Not only they don’t take showers, they also don’t bathe. That’s why perfume was even created— to mask the bad smell. And people used to throw their poop and pee out the window and on the streets. Like they washed maybe thrice in their lives (I’m basing myself mainly off Europe, some states in the world too hygiene really seriously for centuries)? Even less so in cold states. In Canada for example they would wear the same exact full body underclothes during all winter (like 6 months of the year) with a small pocket to poop, pee, and have sex. That wasn’t even during Middle Ages, just like three centuries ago oof.
I know right, pretty cray z
Idk if ya'll remember but they don't take showers they bathe, and from whats given and known they don't really scrub either soo....... they're both musty in their own ways.
