I went through a phase of only showering once a week when I was in college, because I just didn't have the time. I do shower more in the summer. It's better for my hair, which I've dyed a lot, not to wash it all the time.
I showered the morning after my c-sections in the hospital; I've showered before when the electricity was out and there was no hot water. The only time I'll skip a day is when I'm outside camping.
He was all over me! I mean kissing my neck and trying to kiss me.
No, he didnt mean it sarcastically, at all.
he was all "omg, you smell so wonderful and look so beautiful i so wanna make out with you right now" but we couldnt much cause we were in his workplace, but he was all over me.
I have lived in Europe a lot over the years and most people do not use deoderants or bathe as often as Americans will. Sometimes the smell is overbearing but most times it a very sweet body smell that to be honest is more arousing and attractive then any spray perfume has ever caused for me.
see? this is more of less it. great post
why is most people here reacting with disgust? have you read my posts? i actually did smell good, i washed the parts of my body that could smell daily, i wore deodorant and perfume and got complemented about my smell. It wasnt disgusting at all. And people suggesting me to shower? like i said, this was an exception, i usually shower daily and i already showered two times betweeen sunday and today.
I was just stating that with my "experiment" i checked that sometimes the natural smell is even better than soap and perfume.
and in those i of course wore perfume, deodorant and washed myself.
I think you answered that yourself, arificial scents hide alot, you were masking the odor. Plus you took what essentially are sponge baths. Look I have been to the metropolitan cities of Sao Paulo, Delhi, Shanghi, Paris, Cairo...the list goes on. Standards of bathing vary from culture to culture. That's not stereotype, it's fact. Most cultures are amused that Americans bath so often, and the tolerance for body odor varies. Most people adapt. If you don't take a bath in a relatively warm environment, you start to have body odor. It's also a health and hygeine issue.
Now, before the age of modern plubming people had this issue as well - no baths or mediocre baths, dirty clothes. Yes people managed....within an average life span of about 45 years.
And what's with this word "wonderful"?
I showered last monday and then.....today, sunday morning.
Anyways, the weirdest thing is that i was smelling wonderful
do you think this is doable?
Maybe ill start showering less
what do u think?
Quite funny that this topic is still going strong at 7 pages. That's what I think...
