It sounds like this guy needs SLAM LOTION! The best sunscreen for manly men that want to suntan like a man!!!
And if you didn’t know…it’s a real thing. I just learned about it today.
This seems like a golden opportunity to fuck with him in subtle ways. How many girls things can you disguise?
It took me until the early 2020s to realize that men even have body washes in the first place.
Keep in mind that I abandoned broadcast TV around 2001 or 2002, so I completely cut all commercials out of my life.
Then when the first adblocker became available for Phoenix (later Firebird, then Firefox) around 2004, I was all over that like white on rice. So since 2004 the only ads I have had to suffer were when I set up a new system whose browsers needed configuring, and later once my browser protections became too strict and I needed a “naked” web browser for user-hostile sites that tied spyware and near-malware into site-critical functionality.
So I have been “out of the advertising loop” for a very long time, and always saw bodywash as a female thing. I quite literally never “got the memo” that body washes came for men.
And I’m not likely to get any, either. And not for any stupidly sexist reasons - after five decades on this rock, I am just habituated on bars of soap. I just don’t like the showering/soaping-up experience without bar soap.
Know what’s really “bitchy?” Being afraid other dudes will think you’re a bitch. Nothing more bitch-like.
Know what’s really “manly?” Fucking other dudes! Getting all that free protein T paste, right from the tap… no soaking up E from a blown out roastie through your dick.
That sounds like it smells great.
Mate I’d use dishwasher soap, what is he worried about?
Holy insecurity batman.
Bro Soap. Manly soap for manly men, no chemicals that will make you gay or turn you into a woman. Comes in wood pine and musky tusk. Real men don’t bathe, but when you must, use Bro Soap. No homo.
Is that like soap
Call him a faget and move on. Gotta be a real bitch to act like nice smelling soap will make you want to put a cock in your ass
How is any of this your responsibility lol
I’ve never understood thr gendering of stuff like this.
Like bro, soap is soap. I rather smell like roses and lavender than a mix of industrial shit and BO.
A good 20% of the appeal in actually dating women is getting to use their forbidden female bath products every once in a while when your 11 in 1 manboy all purpose body scrub, shampoo, conditioner, lubricant, fuel oil, anti seize, weed killer, bug repellent, fire starter, persevative, and paint stripper runs out.
Forgot gunpowder and charcoal. Exfoliates the skin.
As a guy with long hair, I’ve learned to just roll my eyes at the gendering of hair products. The all in one shit is made with the assumption that it’s being used on short hair that’ll be chopped off in a few months max, so it doesn’t need to preserve anything. Long hair has to last years.
Same. To be fair it’s an easy choice for me, why would I want to smell like some nebulous XXXFUEL, SPORTS PISS, or MOUNTAIN JUNK when I could smell like a bakery instead? Apple and cinnamon poo and condish? Yes please. Vanilla leave-in? Give!
I may or may not have found that women hugged me longer and smelled my hair if I used something the smelled good. I also used conditioner with my long hair and had many women running their fingers through it.
It was nice. Short hair is so much easier, though.
That’s all well and fine but do you really choose to abbreviate shampoo as “poo”?
This is fair. It’s a fairly common term in certain circles (which I’ll keep intentionally vague as to let your minds delight and/or reel in horror at the possibilities) so I didn’t give it much thought.
Ha, yes. I just learned this a couple weeks ago and about thirty years too late. My past self couldve looked a lot better.
Im a man but almost exclusively buy “women’s” soap and shampoo. It smells better to me and it’s absolute horse shit that this stuff is gendered in the first place.
Mike Birbiglia has a really funny bit about this. Calling the shampoo, body wash, tooth paste, “sham-paste”. Of course watch his comedy special as my comment won’t do it justice. I think of it everytime I’m in the bath aisle at a store.
I was forced to use my mother’s vanilla smelling Shampoo. I smelled like a woman at work.
Did it make you want to slob a knob?
You guys don’t get it. Those products smell like that to appeal to women. If anyone even notices you smell like a woman, the obvious inference is that you have a girlfriend. Or at least spent the night with a woman. If it’s dilute enough to not really be noticeable, women will just find it appealing. Vanilla in particular is non-gendered, what you smelled like was a cookie!
That is good I suppose. But not in this country.
Tell him to get his own fucking body wash.
‘Nah, you’re right. Looking, sounding, and acting like a bitch is bad enough. You don’t want to completely remove all doubt.’
