No...I'm saying the 'You must wear a fresh pair of clothes every day or you smell, because I said so!' attitude is snobbish :D

I use deodarant, I shower every day. Apparently because I wear the same pair of jeans or a hoodie for more than one day, that means I smell? Pffft, whatever.

You will note my remark was a t-shirt based one. That doesn't make me a posh snob, it makes me not want to come in contact with those that smell. Have you ever been on an airplane and encountered someone with bad body odor? There's no escape.

Body odour isn't caused by sweat itself, its caused by the waste products of bacteria multiplying IN the sweat. This happens in your clothes as well as on your body. If you wash your body daily of course it won't smell - but your clothes will if you don't also wash them. What's the point of putting smelly clothes on a clean body?

It's not because I say so, its because it smells!

I might wear a skirt or pair of jeans a couple days running, but never a t shirt. I'm too paranoid about the smell.

Both of those little insights into your world explain much.

Why would you only shower once a week? It doesn't make sense. Is there water rationing where you live, too???

It's intresting to see how this thread has evolved...
Going back to a slightly earlier point, I too wear the same shirt and trousers two days in a row, I just don't see the problem with it.

Its rarely the wearer who does notice the problem.

I think denim fits better the longer you wear it actually. Except maybe skinny jeans.
