So I have balls and yeah they're the first thing on my body to start to smell. I can skip a shower if I'm in a hurry and I don't smell much. That's with working a job that's usually physical. I was a punk kid fucking punk girls when I was younger and we didn't bathe every day. I didn't notice much smell then.

Now I see these ads regularly that are like hey women you stink after 12 hrs 5/10. What's up?

I meant to write soap, not shampoo, my bad.

Probably has to do with the temperature where you live though... It's different in colder climates, which is apparently most of the world if that's really the coldest time of year. I'd suggest to try showering with just water once in a while. It should remove most of the sweat and odor, without attacking you skin.

Yeah I think when most people say they shower every day, they don't mean they are literally washing everywhere with soap. I shower every day (yes it's hot here too) but shampoo hair maybe twice a week, soap on my whole body usually only once a month or so and usually because I want to exfoliate. Most showers I am very selective in what actually gets washed.
