According to Liza, why are "ladies" cleaner than commoners? Poor people have no reason to bathe. Poor people think that bathing

too much makes you sick. Poor people do not have the luxuries that make bathing pleasant. Proper bathing habits come with education, and poor people can't afford it.

According to Liza, "ladies" are cleaner than commoners because poor people do not have the luxuries that make bathing pleasant.

Liza says: "I tell you, it's easy to clean up here. Hot and cold water on tap, just as much as you like, there is. Woolly towels, there is; and a towel horse so hot, it burns your fingers. Soft brushes to scrub yourself, and a wooden bowl of soap smelling like primroses. Now I know why ladies is so clean. Washing's a treat for them. Wish they saw what it is for the like of me!"

This quote clearly states that, before the bath she was given by Higgins' housekeeper, bathing for her was not such a pleasant activity (probably she bathed with cold water and unscented sopa, if any.)

Write the reason why do people like to procrastinate?​
Rainbow [258]
It’s because we as humans find entertainment in other things, or perhaps in other situations we just don’t want to do the work because it’s tiring.
