How tf you smelling like garbage after 24 hours? If you got sweaty that’s one thing but one day doesn’t turn ya sedentary ass into actual trash

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 20 points 3 days ago

Depends on the person, and the season. In the winter I can go a few days without showering before I start stinking, but that’s a dicier proposition in the summer.

It's entirely dependent on the person. Me and my brother will stink strongly of onions after 1 day regardless of activity we just produce moisture and grease at a ridiculous rate, I think this is due to the fact we sweat generally more like if I do a workout I'm drenched afterwards. I have to shower every day my stink is so bad I can smell it on myself and it sometimes accrues in the same day depending on how much activity I get. My brother literally leave stink trails after not showering for 48 hours.

My bf in the other hand can shower once every moon phase and produces basically no odour ever. Pretty certain it's genetic there is no general rule for it.

There's not much point stating your own personal experience like it's universal. Like congrats you're not afflicted with stinking like shit and having near unlimited head grease?

I run hotter than most people and also work in a warehouse so I'm pretty much always at least a little sweaty any time outside of later autumn or winter. If I don't shower regularly I smell like ass.

I shower 2-3 times a day. For 2 mins each

[–] mrfugu@hexbear.net 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

2 min?? do you have alopecia?

[–] CocteauChameleons@hexbear.net 5 points 3 days ago

Ah, its more like 5 mins the session I wash my hair. I do it 3 times a week.

I also just like...dont smell much when I sweat. I havent worn deodorant of any kind since I was like 15 and decided I was too punk. It's not a combination of nose blindness and people being polite, ive worked in kitchens since Bush was in office, a hot place full of rude assholes usually. Other people got told they stink, I never did. I think it depends on what you're sweatin' BO is produced by bacteria chomping on your sweat, its bacteria poop. A chemistry major i was dating wanted to get get a bacterial sample to produce my stank. I kinda smell like when spring rolls are frying and weed.
