After a conversation about smelly dancers last night. I thought i'd start a poll.
If you had a body odour problem, who would you prefer to tell you?

A Look awful in a outfit you are planning to wear
B Have a bad body odour

darling Taz
I knew there was something I meant to tell you

But you may get upset with a friend. Whereas with someone else there's no worry of it spoiling your relationship.

I voted I wouldn't want to be told at all

Because I wouldn't want to smell

I try and tell all my taxi class beginners about body and breath odour, and always take spare t shirts towels and deoderant - just so i can wash and change

Breath - well in my no smoking attempts Imy breath must smell of mints by now with the number of packets i throw down my neck every hour of the day

**Cruella** · 27th-March-2006, 07:19 PM

No one wants to smell but unfortunately it happens. The person more often than not doesn't realise it's them.

**Piglet** · 27th-March-2006, 11:48 PM

Definitely would want my friend to tell me. We made a pact about this - just in case! Think I'd be more hurt if I was told by someone else and my friend hadn't the guts. I've always got some sort of wet wipes and a towel and often a change of top anyway, so it would be great to be given a nudge if it were ever needed. (God forbid though - if I think about it!) Best just to be clean, clean, clean - well showered/bathed and deodorised!

And stop wearing jumpers! (That's to a couple of men who seem to love wearing them up here). Okay its cold outside - it is Aberdeen after all, but take the jumper off in the venue. It's not pleasant once the odour gets a hold!

Where's the option for 'I'm a man who didn't want to jeopardise his lift home'?

Angel · 28th-March-2006, 10:52 AM

And where is the option 'if ever i smell i hope anyone would tell me'
It's very difficult to pluck up the courage to tell someone you don't know that they smell, i have said to a few guys before about it and they thanked me and changed their t-shirt some others have got very cross with me. I just hope if i ever smell someone would tell me, must say i'm very consious about it and go out of my way not to.

Are you trying to tell me something Rob??

**robd** · 28th-March-2006, 12:33 PM

It's OK - I like egg & salad cream

You had egg too!! I was concerned about the after effects on you but luckily there weren't any.

Depend on the individual. Quite frankly, I'd prefer to be told by someone I know and can trust so therefore I wouldn't feel offended. If I was told by someone I don't know then I would. Like Taz Devil said, that's what friends are for. There is nothing wrong with being honest and it's only because you care for them. Why would that spoil a relationship?

Yeah!

Everyone's different though but personally I wouldn't lash out at them.

Would that be a damp sheep odour?
