This thread is getting on the smelly side. :p


But seriously, everyone needs deodorant... the natural smell of not wearing deodorant is not something anyone wants to smell.

Yes. Yes, it will. But only if you apply it while gargling and hula hooping simultaneously.

Please let us know how it works out for you. Good luck :)

Yes deodorant has a special ingredient that will automatically make you 10% hotter (or in some special cases more). In order for its effects to work, you must administer said product to the advised site (or "armpits" in medical terminology) daily. Once used, you will become an instant hottie capable of attracting anyone you desire. The secret ingredient in deodorant is a special pheromone that is used in love potions.It has been unicorn tested and approved. (So wear yours today!!!!) :p
Wow. I had no idea deodorant parts were used in love potions.
So do you think I should start drinking it?


UMMM Not bathing for a week perhaps is not thinking of your sisters well being either. :p
My sisters' well being? You make it sound like my natural scent is causing women some kind of physical pain.
I thought their eyes always watered because they were happy to see me.

yeah...I'm kinda wondering how a guy would feel about the "natural" smell of a lady who hadn't bathed for a week. ;)

you know...that whole "do unto others" gig.
All the girls I know smell like flowers.
I just assumed that was their natural smell.
Are you telling me I've been wrong all this time?

Women have often told me I smell of rich dark chocolate and would like to have just one nibble of me.

There was a body spray commercial by Right Guard that I thought was especially smart and spot on about the misuse of the stuff. A woman who is a solid 25 yards away from the camera says, "Boys, I don't want to smell your body spray from here." And then she closes in fivish yards - "Or here." Another few steps. "Or here." She gets to a few feet away, "I don't even want to smell it from HERE." Then she moves to where she's essentially toe-to-toe with the camera's point of view. "I want to smell you from" *pause to inhale through her nose* "right here."

And when I first saw this commercial, I stood to my feet, and yelled aloud, "YES! THANK YOU!" at the television.

This is not because I want to smell men or their body spray.

See, my band room's main door is in the same hallway as the locker rooms for the gym. And no one showers after P.E. these days. No, they've found a much faster solution. One that requires me to wear a gas mask as I walk through the hall. >_<
Ugh, I hate when men put on so much deodorant or cologne that you feel like you need a breathing mask. My dad has this one, he doesn't wear it too often, but when he does, it smells up the entire house. No lie. My brother used to be worse with the synthetic smell-goods than he is now. After too much, I politely explained to him that I couldn't take the concentration of smell that he chose. And he said he wasn't aware that it was that strong. I guess the wearers get used to themselves.

If I had to choose between a guy that went without deodorant, and a guy that wore too much spray on deodorant or cologne, I'd choose the deodorantless dude. Because at least when it's only body odor, it doesn't fill an entire room, and the stink molecules don't linger in that room for HOURS after the person leaves. Natural body odor may be a bit nasty, but it is less cruel than overwhelming synthetic smells.

When I'm hanging out with someone, I don't want to feel like there's a miniature version of them living inside my nose. I want them outside of my nose. It makes me appreciate people more when they aren't forcing anything on one or more of my senses, lol.

@OP....I don't know what you started this thread for, or what symbolic thing you are comparing "accepting someones stink when they don't bathe" with, but whatever it is, I assure you, it's not the same thing. And it's an inaccurate and unfair thing to compare sense bombardment with.

:p

Ahahaha XD the title really made me laugh, maxwell. No offense XD

Nope, deo won't be the solution. It just adds to some charm (who wants to stick around someone that smells...unpleasant, or even consider hugging them and such? Unless their nose has a defect, but that's quite rare, unless traumatically induced XD).

It's about how a guy takes care of himself. Personal hygiene. Deo would be useless if the guy doesn't get a decent bath everyday (and i mean not just standing in front of hot water. Like really soaping and scrubbing every part, specially the crevices where sweat and dead skin accumulate: armpits, neck, groin, flexure areas, and such) If not cleaned properly, bacteria and even fungus could grow there, causing the unpleasant odor. No amount of deo could rectify that. A clean skin looks and feels and smells great, even without deo :).

Next, build that body. You don't have to be brawny and all muscular, just physically fit. Get to walking and exercising daily. It builds your confidence as you see your body improving, and quite a social exercise too. It brings you outdoors, and you could meet a lot of people as you go along.

Finally, a solid and intimate relationship with GOD. Fill your everyday with prayer and meditation of HIS Word. Feel secure in HIS love and HIS awesome plans for you. If you know you are so dearly loved by GOD, and that you're on your way to becoming the best that you can be 'coz HE is working on you daily, you've just found the ultimate source of confidence and peace you could ever have :) plus HIS light shining through you as you are filled with HIS joy and presence will surely catch the eye of many ladies, specially the woman HE has made for you :D see for yourself! But believe me, the ultimate reward is simply getting deeper with the LORD. Everything else is just a bonus :) I've discovered this just recently, and i am blown away by Papa GOD's love. I hope you find what i have found in HIM.

God bless you with a deeper growing relationship with HIM!!! :D may HE grant you the very desires of your heart!!

I dated a guy once who didn't wear deodorant. I threw up in my mouth every time he put his arm around me.

...there was a girl in Wal-Mart the other day, sitting on the floor in the deodorant aisle, taking all the caps and little plastic protector things off all the deodorant and sniffing them....

So, if you're wanting to date THAT girl, then apparently you have to use deodorant.

The bible teaches we're supposed to be clean on the inside.
It teaches we're to be beautiful on the inside.
It teaches we're to be appealing, and attractive, on the inside.

So do I need deodorant?

Shouldn't I just trust God, and go out into the world with my natural smell?

Shouldn't I just trust God to bring me a girl whose nose doesn't work?

Shouldn't we all?

Shouldn't Christian women learn to appreciate the natural smell of a man who hasn't bathed for a week?

Or...

Will deodorant buy me love?
I Don't think it will buy you love, but It will make an impression on your date. What will buy you love, is God's will, by prayer and belief. As you may know that God is our match maker, if you let him. Deodorant is only a tool to help your body smell nice. and can be even a talking point from your date. She/he may not of smelt that deodorant type. So it can be a talking point. But at the same time, it is making some effort on your first date.

As to your question: will deodorant buy you love? no it won't. it just makes you feel better with yourself that you are clean and tidy for a special occasion, such as a date. but that's if you are serious about going on the date, it just helps you in your effort of the date.

There´s no real connection to LOVE on being cleaned, but the "feromonas" can´t be mingled with a nasty "perfume"...

I have always appreciated a basic "clean" smell. I think it's because that's what my father has always done. He never smelled like old spice or some brand name deodorant, but he smelled VERY mildly of soap and mouthwash. :p I grew up hugging him and being able to smell either a clean scent or none at all.
I wish i could say the same about my teenage brother, though. That boy... That boy needs deodorant.

Strange thing, though, my boyfriend has a naturally sweet body odor. He doesn't wear deodorant and the sweet scent only gets stronger when he sweats. So, Maxwel, perhaps the right lady will love you without deodorant after all.

But please. Don't neglect your regular showers. ;)

What you eat has a big effect on the smells that come out of you. the more fruit you eat...in particular things like bananas and pineapple....the better you'll smell. Skip the meat and eat the fruit, Maxwel. If you can't do that you best be gettin' yerself some deodorant

clearly you have not spent much time in a closed off room with a seriously stinky teenaged boy. i have to do youth group every friday night and there are some major offenders. i wouldn't say it's WORSE than too much of an awful spray but it's at least on par. there is no lesser evil.


obviously i should have done multi-quote....i keep finding more to comment on.....

Regardless of whether or not deodorant will help you find love, Jesus says to love your neighbor. So yeah, 'nuff said.

If you see your local witch, they will have the ingredients you require for said quest. You probably wouldn't want to know what they have to do to it to be drinkable. If it somehow comes back looking like Powerade don't be shocked. :p
