This is merely a thread I've started due to an amusing conversation regarding the influence of one's coutry and culture over his personal hygiene. I work directly with people from north america and all of them found weird the fact that we here in Brazil brush our teeth after every meal. When working in the US we get some strange looks from people at the bathroom for brushing out teeth there - something absolutely normal here. This habbit is aparently seen as unusual and weird by our north american colleagues, some of who have claimed to brush their teeth only once a day, or even once a week!

So I was wondering, since this is an international forum filled with people from everywhere, what do you think about it?
