if you can't go more than a day or two without showering before your body stinks (in a way that isn't easily solved by a quick wash of armpits/genitals) then that seems a little weird? is your skin ok?

during periods i'm really physically active, i just spot-wash the stinky parts more. but like, my general body does not begin stinking and i'm slowly starting to realize that maybe this is more common with other people?

i lived with someone for a year who was performing a similar experiment - showering a little less than once a week. desk job, little to no exercise, etc
he stank. constantly. he didn't notice it, but i certainly did. are you sure you aren't noseblind to yourself?

My question is why not just take a 1-2 minute shower vs. spot wash given a similar allocation of time

I don't like the sensation of being wet, I'm on the autusm spectrum
Maybe that's the whole reason for the discussion then? For those who don't feel any aversion to water, shower is a 5min routine after which you feel refreshed, not a boring/unpleasant social obligation.

I shower only when/ where I'm dirty (I garden, hand bidet) except if I sweat or overheat: Sweat burns/ gives me rash must rinse shower; unable to internally control body temp so use cold water showers to cool
I don't understand the question at all: could better answer if did
I've listened to you talk + am very surprised to hear : autism, unless I missed ?
