I just don't get it. I've been playing games my entire life and I've never had this problem. Why is this such a prevalent issue?
You don't even need to shower every single day (it's not good for your skin) unless you're a naturally sweaty person or do stuff that makes you sweat or get dirty, so it's not even a matter of needing to shower daily, this is just lacking basic hygiene. But damn man if I'm going out to a con I'mma make sure I'm fresh every day.
Yep
A lot of these guys don't even know how to do laundry because it's woman's work
And you better believe a lot of these guys refuse to wash themselves properly because it's gay
This was me, not because I was worried about doing women’s work, but because my mom was so insistent on doing certain things for me that I stopped trying to learn until I moved out for the first time. It’s embarrassing to be a grown man and not know how to do laundry because of some random sexist bullshit you were submitted to. I thought for a long time that I was just ungrateful for my mom doing my laundry for me. But now I’m a parent and no, I was fully justified in being pissed. I had genuine interest in learning to clean and in being clean and my parents refused to teach me. That’s bullshit, especially when it was sexist on top of it.
You expect me to touch a man's body? 🤔🤔🤔
LMAO
Fellas is it gay to be clean? 💀
have you considered some of them are just lazy and/or don't give a fuck about what others think about them?
Also to be fair theres at least some who have executive functioning issues (me) but thats not the majority of guys at these things lol.
As a fellow autistic I understand but also my tism compels me to be clean because I have sensory issues otherwise, I hate hate hate being dirty/having cluttered space/etc
idc of it's bad for my skin a warm shower is my one respite at the start of every monotonous shitty day
I have to take a hot shower every day or I feel greasy
And not in a fun way
that too. and my hair always starts smelling really bad at the end of the day, not that anybody is sniffing my hair or anything but the smell of hair is gross to me
Same. Unless I'm camping, I have to shower every night before bed or I feel gross and greasy. I don't get how people go weeks without it.
