Uh, anon, vaginas aren't supposed to be washed. That disrupts the microbiome and can lead to infections.

It isn't washed with soap, but it is washed with water

Vulvas can be washed with water and unscented, mild soap if tolerated but not vaginas, they are self-cleaning.

I... am fairly sure he means 'unwashed' in the sense of 'impure', aka, 'not a virgin'.

Still awful, but... that's how I read this...?

He could also mean both the more literal and more metaphorical meanings simultaneously.

Not sure.

What other parts aren't meant to be washed? Asking for a friend.

Eyeballs are self-cleaning as well.

Is it bad if someone where to say, hate toilet paper, and wash themselves inside-out almost daily?

Poo is gross, toilet paper just smears it around. I want none of it. So, are there any consequences to washing yourself inside-out?

How far up the chute are we talking?

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 3 weeks ago

Not deep. Like a bit deeper than surface. Just enough to make sure there is nothing icky hanging, and that the soap enters.

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Believe it or not, belly buttons. At most you're only supposed to wash them once per month. Any more than that and you risk an infection due to imbalance in the microbes in there

it could have been his point

[–] andybytes@programming.dev 4 points 3 weeks ago
