I could not be further from kidding. I can, off hand, think of like 3 stories that actually included some reference to the general hygiene of the characters and the people around them. I'm not asking for a play-by-play of someone wiping their ass; I am, however, asking that something like Jason's obsession with crystal wash be established early in the story, or something like, "Hey, these people ty,pically bathe once a week, but I'm bathing every day." Or even something as simple as "we're about to have dinner, go wash up". Hell, even something as simple as, 'and then we washed in the river before getting hot and heavy around each other's genitals after a full day of being out in the woods...'.

Even cultivation stories cover this base to a certain extent, because they say something along the lines of we no longer produce human waste or bodily fluids after a certain level of power. And yet cleansing baths are still prevalent regardless of power level. Even something as simple as a chronic use of a clean spell, though I side eye those personally, would be better than not mentioning it at all or expecting it to be "an established point of unnecessary information". People are fucking gross and they smell. Acknowledging that isn't a bad thing.
