Okay, let's get this out of the way. If you are one of those members that likes to argue over everything or throw negative *kitten* out there - hit the back button NOW! This is supposed to be FUN! PLUS, I'm not asking for advice, so don't give me the whole "well you asked for it" BS! :flowerforyou:

Ahem.....now that that has been cleared up..........I've seen many topics on here about women wearing perfume and how "the majority" of people HATE THAT! I, for one, don't mind it too much as long as it's a "clean" scent and not over powering (but opinions on scent and scent strength obviously vary)! :tongue:

So, to the point, there is a guy in my gym that always reeks of protein shake farts (at least that's what I think it smells like) or its just radiating from his sweat (either way, IT BE STINKY). So, I thought to myself (while I was in the corner ripping my sweating socks off and sticky them under my nose - YES, that smelled better than the funkiness in the air), if you HAD to choose between smelling stinky farts while your working out OR women's overpowering perfume...........WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE!

Play nicely, you have to choose ONE! I mean, obviously we all would just choose NO SMELL or a light air freshening frangrance! HAPPY FRIDAY! :bigsmile:

    Perfumes and colognes should never be worn in excess; only wear enough to be smelled in an intimate situation, whether you are leaning in for a kiss or leaning in eavesdrop on what she's reading on the Metro.

    I agree that none of it should be worn in excess! Nothing smells good when you can taste it! :noway:

    I personally don't like perfume. I'm more a body spray kinda gal.

    I get stuck in the elevator about once a week with some dude that has literally bathed in his cologne or aftershave. The first couple of times I just held my breath and prayed I'd get to my floor before I passed out but now if he gets on the elevator I get off at the next floor and wait on another lift.

    scent choices in order of preference:

    1. good-smellling perfume

    2. farts

    3. rotting garbage

    4. the perfume most women wear

    Oh lord, elevator torture is the worst! Especially those that smoke (obviously with their windows UP) and then try to cover it with some gawd awful perfume. I'd personally take the smoke smell over the combination! LOL

    Id rather over powering perfume. Few weeks back I had to switch machines to get away from dome awful bo. All the way down the aisle I could still smell it. Hard to breath well and smell that!

    yeah, the smoke + cologne smell is aweful. i should add that to my list, right below rotting garbage.

    however, i must admit a fondness for the weed + incence + Axe body spray combination some of the art students at college were pulling off. i don't smoke weed, but something about that skunk stench plus the cheap body spray and incence ends up being actually pleasent. i'd prefer the stuffy drawing studio days when they were in there being quiet and stoned, to the days i was in with a bunch of made-up yammering sorostitutes bathed in Britney Spears or Au De *kitten* or Paris Hilton number 69 or whatever it is the college girls are wearing these days....

    Body odor is another yuckity yuck! Can they honestly not smell themselves? I'd personally take protein shake farts over body odor!!! EWWW!

    LOL.......I've haven't had the privilege of smelling said "weed + incence+ Axe body spray" combo!

    And this is why I don't go to a gym. Do I have to choose between an allergy attack and farts?! That's like asking me to choose between marmite and......marmite.

    I actually can't choose. They're both horrible. Also, hilarious topic. :laugh: Thanks, I needed that.

    Pineapple farts are okay my friend! It's the "protein shake" ones that make my nostrils pucker! You're good!! :bigsmile:

    If I had to smell either one, I'd leave and come back later. But, if I was going to be there to smell it enough to leave, I'd rather smell the fart. Perfumes often give me headaches. Farts are just repelling, but never give me a headache.

    sweaty and fresh is sexy

    Smelly and dirty is not

    It's a fine line

    Well, if you want to get technical, whenever you smell something, small particles of whatever you're smelling enter your nasal cavity... Pretty sure I'd rather have someone's perfume in my nose than their poop particles, no matter how overpowering the perfume is.

    Good point about perfumes causing headaches......I mean a nappy fart usually just causes hilarious facial expressions that you try to hide........however, I also tend to hold my breathe which is very counter productive to working out - in fact it's downright dangerous!! :wink:
  • I don't know!! this is so hard I don't like either one!!! have to say maybe the protein farts they go away!!!

    I used to work with a girl that always smelled like a combination of Elizabeth Arden's Sunflowers, smoke, and cat pee. I don't know how she managed that EVERY DAY but it was disgusting. Worst part. She didn't even own a cat.

    Fun fact for the day/this topic: Every day you are breathing in about 1/4 of other people's farts.

    hold on, you weekly get stuck in an elevator with the same person? I think the bigger problem here is why does it always break with him in there? The safer option would be to monitor when he goes in, then let him through, and you go after. Or before him and close the doors fast so he cant get in. OR just take the stairs going up/down to avoid the situatuion in all it's entirety.

    But to answer the question.. I dont think I have ever smelt a protien shake fart to be honest. I may have smelt something simular though. We have this powder to mix into water that is supposed to give you all the vitamins and nutrients and yadda yadda. But later in the afternoon, as I went to the bathroom, (sorry if TMI) it DID smell rather sweet. It was god-awful because it was a sweet scent. It wasnt a protien shake, but it was sweet and foul. Is that the same?


    Last thought: It has been said that death smells sweet and rotten. Anyone can say truth to false on the situation?

    I'd rather smell the worst, strongest perfume than anyone's farts, even if that anyone is a beautiful unicorn whose farts smell like flowers and destiny

    I can't get over the fact that something that came out of your butt is in my lungs

    HAHA! I KNOW! I have no idea how she managed that one! It was terrible. We worked at a law firm, and she always had to do the filing..the filing cabinets were RIGHT BEHIND my desk. I brought a scented candle in to work but it just made matters worse when more scents were in the mix

    I'M DEVESTATED OVER THIS BUTT PARTICLE INFORMATION! Are we sure lung cancer stems mostly from smoking or butt particle breathing? *MUST FIND ONE OF THOSE MASK THINGIES IMMEDIATELY*!

    Any body smell in the gym is 10x worse then normal. All that body heat makes a light perfume over powering (I learned that the hard way when I was suddenly able to smell the scented lotion I put on 10hours earlier) and unnoticeable BO because gag worthy. :sick: I've learned what gym members to avoid working out near.

    You know, now that you mention it, over powering (or as you described "RED DOOR" perfumes....lol) could be considered a type of "weapon of mass destruction"! You are so right about farts slapping you in the face!
