Grek,

I assure you that, despite the normal sanitary habits of Ascendants such as yourself, the rest of the sector does not ascribe to such barbaric practices. Perhaps, if you lot didn't need to legislate every microsecond of a sun cycle, you'd understand the necessity of cleanliness and its benefits to your general well-being.

My husband scrubs daily. He keeps himself smelling fresh and clean, so that when his scent mingles with that of the blood and viscera of your defenders, their clogged bowels won't overpower that sweet spring aroma I do so adore when I lay my head next to his.

I do keep finding tree branches stuck to his shoulders, though. I propose new legislation: the daily "Get The Sticks OUT of Our Asses, and Mail Them Back To Song (for a profit)" initiative. I won't even request royalties.
