Is it true in the general sense women like men that stink a little bit because it gives a strong sense of masculinity in a man?

Question

Do you as a woman like men that smell musty and stink a bit?

NO!

I do not want a man to "stink". Most women DON'T want a man to "stink"! I personally am tolerant or understanding of a man being "stinky" under certain circumstances or situations out of his control. A few examples:

He had a sport event he participated in
He was doing strenuous physical work
Sprayed by a skunk
Was stranded and face strenuous physical challenges
His line of work such as Garbage pickup, a fish man, a mechanic
A medical condition
Etc

I will not be tolerant of "stink" if a man plain out REFUSES to:

Bathe (with soap!)
Brush his teeth
Wash his hair
Wear deodorant
Put on clean clothes
Tend to his feet
Tend to any medical condition
Wear cologne (forgiveable only if he does all of the previously listed)

Now what I believe you may actually be referring to is the scientific fact of women being responsive to a mans pheromones. Pheromones are not exactly a "STINK". They are a SCENT we are able to detect. Pheromones can be detected in our:

Breath/saliva
Urine
Ejaculation
Genitalia
Breast milk
Tears
Within certain sweat glands

For a woman to detect a man's pheromones a man does not need to make himself "STINK". Pheromones are released naturally based on our emotions. Such as:

Love
Fear
Pain
Anxiety
Sadness
Sexual Arousal

To attract women by your pheromones you just have to be yourself and embrace and express your emotions! 😉

I think so. My lady likes to wear my hoodies because they smell like me, haha, she says she’s attracted to my pheromones. I like a small shot of cologne, and she likes it too, but I’ve also been like “oh, sorry, I just got home from the gym, I probably stink” if she’s hugging on me, and she’s like “nooooo, I love the way you smell.” Pretty sure if she caught me right after hockey though, she wouldn’t be able to hack it, lmao

They don’t like a guy who stinks because that’s a sign of bad hygiene, and that’s always unattractive. They are attracted however to a man’s natural scent/pheromones if they’re genetically compatible, but this smell is covered up by cologne, which is why some women say they prefer a man not to wear it.

I've never heard of that, but I haven't heard of a lot of things.

Doesn't a masculine cologne do the same?
