Probably because it’s a long, tedious, repetitive task. Brushing teeth only take a minute or two, maybe three if you’re getting really thorough, whereas flossing thoroughly or consistently adds much more time to that. At least that’s my excuse
The little pick things you can buy are a game-changer if you’re struggling to make it a regular thing. Probably shit for the environment, but they make it easier to get into flossing regularly. Especially if you struggle with the normal flossing wire stuff at all.
Okay this is a GENUINE question: Why. Don’t. We. Floss.
I know I’m supposed to, I see the memes, I hear the dentist and dental hygienists advice. I want to, I mean to. Why don’t I??? Why!

buy floss picks. I floss daily and it takes all of 30 seconds.
This is not my experience at all. It takes me at least three minutes to brush properly, but I can floss in under a minute.
My teeth are really dense. can’t floss.
