Gonna be honest, women body/hair shampoos smell way better than men shampoo in many cases imo. Nah, I don't wanna smell like BLUE STEEL or REALLY RIPPED ABS. Bruh, nah. Plus all of them smell soo artificial too... Atm I use a vanilla scented hair wash. Idgaf, i like how it smells.

Don't even get me started on axe body sprays/body washes, i still get PTSD flashbacks from my highschool change rooms.

The fact that much of the world has defined masculinity as "rugged, raw, and remorseless rock n' roll" is just wild to me.

Imagine denying yourself the ability to enjoy flowery scents and having emotions just to prove that you have a penis.

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

You don't even need to have emotions while using a scented body wash. You can just go "ah, roses, cool" and get on with it.

There is a legitimate reason to prefer something else. I would also want something that provides freshness in a minty/salty/whatever way. Roses do smell nice, but I would rather have something associated with icy/sporty freshness. But assuming it's feminine just because it smells like flowers... consult renaissance folks.

Sounds like insecurity to me.

[-] Geetnerd@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

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.

It's called "soap", people, and if you want to reduce waste (and save money), you buy it in a bar, not a bottle.

[-] DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago

I am also on team bar soap, but body wash isn't always "soap", it's sometimes a detergent.

Which is another reason why I am on team bar soap.

I use Ivory white bar soap. No antibacterials.

[-] Bojack411@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

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

[-] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

Holy insecurity batman.

[-] donkeyass@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 6 months ago

That sounds like it smells great.

[-] 90s_hacker@reddthat.com 5 points 6 months ago

Bulgarian-rose scented sounds marvellous

'What, you don't think you're manly enough to pull it off?'

[-] mechoman444@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Ehhhh ... I use old spice... Maybe I'm a little insecure.

[-] UnhingedFridge@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

I dunno, they have some pretty good scents. I love the hell out of their "wilderness" deodorant with lavender.

[-] Lesrid@lemm.ee 4 points 6 months ago

Fiji is amazing. Very floral without being too sweet for me

It must be sad having so little manliness that smell could take from it.

Honestly, you're not his parent, he's an adult and needs to start taking care of himself - or GTFO.

[-] Amir@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 months ago

Who the fuck texts like that, I refuse to believe that's a real person , or it's some Shadow the Hedgehog furry

[-] drosophila@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

How hard is it to just say "I don't like that scent"?

[-] Whateley@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

Not wanting to smell like flowers is some bitch shit.

[-] mrodri89@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 months ago

Man hes missing out. Probably smells divine in the shower.

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 6 months ago

This seems like a golden opportunity to fuck with him in subtle ways. How many girls things can you disguise?
