Why do northerners love bathing, but southerners don’t?

I am from Shandong, and the people in the south (south of the Qinling Mountains and Huaihe River line) that I have met don’t take a bath! ! I remember when I went to Qingdao University, two-thirds of the class were from the north, and the other third were from the south. In the first semester, the male students refused to go to school. It turned out that everyone rubbed each other's backs and chatted while taking a shower. The one made by the owner of the family, Li Jiaduan, can not only rub the back and clean it, but also promote the relationship between each other and shorten the distance. Although I don’t understand it very well, I think there should be these reasons. At first, the students from Guangdong refused, saying that they bathe every day and don’t want us in the north to bathe once a week as they are not so dirty. I advised him to give it a try. It felt very good. After rubbing it, it was completely covered with mud. There was more dirt on my body than when I wash it once a week. . .

In short, we save more water. But in fact, if you rub your hands again, dense gray bath mud will appear. For places that are difficult to reach by yourself, like your back, you need help from someone traveling with you. Maybe it's father and son, maybe it's brothers, maybe it's grandfather and grandson, in short, they just rub each other. The south generally has more rain, and the climate is warm and humid all year round. The rainy season does not end in three or five days, and the wet weather can catch up with the total rainy season in the north. Relatively speaking, the climate in the south makes people feel the freshness of the vegetation, as if it is enveloped by a hydrating essence.

Southerners call it taking a shower. Because the climate is humid and hot, you sweat a lot, so you often take a shower all year round. Turn on the water from the faucet, rinse your head first, then your body, and flush out the sweat-smelling water. It is a simple and clean shower. I'm from the south, and I've heard about bath towels 10 years ago. I used them for the first time at the beginning of this year, and I fell in love with them as soon as I used them. After that, I used a bath towel every time I took a shower. It's really very convenient. The wash drops are very clean. Because water is scarce, every household uses water very sparingly. A basin of water is reserved for washing the vegetables and for feeding the animals. A basin of water is used for washing the face and feet, and then the animals are given a drink.
