I was reading a comment in a whole other thread and it was basically complaining about men lacking in hygiene and how hygiene is attractive and it was ended with 'Our bar for you is incredibly low'

They said 'I can't believe how many times I have had to say " I'm not sucking that filthy thing. Go shower more than once a week"'

How are the guys this person is engaging with sexually getting all the way up to that point without showering more than once a week? How does that even work?

There have also been posts on reddit (to be fair, take reddit stories with a shovel of salt) from girls who complain about their boyfriends not wiping their arse? What in God's fuck is that? How is a dude making it all the way to boyfriend status having never wiped his arse? First thing, what is wrong with the boyfriend? Second, what is wrong with the girlfriend? How does he get all the way up to boyfriend status with that glaring issue never being addressed?

Why do people bring up hygiene so much exactly? I'm pretty hygeinic (shower everyday, brush teeth, mouth wash, deodorant, body spray, trim beard weekly). I'll be damned if any woman has ever noticied or been attracted to me because of that

Also if the bar is so low then why do many totally normal guys still struggle with getting intimacy? Surely if the bar was low it would be the opposite?

I'm sure there are several men here alone who can attest that the bar is not low, so why do women say it is? Also don't women themselves set the bar? Why do they set it so low?

Maybe I just shouldn't pay attentiont to dumb internet catchphrases so much, but still where did this come from?
