Or do you not wash your feet and legs in the shower?

[rubbishtalker]

Just a simple as it sounds. When I have a shower if I am not washing my hair I wash my armpits, the front of my body and my nether regions. Maybe down each arm and sometimes my neck. Literally never ever ever wash my legs unless I am shaving them. Also my feet never ever get washed. Seriously.

My husband thinks I am totally disgusting. Am I being unreasonable here or does the water dripping down my body do enough for my legs and feet? I think it does.

Nope. Too much risk of slipping, and the water hitting the bottom washes them anyway. If I rolled around in mud all day I'd think fair enough but my feet just do standard boring things like fill shoes.

I'm with your husband on this one!

If I'm not showering that day I'll do a sink wash of pits and bits so you're already cleaner than me!

I do the same as you. To be fair, now I think about it, my feet really should probably get a wash too.

I've started doing it since reading a thread :) but in general no

Eh?

YES!!!! fist pump

I do a bit, but if I stop to think about it I’d find it unnecessary! Probably different for people with smelly feet but that’s not a problem (underarm needs more attention).

Feet? Who washes their feet? I'm about 70/30 on the legs too

I wash everywhere every day. Especially feet as they seem to be the smelliest.

I never used to wash my feet as I assumed they were washed through the shower/bath process but they really aren't. They do need a wash.

I get insanely itchy legs if I wash them so I leave them

I think you need something to get rid of the dead skin and water running down your legs isn't going to do that. Washing in between toes and properly drying is important in order to prevent an infection.

I do same as you OP

I'll sometimes wash my feet - only really in the summer when I've been wearing flip flops and I can see they're a bit manky. But otherwise the soapy water dripping down is enough.

That said in summer if I've been wearing sandals I run water in the sink and wash my feet before bed

Sorry but that sounds awful, I always wash my feet every day, I think the sweatiest part of your feet are under and between your toes on the underside of your foot and I make sure to give that area a good scrub.

I do wash my feet, but then I have stinky gross feet. Don't wash my legs.

I only wash them if I've been running cross country and they're muddy (yes, I do run, so it does happen ). Otherwise, I assume all the suds running down me (plus the occasional shaving) gets them clean.

There's no way I wouldn't wash my legs and feet. I find it odd that someone wouldn't.

I love a bath, but don't get them often enough to miss out washing some bits when I shower.

"Washing in between toes and properly drying is important in order to prevent an infection"
Can't be that important. I've never done that much, and never had a foot or toe infection

By the way I don’t have smelly feet but have lived with people who’s feet stink to high heaven so I wash mine (and under the nails) everyday, wear good quality shoes, have regular pedicures to get rid of dry skin. Just in case..

I was actually in the shower the other day contemplating if I should wash my feet and legs...I didn't.

when I wash my hair the plug gets clogged with hair so much that it creates a little soapy bath for them. that surely counts, right?

Always wash my feet and between my toes with soap daily in the shower-running water over them from the shower doesn't clean them properly.

It's the action of rubbing soap on your feet that cleans them. Soap is a surfactant.
