[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work for a international company and have to do trade shows all over the world and HOLY SHIT, the body odor at some of these shows-especially France and Germany is overwhelming (dont' get me started on India, Malaysia, Dubai, and Cairo....that is just a whole other level of odor, that I'd like to just forget).  I feel like the Europeans are clean (unlike the above other areas), but their BO, it is just like they don't use deodorant. The business suits and the lack of A/C, the smell can bring tears to my eyes.

For me, I do shower in the morning, I normally have sex with my DH and don't exactly want to go into the office smelling "ripe".  In the summer, I usually shower and rinse off before bed. Don't most people? I thought that was the norm? Seems from the responses it is.

So WHY do Americans shower twice a day?[/quote]

AMEN![/quote]

I'm a teacher and working at camp this summer.  One of our floaters is from Nepal.  She is very sweet, pretty, and wears clean clothes but she smells very strongly of B.O. and curry or some type of strong spice.  We were on a field trip to Wolf Trap last Wednesday and on a bus with no A/C.  Between the heat and her odor (she sat right in front of me), I felt nauseated. [/quote]

News flash: even if she showered 5 times a day she'd still stink. It's the food she eats. [/quote]

Yes, I realize that.    :roll:   I feel bad but I really try to avoid her.  I wonder what the kids think?  She hasn't been assigned to my group yet, thank goodness. [/quote]

Pp here and I feel for you. I thought you were using this as a reason for morning showers which is why I pointed out it wouldn't help. I work with a lot of East Indians and depending on which part of the country they're from (which influences their cuisine) they can stink real bad. [/quote]
