Women, lets have a talk... a really "personal" talk

Howdy folks,

I wanted to offer a brief explanation for the locking of this thread.

The forum guidelines include this item:

15. Divisive Topics Are Better Suited For Groups, Not the Main Forums

Divisive topics, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion. We reserve the right to move any topic to a relevant public Group which interested members may join if they wish to continue to participate.

If you would like to review the forum guidelines, please visit the following link:

HA!

I have never been close enough to a womans vagina to smell the odor. So my dear need to worry about yourself.

And that includes my "experimenting" phase.

Wow.

This thread was not even ON my MFP Bingo card.

Cinderella story comes outta nowhere to win it all, you gotta love that.

1) maybe those women don't give a **** what men like
2) it's a gym. maybe it's sweat you're smelling.

Perfectdiamonds1

Well da** what gym do you do to? ROFL. I have yet to see any naked women in the locker room where I attend. Everything you are speaking of is crazy. Where do you go? :laugh:

My advice...
1) Women just because summer is over does not mean its time to grow your own fur coat. Shave, cover it up, i don't really care just keep it hidden.

People can groom their body hair however they want. What you think is attractive is not attractive to others. If it bothers you, look at the ground until you reach your locker.

2) Okay this is simple. Feet... take care of them crusty, unkept feet... is gross. Spend 30 bucks, get that s*** professionally taken care of... then buy yourself a foot scrubber, nail polish, and some skin clippers and keep your feet looking decent. Men don't like f**ked up feet, period.

I don't care for my feet for men but I do agree to keep them clean. It is basic hygiene.

3) Okay, if I have to pick one topic that drives me nuts, it's this. Please wash yourself. There is nothing more unappealing than vag odor. There is no shame in using feminine washes, that's what they are made for. PH balanced and all. Just because girls buy feminine wash doesn't tell the world that your having issues... and for on the go, try feminine wipes. I promise that buying a bottle of soap is a lot less embarrassing than having "that" odor following you all day. Not that I go looking for these things, but some women are so bad I can't even think about using the restroom after you. And intimacy? Forget about it, that is sure to kill the mood and possibly the relationship. And as a side note,,,just because your legs are closed... doesn't mean we can't smell it. Just saying.

1) Feminine washes are not good. Your vagina is basically "self-cleaning." Feminine washes mess up the PH of your vagina and that can actually lead to infections and irritation. If you want to clean your vulva (if you don't know, your vagina is the opening that your menstrual blood comes out of, you give birth out of, etc. Your vulva is the whole area - labia, *kitten*, vagina, etc.), soap and water on a washcloth will do the trick. Everyone should use soap and water to clean their body on a regular basis.

ETA - A good point people are making - it is a GYM. You go there to sweat. You are going to smell things you might not want to sell. Work out outside or at your own home if it bothers you too much.

You cant smell another womens vag unless your close enough, so sorry to say ...might need to take your own advice and go buy some wash!

Oh btw

No need to be embarassed

DebbieLyn63

Wow, I think perhaps someone spent too much time on the heavy weights today!

stacyhall79

OMG gross! I am happy this isn't a problem at my gym! I'm a nurse so I am used to all kinds of smells, but when I am not in the hospital...I don't want to continue to smell...anything...lol

AHAHAHA

farfoorah

My vagina smells of strawberries but tastes of vinegar

ktillotson14

It's really not your place to judge. I'm meticulous when it comes to personal hygiene but I'm not going to post about those that aren't.

phatycake

EEK! Personally, I've never had that much time in the locker room eyeing other people's bodies and what not. Seriously, YOU may have some issues if you're taking surveillance of the room. Just sayin..

jkestens63

Wow, I'm so glad that there are women like you that are the epitome of femininity and style to set us slackers straight.

1. I don't have $30 to get my feet "done" whatever the heck that means. If I have extra $30 its going towards the kids, or fixing the car or maybe date night for me and hubby. As long as my feet are clean, nails trimmed - then they are cool.

2. YOU cannot tell me that NO man likes funky feet... my husband could care less if my toenails are painted or not. As long as we're working well through life together and we still rock each other's world, pink toenails really aren't going to have an impact.

OH and I have bad scars on my legs (which I'm sure you would find grosss. I can't shave, the skin is too thin and I can't risk cuts leading to another 3 year infection. So
before you pronounce that hairy women are gross... there may be significant reason why someone doesn't shave.

3. As for odor, get up out of other women's business. And by the way, when women actually workout and work hard, we tend to sweat and that means a bit of stench.... all over. But then I'm sure you're one of those who comes in with perfect hair and makeup, walk the treadmill on low speed for 20 min, then goes and tells her girlfriends that she "works out" everyday.

Douche is such an appropriate word here.

for real

Jess207

I worked with a woman who stunk...like the woman's gym locker room! Using the ONE bathroom after her was terrible. For Christmas, someone anonymously gave her FDS spray! I don't believe the people who say they've never smelled a dirty woman...come on. And I personally do wonder about intimacy with them...what man can stand that??? Or woman, not that there's anything wrong with that

SoDamnHungry

Is leg hair really that offensive? Crusty feet and bad odors, yes. Hairy legs that aren't omitting a smell or shedding anywhere aren't a big deal.
