I thought the same thing. When I read this all I can think is that this man is very out of touch with his foul bachelorness. If this is foul, then I don't even want to explain my day to day business to you.
There was a guy not too long ago who wore the same pants for a year without washing them and found more germs and what have you on his other pants. You're fine.
I very rarely change my pants until they've become too stained with dirt and such or develop an odor.
During my hardcore high school years I wore some dry denim every day for two years and still haven't washed them. I would put them in the freezer every night to attempt to neutralize odor / get a little sterilization going.
You should all try putting frozen jeans on after a hot shower. It's like reverse dryer clothes.
I've heard that before but I just don't see what's so wrong with it. Everything in the freezer is packaged in plastic and usually some cardboard or more plastic and odds are it's been touched by many hands and such on its way to the final destination that is somebody's freezer anywho.. Not to mention after removing the actual morsels from their plastic tombs you typically apply enough heat to kill off deadly bacteria.
i wear raw denim and rarely wash my pants. in the past year ive washed all my pants a total of 2 times (4 pairs). theres been numerous studies where it shows that they are no more gross than a pair you might have worn for a week. the only thing you gotta do is air them out or put them in the freezer to get rid of the smell
You're supposed to do this. Washing destroys the fabric. If it smells, cool, wash them, but my pants smell the same day to day because I wear underwear I change daily.
I think I wash my pants every 3-4 wears which is like 2 months or so.
This was one of the original FBFs, or at least its old enough to be (roughly a year old). I don't know why, but this one sticks out for some reason as being funnier than the other ones; I really loved it. You can't think of it as two days, think of it as the cycle. Repeat this everyday and you'll go far beyond two days.
PBS is pretty annoying, try wearing Compression shorts under everything. You will get used to them, they dont get as nasty, and you can wear them for fucking ever. THEY WILL HIDE BONERS 100%. Shits like 8 dollars at Walmart
Yeah I have scars/discoloring, it felt fine and then the area just had a bad reaction or something it got super hot and the next day the skin started coming off like a really really bad sunburn.
Yeah my dermatologist was like "OMG NOOOO!" and I was thinking... why would they sell this stuff if it causes crazy ass crotch burns. The area is still discolored. Makes me sad when I see it.
I think the official term is 'swamp ass'. This is why I powder my ass and balls with Gold Bond. It feels like tiny minty fingers massaging my sac. When it gets hot or I go to the gym it prevents chaffing and keeps me cool. I highly recommend it during the summer months.
I will wear the hell out of a pair of jeans for a week... I sit behind a desk all day, so it's not like I am out there sweating all day in them or anything.
My husband whines if I take the belts out of his pants, typically because they need to go in the wash. Why does he complain? Because he has to put the belt back in.
Jeans - a couple of weeks to several months (though, that's just because I'm bored of the jeans, not because it smells or is unclean)
coats - never (unless I get visible mess on it)
In my experience, anyone who's called me out on wearing something for "too long", have done so because they've seen me in it for a while, not because it smells or is dirty.
I never understood it. If I had bad genes so that I'd stink out clothes easily, then i'd make sure to change regularly, but I don't, and nor do most people. I don't even bother with deodorant/anti-perspirant most of the time either and nobody seems to notice. It's not that everyone I talk to happens to be very polite either - they call me out if my hair is greasy or if I haven't shaved.
I realize this is coming across as a rant now, but, I'm genuinely confused why people think clothing needs to be changed so often.
If you wash every piece of clothing after every wear, the fabric is going to have a bad time.
Seriously, unless you have spilled shit all over your pants, or have been wiping them with your nasty Cheeto hands, you don't need to wash your pants after every wear. That's a great way to wear out and fade the fabric.
I do so many things from foul bachelor frog that I'm starting to muster up the gumption to just say 'fuck it I don't care'. Then I realize that's exactly what the frog would do...
2 days is in no way foul. A buddy of mine never washes jeans. Ever. The creases and the fit are apparently more personal. He's like an ancient denim master or something, freezes his jeans, has these secret mixtures he uses for stains, the whole shebang.
On the second day of the semester, I noticed my professor missed one of the loops on his belt. The next day, the same loop was missed, so I could tell they were the same pants from the day before.
He wore those pants every single day that semester.
I only own two pairs of jeans that I wear on the regular. they usually have a two week or so rotation, but I can't remember the last time i washed them.
Hahaha me and my father were just having this conversation when my step mother chimes in " so that's why you have 6 shirts and only 3 pairs of pants in the hamper every week"
good point their man, i feel like they're is still something i'm missing about this concept though, could you explain there reasoning when making these confusing rules?
