Most guys shower after working out. It's a good habit. If you cannot do it right away, do it as soon as you get home. Put those work out clothes in the laundry or do the laundry yourself. Adding a little baby powder (or men's talc) to the shorts and jock strap helps too. At my work out place, we guys keep a little container of talc in our locker and use it just in case we dont shower right away.

yeah yeah it is. you could get some fungus if you let sweat stay on you too long. On my wrestling team it is a requirement to shower after practice becuase if you don't you can get some ringworm or stuff like that. i'm not sure if itching has anything to do with sweat but i'm sure that showering could help. try some vaseline.

I used to do the same, but now my wife boots me off the couch until I have a shower.

Apart from ruining the couch and cussions, it's not really unhealthy to let the sweat dry.
