Well, growing up, we were really poor when we lived in Ukraine, so we didn't have a shower in our house or a bath. We would go to "bathhouse" about 1/2 mile away from our home once a week, but we would wash ourselves head to toe daily with the water in the sink and soap and all the important spots were always clean. We were the exception though, majority of Ukrainians weren't that poor.

Some people just need to imagine not having the amenities that we have now. We are lucky.

I still think about my childhood when I take my showers every other day and daily baths.

Dealbreaker. I hate myself sometimes for letting go for nearly a week (it's rare though), so I can't date someone who is dirty consistently...

As for the concept of a bath...how does one take a bath? Can't remember any instances when I've taken a bath before; only showers

Step one: Fill the the tub with hot water (or depending on the preference), I like it hot. If you like bubbles, pour the liquid into the tub first.
Step two: Get into the tub with your entire body, so the water touches your chin.
Step three: Take a sponge and start washing yourself with it.
Step four: You can rinse yourself after taking bath if you had been soaking in it for too long.

LOL.

Bathing needs to happen often.

Unfortunately, this makes for any fantasy of going back in time unrealistic. Everyone must have smelled bad all the time.

Yeah, I bet those hot medieval soldiers stunk like crazy.

If one only bathes, it should happen every day.

That was pretty much my first thought too. Wouldn't be me in there, I can tolerate a lot of things but horrible hygiene/people with the stinkies is not one of them.
