Needs an undershirt

[Anonymous]

DH needs to wear undershirts, in my opinion. It is hot outside, and even when we are in the house, you can see the sweat on his shirt when he gets hot. (The AC is set at a regular temp, and he will adjust it if he remembers to). He doens't seem to care about the noticeable sweat, but I do. Can I mention something? He does not want to wear undershirts, so maybe I just have to deal.

Look up Thompson Tees. They are expensive, but they will hide even the worst underarm sweat.

If he doesn't want to wear undershirts, he is really not going to want to wear expensive ones. Id get some basic Hanes crew ones and see if he will wear those first before I spent money on expensive ones

OP here. Agree. Honestly, I think it's an issue of being unaware of how it looks, apathetic to it, and disinterested in undershirts. But - it really looks unappealing to have a grown man with sweat spots all over his shirt when hanging out inside! When we go outside, of course it's 100x worse - all over his back, ribs, and underarms.

Turn up AC, close the shades, etc. Keep the house colder so he is not sweating in house. Avoid t shirts and no sweat marks

He's your husband? And you're not sure if you can suggest he wear T-shirts? What other sort of things do you feel like you can't say to him? This is fascinating.

Perhaps I should have commented a little more thoughtfully, but those tees do work. I wear them only at work. A cheaper t-shirt would certainly do, but I can tell you from personal experience they will not hide anything if his is really that bad. Regular t-shirts will just prolong it not showing.

don’t you sweat even more with two shirts? Why be hotter?

I guess you fall into the camp of “it is better to look good than to feel good”

If he has hyperhydrosis, all the undershirts and low ac in the world won’t help. He should see a dermatologist to help manage the excessive sweating. It must be uncomfortable and embarrassing for him.
If he won’t go to the doctor, Lume products are very helpful for excessive sweating. They have wipes, creams and sticks. He might find one of those to be an easy solution.

OP here. I wish it were embarassing. He literally doesn't care. It is just me that cares, so it might just be something I have to deal with.

I feel like most men out and about have sweat spots. I only find it gross in an air conditioned office environment. Otherwise men sweat, it's fine!

It's common to sweat in the summer OP, unless your house thermostat is set for 68 degrees or something.

Why is having sweat stains at home a problem? Is he on video, streaming? If not, no problem. If he is, then wear undershirts when on camera or socializing with guests.

He is entitled to sweat on his clothes in his own house.
