Personality type needed for sponge bath?

(1/2) > >>

simsfreq:
I am playing the apocalypse challenge, and I have an adult male sim with the following personality:

Neat 9
Outgoing 0
Active 6
Playful 3
Nice 7

He won't sponge bathe autonomously. He moans about stinking and then washes his hands. I don't have any hacks in that interfere with sponge bathing and I don't have the sink that lets you select it as an option. His elder father has this personality:

Neat 9
Outgoing 2
Active 6
Playful 3
Nice 5

And will sponge bathe. His teenage son has both neat and outgoing in the middle and he will too. I only have freestanding sinks (Not kitchen sinks) but the others can manage it so why doesn't he? Is it a personality issue? Or is my sim just being annoying?

jsalemi:
I thought sims had to be more on the sloppy side to do the sponge bath thing.

simsfreq:
I thought they could all do it, I was just wondering whether if they were too neat or shy that they would refuse, or if it was just my game.

gynarchy:
The Prima guide says sponge bath is available to Sims with Sloppy/Neat below 6 and hygiene -50, so you can take that for what it's worth.

Kyna:
Since he's too neat to sponge bathe, try getting the family to groom each other.  A few groom interactions will quickly bring his hygiene up (much faster than hand-washing).  Only teens and older can groom or be groomed.
