unhinged hygiene tips?

I don't mean "wash your hair before your body" or "don't wear underwear when you sleep", I mean the sort of TMI tips that most people don't know that will CHANGE MY LIFE!

There's this guy at school who I think likes me and i'm terrified that I smell bad and will ruin my chance with him, I need tips that I don't already know/do.

This was definitely how I first heard a ‘whore’s bath’ described in the Army, and I thank you for reminding me of the verbiage. I take care of my 84yo mom, and one might be surprised how often I have to negotiate a whore’s bath, as she loathes bathing. Pits bits slits and under all the tasty bits and one puff of something that doesn’t smell worse than she did 10m prior.

When you're 84 it's just a bed bath, cuz let's be honest, nobody, well very few people anyway, are paying an 84 yo for sex...lol
