Here in the Philippines, people really want to take a bath everyday, twice a day because sometimes, it's humid and hot. But in some countries, i dont think they taking a bath everyday, specially if the weather was so cold and has snow..

Even here in Canada where its cold for 7 months of the year, we still bathe every day. And we use antiperspirant aswell, since smelling bad is almost illegal here. Its definitely not socially accepted to look or smell dirty.

Yes, I have to take a bath everyday because in Singapore, it is often humid and warm, and since I have to go out everday and travelling from place to place, I perspire and get all sticky and hot. If I don't shower, I don't think I will be able to sleep in peace. The only times I do not bathe is when I am really sick.

I live in Malaysia and I think here is as humid and hot as your country, Philippines. So people here normally take bath once or twice daily. When I visited China during winter I did take warm water shower daily but I was told that people there took bath weekly or monthly during winter season.

I am also in the Philippines and Yes I do take a bath everyday. You feel so stinky if you won't and you feel that you don't smell good evnethough you place a lot of perfume already. Even if I am so late, I will still take a bath coz here in our country, it's so hot and if you don't take a bath.. well, good luck to your smell!! hehehe:)

I still take a bath even I'm in a cold country. I think its a matter of personal hygiene.

I shower three - fours times a day when the weather is muggy. I'm in Singapore and the weather is usually hot and humid. There are days when the weather is cool and less humid and I need only to shower once a day. When I was staying in the South Bay Area, California, I showered once a day even though the wind is cool and the nights are cold. It is hygienic to clean up at least once a day.

During cold winter, when it is too cold , i take bath only on alternate days. BUt during summer, when it is hot and humid, i take bath once in a day. During cold winter, i take bath with hot water, but in summer, i love to take bath with cold water.

It is the same in my country as well and i take bath twice a day. Added to the climatic conditions, here it is really difficult for us to survive with so much pollution in air. If you happen to go out then you would most probably end up bathing again even if you have been outside for just a while. Such is ths situation which irritates us a lot.

I am in Kansas ans most of the people I know bathe daily. I prefer showers myself. I hate going more than two days without showering. I shower off daily even when I go camping.

I dont take baths often. Showers more than baths. I usually do that every other day or so. During summer and hot weather in California (dont know about the new area!) I might take more baths or showers cold ones! :)) But for now its still cold a lot (actually warm today!).

I live in India. here the climate is hot. I usually take bath twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. Sometimes i take bath thrice a day. It matters. But some of my friends don't take bath for 4-5 days . they just apply gel on their hairs and come to the college. I really don't like these guys.But they r my friends so i have to manage buddy.

I love taking baths, especially soaking in jacuzzies. Here in Malaysia is hot and humid, it definitely a must to take a bath twice a day.

I have a bath every night and a shower every morning, basically because its all just part of my routine, sometimes i have a shower just because its cold, or i have a bath after doing rigorous amounts of exercise, just to keep the muscles warm.
