What's the deal with women and smells?

[sojourner]

I have one oil burner which only goes on when I have company that's never visited before.....after that they're no longer considered guests and they can smell my stinky bin

I HAD one oil burner, many years ago. A glass one my dad gave to me, with the strict warning that I must never put water on the hot oil. Well DUH

Had it two weeks when I decided in an early-morning post-pill haze to pour water on it when it caught on fire.

Gosh glass, FIRE, spitty fire and oil EVERYWHERE!!!

God dammit, WOMEN, will you PLEASE stop being one homogenous mass of identical behaviours! Gargh!

I nearly puked on someone this morning who had vanilla perfume on. She smelled like a cake - it was vile.

I've been known to start retching at busstops when downwind of some local laydees who must fucking BATHE in charlie

 

[pogofish]

That's so romantic

Even more so when you have to give-up because of a perfume-indiced coughing/choking fit!

The new guy beside me at work seems to put on more aftershave every time he goes to the bog. I may have to have words.

Or goes off on one about some "strange" smell that turns out to be something quite normal?

I think that's hormonal. When I was pregnant everything smelt really odd. When I'm pre menstrual I have a really heightened sense of smell and things like fag smoke make me wretch.

You're such a charmer

But it was silly. It smelt like something you'd market to small girls as "My First Perfume" and basically make it smell of sugar.

I don't have a prob with perfume but don't put it on whilst on public transport and try to wear one that reflects your age is the way to go I reckon.

Maybe that says more about the women you mix with than women in general.

Maybe 'we' have little choice. Have you ever tried to buy an unperfumed roll on deodourant for a woman.

Given the number of times I've had to get quickly out of the way of some stink or other, no. Lots of women seem determined to outsmell everything.

Yes, I have - frequently. Its just about as bad for men too & the women's brands are sometimes the only alternative. Many of them actually have scents too!

Do they still make that?

I used to have to share a phone with a co-worker many years ago, and would come away from work fucking REEKING of aramis *retches*

Used to go mad at him - 'wipe the fucking phone after you've used it'

 

[sojourner]

Do they still make that?

No idea

I just used it as a generic term for all kinds of cheap perfume liberally applied

Maybe you should move to cornwall - we all just smell of goat piss and hay

Or is that just me?

 

[Pieface]

hay

*weeps*

Why thank ya ma'am


I loathe all perfume btw. Not just the cheap crap

Made Annie stop wearing whatever it was she wore, much to her disgust

I'd rather change parters than stop wearing perfume

I like to think I'm slightly more engaging company than the stench of manmade scent

Mmm - hay!

What is it with females and all their fragrances? Or them trying to hide "bad" smells. Its like they are obsessed with it. They're always trying to cover up what they consider bad smells with what they consider good smells. WTF?!

DC posting earlier, possibly...

 

[sojourner]

errrrrr

Haven't you any goat piss to roll in?

 

[sojourner]

I'm allergic to perfume.

I was TRYING not be too filthy so I used neutral-ish language. OK then here is the filthy version 'when I'm drinking from the furry cup I don't want it to taste like I'm licking the waste outlet from a chemical plant' so there.
