Pits!

[The_Lady_Snow]

Like out door leather events where gay, queer leather pit, sweat, cigar, hair, sex, all combine into this almost high like scent that protrudes all ones senses.. It's a hot fetish and I can't ever ever reach that tantric space via straight bio male scent it's nowhere near the same...

<~ it makes my cock hard they (straight guys don't).

Interestin huh?

LOL....You are ALWAYS interesting!

Pheromones work for insects but not for mammals because

quote:

In dealing with mammals, however, scientists faced an entirely different problem. Compared to insects, whose behavior is stereotyped and highly predictable, mammals are independent, ornery, complex creatures. Their behavior varies greatly, and its meaning is not always clear.

I love that my fiance shaves her underarms!
I haven't shaved mine in about four decades,
but there isn't much there.
Lady Snow, maybe it's because gay guys
understand how to use cologne?
Which brings me to a pet peeve, I really do
not appreciate smelly pits. I think it is anti social,
and a red flag that someone may have (I'm sorry
to say) mental problems. I don't want to offend
people with BO or mental problems, but that's
just my take on it.

No, Leathermen for the most part don't wear scents it's just pit smell.. Good ol' sweat, hair, leather nothing to hinder the natural scent..

I don't really know how to respond the body odor equates mental problems I really don't..

I trim everything every couple months, the only thing I shave is my face.

A partner can do as she pleases with her body hair, though there are times I will be granted the pleasures of her natural smells, everywhere.

o222Good. I quoted you because I do take offense to your "unintended offense". Here's why. I am a hard working dog. Sometimes no amount of deodorant, cologne, or lysol for that matter is going to curb the stink I can work up. On that day, I stink because, I stink that day. Has nothing to do with the fact that I may have suddenly developed a mental illness through out the day. And, on the flip side, I have experience (daily) with folks that truly are mentally ill. None of them stink like BO. Does BO automatically equal mentally ill? Absolutely frickin not.

I mentioned above that sometimes I like a smelly partner pit. That doesn't make me mentally ill either.

Yanno I thought of this for a long long time, and I have to add that some people may have something wrong with their body chemistry I know I have a friend who has this and I really can't remember the name and sometimes she has to shower 3 times a day because she gets an unusual body odor and there was nothing mentally wrong with her. It's like when someone has halitosis they can't help what is going on in their mouth and it's not like they don't have good dental hygiene it's just their body chemicals that are all cattywompus.


"As explained by R. Kenneth Landow, an associate professor in UCLA's Department of Medicine and Dermatology, body odor is a common symptom of diabetes, gastrointestinal ailments and the now rarely seen typhoid fever. Hormonal fluctuations and other metabolic changes, such as high glucose readings in a diabetic, cause cause unusual if not always unpleasant scents to permeate from the skin."

Thank you for posting that Snow. I'm going to pay attention to if I'm more likely to have a smell day during hormonefuckery. Doesn't happen often but, it happens.

My Niece is 6 and obsessed with armpits and feet. She is a pretty funny kid, really bright and more than a bit precocious. She somehow works smelly arm pits, or stinky feet into most conversations be you friend or foe and then.... laughs at her own jokes! Did I mention we were related???

This wasn't what I was talking about. I'm not talking about kink, or after a hard day of physical work. I will share a real situation. I worked for years with someone, successful, brilliant, even famous for a while professionally, but he never wore deodorant. This was not a physical job, it was like an office and he stunk in a God Awful way. If you had to stand next to him and have a conversation, you would gag. Now, I mean really, what is up with that? What the F^^^ is up with that? He wasn't allergic, he just chose not to wear deodorant. I definitely think there was something mentally off with him.

I know that most butches have expectations for how a femme is supposed to look-said most<.

I have waxed my legs for 30 years. Never shave them. As time has gone by, hair now minimal and does not feel stubbly. Do it monthly and I am fine with that.

Underarms. Painful to wax. They drive me crazy after I shave them, itches like crazy-not sexy to scratch armpits. Once in a blue moon, I suck it up and shave anyway. I don't have much hair under my arms to begin with.

I have OCD traits so you can imagine the care with which I practice good hygiene. I pretty much always smell like a sweet flower, lol.

Nether region-well and very neatly trimmed, don't shave there, see armpit issue.

If a butch doesn't like my little bit of hair under my arms, oh well.

Re: butches, don't care if they have hair, no hair-just do not have BO please. I understand some people have a medical condition but this is rare. Some people just do not bathe regularly or use deodorant. I have nearly gagged in an elevator before and had to hold my breath for 6-floors, not fun.

I know you weren't talking about physical work and/or pleasure in your previous post. I used that as part of my examples in pointing out your generalized sweeping statements equating people with BO to the mentally ill. One does not automatically mean the other.

I would be really surprised if there is someone on this site that has not had a similar experience as you talk about here, a co worker, a classmate, someone on a plane....etc, that has stunk, or just plain stinks. One thing that sticks out clear as a bell for me in your post here is, "he just chose not to wear deodorant." That was his choice. I don't know one person in my life that had the choice to be mentally ill or not. I know it's rare but, not everyone gets a choice to stink or not. A lot of people in this world chose not to wear deodorant for one reason or another. Again, it's a choice, not a mental illness.

It offends me that you think he's mentally ill because of BO. Maybe he's just rude or insensitive. Maybe he gathers pleasure from annoying people around him. Maybe he just doesn't give a crap that you think he stinks. Non of those things equal mental illness.

I think all the 24/7 good smelling people in this world should thank their lucky stars they didn't live pre deodorant. I can't imagine how miserable they would have been.

I'm taking myself out of this discussion on the thread. I'm sure it's not what the OP had in mind. Feel free to PM me if this topic needs to go further. I'm not able to be online everyday, it might take one or two to get back to you.

Google it.
All I said was that it's a red flag that
someone may be having difficulty.

But back to hair.

I was a young hippie in the late 60s and the more
hair, the better! I still can appreciate a lot of hair,
for example, Bears are cool!
Yet, I do really like it that my partner shaves her
underarms. I think it's one of those differences
between us that defines us...

[Dreams]

ok since I (i myself.i know way TMI) have very little hair on my body due to my race and or culture..it would be hard for me to state or demand a preference if my partner is comfortable with how they feel about themselves..i have been with women who have plenty of body hair shaved or unshaved.. i'm cool with it

[starryeyes]

When I was 15-18, I never shaved my pits. I had dreadlocks, made all my own clothes, bathed in patchouli, and did hippie things. It fit me during that time, but now NO WAY, haha. Most people can't believe I have such a granola past. I am still a hippie at heart though... with a Gucci bag. LMAO!

:-D

In 7th grade, a girl sat behind me in my advisory class. She had extremely strong BO. She also wore deodorant - she even carried it with her in her bag to re-apply it several times a day. She looked mean. She had one of those faces I think that looks frowny when at rest. Her earlobes both were torn where earrings used to be. She was one of the nicest people in school - a very gentle, sweet person. I sat next to her all year and I've never forgotten her. I moved away that summer, so I never saw her again. I don't know why she had such strong BO, but it wasn't because she didn't wear deodorant and it wasn't because she didn't take showers and it wasn't because her clothes weren't washed. I think some people are just more endowed with scent glands than others or something.

I grew up in Austin, so a relative amount of hippie odor is just air to me. I'd love to smell the austin air again.
