Deodorant

[Redsucked02]

To be fair this isn’t really jockstrap related but I’m curious and figured this group would have opinions.

I’m curious how many other guys prefer not to wear deodorant. From the time I was about 18 I’ve worn deodorant almost every day. Over the past few years though I’ve decided that it’s not really necessary on most days. I still wear it if I have to get dressed up or maybe for a family function but prefer to just leave my pits natural.

What’s your normal? Or preference for others?

Used to, but rarely anymore!

last I checked the crystal depdorant still uses aluminum just a different form, supposed to be less absorptive, I dunno. I used to use it myself but switched after I read that.

Ok, I'll ask...what's so bad about the aluminum?

The smell of Old Spice totally takes me back to being a teenager

Yeah, me as well. One of my coaches wore Old Spice. NOT the HOT one — he didn’t wear deodorant - WOOF!

I use it once in a while. I use an aluminum- free natural stick from Dr. Squatch with charcoal, arrowroot and probiotics - bay rum and it smells great.

I bought the charcoal soap and the candle.

1) specific to absorbing antiperspirant aluminum, the crystal is more deodorant, blocking the pores and gland expression long term can't be good, i haven't looked at research on that specifically. I would think it would necessarily diminishes one's pheromone broadcast in any case.
2)Aluminum generally is very strongly associated with alzheimers and dementia increases, cancers, other dysfunctions. I get horrible gut pain if I eat food cooked in aluminum foil anymore, actually went to the ER for xrays after a thanksgiving turkey cooked in aluminum baking tray, to check if it was a kinked bowel (deadly).

It leeches more if there's acidity and heat but it transfers from simple contact. I had to complain to a friend about their very beautiful from-scratch blackberry pie being very visibly dotted with aluminum that had noticeably dripped onto the pie surface where the juice had sputtered onto and steamed the foil after it came out of the oven which is hardly forge melting temp.

It is sadly common in restaurant kitchens and home kitchens everywhere. It's also in most baking powders and a lot of processed baked foods, with is criminally negligent for the FDA and the companies as it's VERY EASILY REPLACED but it's cheap so . If you don't find aluminum free baking powder at the store and can't work amazon you can make a 1 to 1 replacement with 1 part baking soda and 2 parts cream of tartar, with the downside that this particular homemade recipe reacts with liquids and not just in the oven.

Steel, cast iron, enamel, and glass cookware should all be fine but I studiously avoid aluminum and teflon at home. Teflon causes its own bevy of probems, kidney damage comes to mind. Teflon should especially be thrown into recycling with violent prejudice if it's scratched at all.

Fascinating! Thank you! Have avoided Teflon for years...will now also avoid aluminum products that touch food! Evil!

I have used Old Spice Pure Sport since I can remember.

Someone mentioned burying their face in armpit. I just got out of Tractor Supply and Home Depot. Deodorant or not, believe me, I was severely tempted.

I love doing this with a man! I always ask that they don't use deodorant before cumming over to play...I love to lick pits...and watch the guys squirm in ecstasy!

I wear deodorant because I was told you growing up. Or just became something I did daily. Don’t get me wrong a lot of the time I don’t shower, and I don’t put on deodorant when I don’t leave my house for the musk to develop, but when I go out I’d like to smell nice
