Also, many peasants didn’t even use bath houses they bathed in their home with more effort by heating up basins of water.
But excessive bathing wasn’t really talking about bathing but going to public bath houses to meet and to … other people.
If you read the article/post, it goes on to say that in later centuries, some medical professionals misinformed the public telling them not to bathe with warm water because the ‘pores would open and let too much bacteria etc in.’ I am thankful they eventually reconsidered.
What a great blog series, thanks for the link!
Honestly, it came up on a StumbleUpon alternative I was using.
You care sharing said alternative?
Cloudhiker.net . It works almost the same way. For a free account you can save favorites but you don’t get history saved. So, if you want that histor, you just click on the website at the bottom to open the website outside the UI of cloudhiker which works right in any browser. And the web pages are just like Stumble Upon submissions. Fun, interesting quirky useful any topic. You check off categories just like Stumble Upon. BC quite frankly, the Mix app they replaced stumble Upon with succccckkks!
Ty!
