plus i remember learning that it flushes out the good bacteria from the vag too, and that ain't good.
Not sure if that's true, but it would make sense. It's similar to how you shouldn't use antibacterial soap because that kills both the good and bad bacteria on your hands. The vagina is self-cleaning, hence the clear or whitish discharge girls get every day; no need to douche.
It amazes me how well human bodies can regulate themselves.
