When Love Meets Body Odor – My Husband’s Shocking Hygiene Habits

I never thought I’d be fighting over shower frequency in my marriage, but here we are. My husband believes once a week is plenty, while I’m begging for at least three.

At first, I didn’t notice. With our opposite work schedules, I assumed he showered when I wasn’t around. But when I started working from home, the truth became clear – his idea of personal hygiene involved a weekly rinse and daily face washing.

Things came to a head during my pregnancy. Between hormonal sensitivity and concerns about germs around our newborn, I finally spoke up. He agreed to shower more often… or so I thought. Turns out, he was just wiping himself down with alcohol! His explanation? “I don’t want to wash off my manliness.”

Now I’m left wondering – is it unreasonable to expect my partner to shower more than once a week, especially when he works a physically demanding job?
