Yeah, I guess that is right up there with not bathing.

 I'm part of the 'lo-wear' community. I'm nudist (but not an exhibitionist). As a result I'd be perfectly happy being nude all the time if it were practical. Does the article say anything about how these rather disgusting sounding people handle that? I couldn't read any more than a paragraph in and started picturing some malnourished, drug addicted, only-bathes-with-flushable-wipes homeless people with lice and skin infections and started to feel sick.

This is nasty! Outer clothes can be worn a few times if they’re still clean and odor free, but to wear jeans for months on end knowing they stink, nay! And it goes with out saying that underwear should be changed daily.
Saving water can be taken to extremes. Its true that wool can be worn several times between washing, but not endlessly. Eddie | ||

As always, be it to pre rinse dishes or not, cold or hot water washing or the frequency of changing clothes, whatever works for some folks very well may not work for everyone.
My grandparents generation used to bath only once a week followed by a daily touch up with a wash cloth. Outer clothes were aired out and brushed out many times before they finally went into the wash. My dad told me when they were kids in the 40`s nearly no one possessed underwear, they just had very long undershirts which they tugged in in a way to serve them as underwear too. Worn for a whole week! It was just considered adequate hygienic measures during the war and no one was bothered by the stench as everyone was used to it. Unthinkable for me but it also puts things into a different perspective somehow. BTW for as long as my memory goes back my dad took a shower every day and changed clothes frequently. | ||

Absolutely not. If people are really that worried, then have a large enough wardrobe of clothes to the point when you will only have a few loads of laundry a month which won’t only save water but wear and tear on the machine and the clothes themselves. That’s what I’ve been doing the past month since I only wash laundry when needed and can squeeze a bit more stuff in my Maytag A806 since I have the load sensor agitator in it.

Very well I think.
They`re getting used to their own stink in no time and won`t notice anymore. The same thing happens if someone never changes their favorite perfume, cologne, laundry scent beads or whatever not noticing the smell anymore hence using more and more until everybody else literally gets knocked out by the smell. | ||

Whether it’s wash, don’t wash, wipe, don’t wipe or never wash and never wipe, I’m keeping distance away from tails and even watch where I stick mine, keep my back straight crouching down as opposed to the bending over and not caring what or who’s behind of others I see…
There just needs to be a conscious movement of such… — Dave | ||

 As much as I find this to be a joke now, I feel like I may one day have to face this reality once electo-mechanical washers, dryers and dishwashers become unobtainable. I refuse to wash clothes in electronic let alone microprocessor based machines. Perhaps these movements aren't spontaneous but inspired by the modern lineup of appliances which are all code and no show. | ||
