hello and welcome karantso!
which part of the country do you live in and how old are they? LOL
are those people female and still got theirs monthly?
can you imagine yourself going outside and mingling with people without a bath?
i just can't. the discharges gives you the discomfort and undesirable smell. so how much more if you don't take a bath. if you don't wanna stink and be alienated from others due to the bad smell, then you may think again.
i don't think that a lot of people still believe in that considering that we're already in the 21st century. we know better so why care about that old hearsay?
for me, good hygiene is important specially if you're having your period so taking a bath is a good thing to do. people who tell you not to bath won't stink if you won't but you will.
enjoy mylotting.

I don't know about anyone else, but I always bathed more at that time because of the stronger body odors at that time of the month, and so far I think my brain has survived intact.

Nope, that is not true. That is one of the menstruation myths that our grandparents (and maybe parents) told us when we had our first menstruation.
In truth, a girl should take a bath more when they have their menstruation because the blood that comes our from us produces a bad odor. Taking a bath will make us fresh and clean even if we have menstruation.
