Bathing

I think the fact that people used to not take a bath for months at a time is pretty nasty. It may not have been to them though because it was what they are used to and we are used to taking baths daily. It is something that may seem repulsive to us and it is. But is it really out of the norm if it was the norm of that time. that is the real question because is something really bad if it is deemed acceptable by the rest of a society. So maybe those people were just doing what they had always done and they only knew so much about it.
