One of the regular complaints that comes up with women is that men supposedly often have poor hygiene.

But what they associate with poor hygiene has more to do with tidiness than with hygiene. Hair that are not styled, clothes that are not smooth and vibrant, no accessoires to decorate the outer picture and other fancy objects of value. Poor hygiene of males is also very often falsely associated with what is actually caused by natural results of high testosterone levels, such as acne. There is not a single instance where acne would be caused by poor hygiene.

What men primarily face are physical and mental health problems, not hygiene problems. Such as bad food consumption. Not disposing of adrenaline production through sufficient physical activity and more.

Let's talk about women's hygiene.

Since women associate signals like acne and fancy bling with poor hygiene there is a tendency for women to not take care of their hygiene as much once they go down a rabbit hole because the negative feedback that would make them question their bad choices is left out. Add to this the fact that women are sexual deviant and far more sexually active than men and you have a nasty cocktail mix.

Women also have what is called poor emotional hygiene. Even though women are the first ones to go look up a psychotherapist when they feel that they have mental problems, they close off their mind to negative feedback that would allow them to properly take care of their emotions. If you never acknowledge the causes of a problem, then you can also never change them. Women build parts of their identity around being emotional and so the state of being in mental distress becomes a part of their identity rather than a problem worth fixing. This makes them unreceptive to emotional self-improvement. As if that was not enough, psychotherapists will not rarely advise women that self-love is the best way to practice emotional hygiene, thus worseneing the female narcissism even further, amplifying their emotional turmoil.

In conclusion, women ravel in practicing bad hygiene. Men fight the perceived bad image of their hygiene problems more than actual hygiene problems.
