A wife has been called "totally disgusting" by her husband for never washing her feet in the shower.

Mumsnet user rubbishtalker took to the parenting forum on the matter to see what others thought on the matter.

She wrote: “When I have a shower if I am not washing my hair I wash my armpits, the front of my body and my nether regions.

“Maybe down each arm and sometimes my neck. Literally never ever, ever wash my legs unless I am shaving them.

“Also my feet never ever get washed. Seriously.

“My husband thinks I am totally disgusting.

“Am I being unreasonable here or does the water dripping down my body do enough for my legs and feet? I think it does.”

Many agreed with her that there was nothing wrong with not washing the body parts - but others were horrified.

One user said: “Too much risk of slipping, and the water hitting the bottom washes them anyway.

“If I rolled around in mud all day I'd think fair enough but my feet just do standard boring things like fill shoes.”

Another said: "I'm with you. The soapy water running off the rest of my body does my feet and legs on the way down.

"If my legs are muddy from football I'll wash them but not otherwise."

And another added: "Only wash feet if they have actual dirt on them, so in summer when I've been wearing flipflops.

"Never ever wash my legs, why would I? Both feet and legs have hot water and soap/shampoo running iver them in the shower from the washing of hair/pits/bits.

"I don't smell, I promise."

But others disagreed, with one woman declaring: "You lot are absolutely vile."

Another said: “There's no way I wouldn't wash my legs and feet. I find it odd that someone wouldn't.”

And another added: "I always wash my feet. I go to the gym and run and I think they need it."
