We have to brush our teeth twice a day or they rot, shower or we smell like shit, wash our face or we get blackheads etc.
In: Biology
– Teeth, well you can live without brushing your teeth. It will take a long time before they rot, you might lose a couple, but you will be pretty fine for most of your life just like an animal. That’s ugly and people don’t like that, but in the past it wasn’t a big deal, people were used to it. And animal don’t care about that. It become more of a problem in the modern day because we eat a LOT of sugar, something that human in the past and animal just never did. We also extended our life quit a bit. It wasn’t a big deal to lose a lot of teeth in the past, because most people would die before that happen enough to make eating an issue, but today we life far longer.
– Animal wash themselves too. They turn in sand or go into the water and that’s enough to remove the worst, enough to keep them healthly. Sometime they smell bad, but they don’t really care. Bad smell is annoying to us because we live for decades staying away from all of it. But some people work with corpse, garbage, etc and they get used to it. And usually wild animal don’t smell as bad as that.
– Backheads don’t get you killed. Again we developped enough hygiene that having them is viewed negatively, but animal don’t care. Especially when most of them are fur on top of it.
TLDR : Human have high standard that animal don’t care about. Human could easily life that way too, we just have the mean to have better hygiene and we got used to that standard.
