Solving Smell Problems with After Shave, Hair Gel, Moisturizer & Deodorant

I live in a log house in the woods. Your shelter of brush and twigs should be OK for a while, unless you feel the need to "occupy" someplace. I should mention that Russia (under Putin) is not rounding up and jailing all that many protesters.

I don't get this. Are you saying I should move to Russia? Why?

Do you have an STD?

According to this article, maybe that's why you smell funny.

You got to wonder about where they found gonorrhea infected men willing to take part in the study though. Skid row alcoholics paid off with a glass of vodka are bound to fail smell contests.

Brrr it's cold in here (I wouldn't equate funny and putrid)

One more totally fascinating fact - a urinary tract infection from coliform bacteria produces a really really vile odor (nothing like the strange food caused odors like asparagus - totally disgusting according to a friend who had one that was antibiotic resistant. she said it was so bad she would almost throw up when she peed)

DO NOT SKIP DEODORANT! PLEEEZE
Bathing with soap and things like that actually destroys the good bacteria on your skin that kills the bad bacteria so you are much more likely to get infections, fungus and so on if you bathe with soap. Yes you use soap when you get dirty but water will get rid of most "dirt" just fine.
.

Can you provide any sources for that claim?

Deodorant works by simply blocking the very disgusting strong smelling fear and stress liquids from getting airborne so it doesn't have to be fragrant and you can buy unscented deodorant.

What the hell are "fear and stress liquids "?

Google it. There are a lot of studies on it. I broke out in all these red welts and my dermatologist told me I was showering too much - to quit using soap except when dirty. I switched to those oatmeal bars and sure enough the red welts went away.

fear and stress liquids are those pheromones that tell your tribe members to get the heck out of there or they'll get eaten. And if you don't use deodorant your first date will get out of there too. Dr. Oz had a great show on about deodorant and how it worked. We also have a biologist in the family and you know how weird they are. Always sharing disgusting information.
