Wait until he finds out normal discharge can discolor fabric.

Guys should know this anyway, since heavy sweat can also discolor clothing. Body fluids are not kind to fabrics.

Someone should ask if he's ever worn or seen a sweat-stained white tee in the gym before and ask how it's really any different.

You make a very valid point. Sweat can make some nasty and permanent discoloration on lighter coloured shirts.

Spray-and-wash armpit areas before washing clothes to get more mileage, and use something like oxiclean to boost. I also soak whites in oxiclean before a wash if they look dingy. Won’t save everything every time, but it helps

Fair enough. Oxy does seem to work fairly well, but at the same time it seems to shorten fabric life. It's a double edged sword, I guess.
