      I don’t think you’d every get a skin disease from wearing the same pair of jeans for a long time…

      All that would happen is that the genes become home to various micro-organisms such as bacteria,virus, etc… but they would eventually reach an equilibrium where the amount of these organisms stays stable… and unless some of them are pathogenic (disease causing) you’d happily co-exist for a very long time!

      However they might get a little smelly after a while!
