PSA: i’m not looking for judgement, im looking for honesty and similar experiences. don’t be douche bags, we’re better than that
PSA x2: I shower everyday (sometimes every other) and i spend a MINIMUM of 10 minutes in the shower. i scrub all over, sometimes twice to be sure. and none of the smells i’m about to talk about have ever been bad enough that the general public can smell me. it’s always something i notice, or my girlfriend when we’re cuddling or showering together.
okay guys, this is a weird one so stick with me…
firstly, the belly button topic:
i know this is a thing cause ive talked to other people about it before.
the belly button smell. it’s not very widely talked about, but its a legit thing, the lint in there genuinely had its own form of body odor.
since starting t, which was almost 2 years ago, i’ve grown lots of hair, everywhere. and one spot that gets a lot of it, happens to be my belly button. i clean it all the time, every shower, especially cause i inject in my stomach, which of course is in the vicinity of the belly button.
however the smell is just like, strong. and even after i clean and scrub, it STILL smells. i’ve even tried isopropyl alcohol lol, anyone else experience this?
secondly and lastly, the breast topic:
i admit i could definitely clean my binders more, but with a demanding college schedule and work schedule, on top of having 2 cats and still taking care of myself, ill find myself to slip on the binders every once in a while. i have 4 WIVIV binders, as ive found they work best for my larger breasts. i clean them all at the same time, and use my “break binder” (an extra large one i thrifter from a community center near me) while the good binders dry.
i know it’s time to clean them… when they start to smell like cheese. specially of the parmesan variety.
DONT LAUGH, i know it’s funny as fuck, and also rlly gross, but like time gets away from me.
so my girlfriend and i typically decide its binder cleaning time when we start to smell parmesan cheese and we aren’t eating pasta hahaha.
is this like, something you guys experience too?
also what are everyone’s cleaning schedules for their binders, and how do you keep up with it while having a demanding schedule?
