It did cross my mind as I whipped her through an octopus and some splashed across my cheek. Salty

Hmm tastie... almost as nice a thought as seeing a guy not wash his hands after doing his business in the mens room...

I suppose thats a sidestep in this topic still dance related though.

Its interesting that the thing we hate the most seems to be BO.

oh dear

Yet there are still so many stinkers on the dance scene.

can't say I've noticed

Is anyone prepared to admit they go dancing without having a shower or using deodorant?

I shower every morning, and again before going to dancing .. then I'll come home and usually shower again before bed. 2 Showers per day normally.. at least 3 on a dance night.

In fact, I suspect some people do shower before dancing, but don't use deodorant and end up stinking half way through the night. They probably can't smell it on themselves and are completely unaware.

Ah, I have a problem with this one. if I'm showered and i change out of sweaty clothes then I don't tend to use deodorant. Mainly because too much deodorant is as bad/worse (so I've been told) than BO. As my particular condition means that I am unaware of how much is too much, I'd rather go for a more neutral natural scent. Not too BO and not too Perfumed. I hope so at least.. I've instructed my friends to tell me if I pong and ,luckily, they've not had to do so much.

IMHO everybody smells sometime, despite their best intentions.

Of course...there are the total stinkers that have clearly worn the same shirt they wore last week, without washing it...have not showered and do not use deodorant. That's just not on.

I know a few of those.. I shared a flat with one once. talk about the odd couple. I was there for ..oh.. quite a few months and I could count the times he took a bath on the fingers of one hand. His idea of a "clean" was to wipe himself with a damp face cloth. Apparently despite me being very clean, I ponged by association. My clean clothes used to stink just because they were in that flat. of course , I didn't know. And moved out shortly after I was told !

Lol, don't stand next to a fan when dancing. Infact just standing down wind would be great.

A solution to this problem could be using deoderant stick or roll on rather than spray as it tends to be more effective and give off less purfume.

Luckily I don't suffer from BO but I do sweat alot. Go through tonnes of shirts a night. At least people know im putting my all into dancing.

hmm..

I just finished saying I don't smell (I mean personally give off bad odours) I don't trust deodorants because I don't have any clue what they smell like. I'd rather smell like me (albeit a clean me) than a bunch of flowers, or a wet pine forest.

Only STALE sweat smells. I wear wicking clothing and dry off when sweaty. I carry non scented wet wipes and when I change I wipe the scent producing glands around the arm pits etc with these and dry off with my towel.

ergo I do not smell .. I do not cover up one bad smell with another , slightly stronger , slightly more palatable one.

I just think it ironic that my forum name shortens to Beo .. B.O.

tell me.. would you suggest a blind person who perhaps happened to be wearing clashing clothes be asked to dance out of your line of sight? (it's ok to say something offensive if you add a wink to the end apparently )

Im playing with you Beo.

BO isn't a problem for most men but I think sweat is.

Think it's worse when you are dancing with a woman who has BO.

Or those who fart on the dancefloor and walk off. Yes DTS im thinking you.

[Beowulf]

I know.. and you think I'm not


I take no one seriously.. especially myself

So thats you under my desk. There was me hoping it was the receptionist.

He's a bugger for doing that isn't he? The worse thing is...everyone looks round looking for the culprit and DTS is standing there pointing at me with a disgraced look on his face.

I'd go see a doctor about your arse, DTS. There's something not quite right there. Smells like a sick animal has crawled up your hole for a warm place to die....a few months ago.

Thats better than the ping pong ball trick.

[StokeBloke]

Sweat and BO whilst obviously linked are in fact two different things. The BO smell is caused by bacteria that live and grow on the body. Sweat is in fact odourless. BO is caused by poor hygiene (not washing the sweat off thus allowing the bacteria to grow in it).

There are antiperspirants and deodorants. They help stop sweating in the first place, and help kill the bacteria that causes odour respectively. Personally I would rather smell of too much deodorant, than smell of BO.

I can fairly much fart on demand so we could set up the Trouble sisters and blame them for it.
Sara White has experienced one of the best i ever did at her Sunday night class.

It was a fog of war fart, classy (as Caro would say, love you babe).
XXX XXX DTS

I diagree - I'd rather you smelled of hard-danced sweat, then gag on your un-palatable choice of deodorant. Not you in particular , just men in general . At least sweat is natural

[Missy D]

I hate when a sweaty almost melting man puts me into a drop and his sweat falls onto my face - just not nice

Also men that dance close with me that dont have a mobile phone in their pocket This has happened twice with me in dance the most recent was on saturday in Hammersmith
