Original Note:
Showering wasn't much of a thing in the middle ages but people washed daily, bathed weekly, used soap, used products against BO, washed hair, did laundry, etc. They were relatively clean most of the time. They did have plenty of sex. https://fakehistoryhunter.net/2019/09/10/medieval-myths-bingo/ https://www.medievalists.net/2013/04/did-people-in-the-middle-ages-take-baths/ https://www.historyextra.com/period/medieval/did-medieval-people-take-baths-why-they-were-cleaner-than-we-think-middle-ages-hygiene-handwash-washing-cleanliness-coronavirus-plague-covid/ https://going-medieval.com/2019/08/02/i-assure-you-medieval-people-bathed/ https://abbeymedievalfestival.com/2020/07/medieval-bathing-cleanliness-and-godliness/ http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2019/08/did-people-in-medieval-times-really-not-bathe/ https://www.ancient.eu/Medieval_Hygiene/ https://twitter.com/fakehistoryhunt/status/1541408581932679169 https://twitter.com/fakehistoryhunt/status/1649562680183738370 https://twitter.com/fakehistoryhunt/status/1667986844573741057 https://twitter.com/TimONeill007/status/1694816860674609562
