Why is there a surge of deodorant products mostly advertised to women in the US? (self.asklemmy)

So I have balls and yeah they're the first thing on my body to start to smell. I can skip a shower if I'm in a hurry and I don't smell much. That's with working a job that's usually physical. I was a punk kid fucking punk girls when I was younger and we didn't bathe every day. I didn't notice much smell then.

Now I see these ads regularly that are like hey women you stink after 12 hrs 5/10. What's up?

I'm 40 years old and my balls are quite long. Different body bacteria maybe? I shower after I shit so it's got nothing to do with wiping.

I shower after I shit

Like, a bidet? Or a full-blown no-clothes shower?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Yeah…tell us. Do you take your clothes off? Describe it. Like, slow. In a whisper.

[–] MutilationWave 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I uh... slip my pants down and uhh.

Nah I am very regular and it's rare for me not to take a FULLY NAKED FULL BODY shower shortly after I shit.

Nice.

^That ^was ^all ^I ^needed.

Well “regular” is relative. And you don’t sound regular. You sound very ir -regular. In that it’s normal for you to shower after you shit. (Jk I knew what you meant).

Why don’t you get a bidet? You’d save so much water.

Research 😏

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, measure how long your balls are and share

[–] victorz 1 points 7 months ago

Depends, in all honesty. Temperature and how late I am into exercise e.g. Anywhere from 3-7 cm maybe?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

That must be weird at work, or do you leave and come back?

[–] MutilationWave 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If I have to shit at work I must be sick. I haven't shit at work in years. I shit once a day in the morning. I eat a lot of fiber.

[–] victorz 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Wow. I'm envious. I shit like three-four times a day (morning after waking up, possibly after breakfast, after lunch, after dinner). And I don't eat a lot of fiber. 😭 At least it's a proper texture, otherwise my asshole would be in trouble.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

that's not normal. go see a doctor

[–] victorz 1 points 7 months ago

What could be wrong? I feel fine. Poo comes out perfectly normal consistency. 🤷‍♂️

[–] victorz -2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

😂 bro, didn't even think about that. They probably don't, eh.

Edit: I meant they probably don't poo at work. Not that they don't work.
