weird question for you. when i shower i only use soap on the parts that get stinky, such as armpits, belly button, crotch, butt, and feet. i use shampoo and conditioner and facial cleanser as normal, but i just dont feel the need to use soap everywhere. i dont stink or anything, so is this weird?

Yes, sweat glands are everywhere, you need to clean your entire body.
Just pay special attention to the goodies

Well it is hard for me to think something is wierd because of all the things i have been exposed to... but yes it is different. You should use soap everywhere because you sweat all over, even if you do not feel it. You also have bacteria all over you. Have u ever heard of a staff infection? It can usulaly be treated with medicine, but sometimes require surgery. Not using soap is a good way to get it. USE SOAP EVERYWHERE!

It's not weird, but part of the reason for showering is to remove some of the dead skin cells that form on EVERY part of your body. If you feel that soap is too harsh on your arms, use a moisturizing body wash, but do soap everywhere and put on cream just after you dry off for the best effect.

Nope, not weird at all, lots of people do what you do. Personally I wash my whole body with soap only every three or so days in the winter, and like every day in the hot sticky summer months. It's a good idea to exfoliate your skin with a washcloth or bodybrush once in a while.

Nope...I do the same thing. I don't think you should strip away too many of your skin's natural oils. So, unless I've been working in the yard or something really messy, i usually don't use soap on my forearms or legs.

I'm sure that the soap runs down your body and is forced into other places by the water anyway. No, you're not weird.

Have you ever watched Seinfeld? This is like an episode of Seinfeld- like you're skipping steps... I think you'll live, but you may want to invest in a back brush.

ur like the french, or Italian...? not sure, but some cultures don't wash their entire body... sometimes I do that, but only when I'm running late. it doesn't hurt to clean everything... weirdo! just kidding, it's fine, but I encourage you to wash more thoroughly every once in a while .... =)

Are you trying to save soap?

It's not weird but try to use an anti-bacterial every where then use a body wash for scent after.

You're not weird, thats just right. Too much soap in other areas will kill off the useful bacteria.
