I'm glad you don't work where I do. It's true that every society has its own standards about hygiene, and in some cultures, people would think nothing of the inevitable stench you would have if you refused to shower until people complained. But if you're in a society where people are used to being cleaner, believe me, everyone will notice and be offended by the smell, and it sounds like people do. If they notice it enough that they keep telling you about it, then it must be REALLY bad, because most people feel embarrassed for a stinky person, and are very reluctant to bring up what they see as a delicate issue. At one level, it's a courtesy issue. Because you are around your own "aroma" all the time, your awareness of this smell is pretty deadened, so you have no idea how literally sickening it can be for other people to be around. I've been around "anti-bathers" who could be smelled from several feet away. The room would still smell bad as much as an hour after they left, if they had just stopped by. If they were in the room all the time, the smell would get into the carpet and upholstery so that it always stank. I get that you don't want to shower, but you are NOT entitled to stink up the world that other people have to live in. At one level, that's just plain selfish of you. Being unwilling to conform to your society's standards of hygiene, whatever those standards may be, especially to the extent you describe (fighting "tooth and nail" even when you worked up a sweat by exercising every day???? People having to pour soap on your head to make you shower more than once a MONTH????), is unlikely to be just a personal preference. It's a symptom of mental illness. I mean that very seriously. Get some help, kid!

You can try using Baby Wipes or Bath Wipes to give yourself a sponge bath when you don't shower. Baking Soda can be used as a de-greaser for your hair.
