If you’re going to get close to someone, physically or emotionally, at some point their personal hygiene will come into play. Does he brush his teeth on a regular basis? Does he shower as often as human beings should? Or is he like Zac Efron, who would rather not shower after a very sweaty game of basketball? Gross.<\/p>\n
While sweating (because it’s natural) isn’t exactly a no-no, not showering after this aforementioned sweat can be the kiss of death in a relationship. Guys, just think about how you smell everywhere after such an activity. Shower, dudes, shower!<\/p>\n
We asked women how they feel about men’s hygiene, what they’d put up with, what would make them run, and what, surprisingly, they find attractive.<\/p>\n
#1. Sweaty can be hot.<\/strong><\/p>\n Amanda, 25, was too embarrassed to admit it on Facebook, but she loves sweaty guys: “I LOVE sweaty dudes. Like not even lightly, just-worked-out fragrant, I like when it smells as if it’s been stewing and very strong. I don’t know why, I’m gross, I guess.”<\/p>\n “I know I REALLY like them if the sweat doesn’t bother me,” says Becky, 29. “Otherwise \u2026 not really a turn on.”<\/p>\n “Sweating just for the sake of sweating, no. Sweating in the sweltering heat or because we\u2019re having sex, hot,” says Jen, 33.<\/p>\n #2. Wash up, or you’re not getting’ any.<\/strong><\/p>\n “They MUST be washed. And not wear bad cologne. Or too much cologne. Really I just need to be able to breathe,” says Rachael, 25.<\/p>\n “I can’t even with dirty guys. I think it’s because I’m the type who showers two to three times a day in the summer. Even with guys I’ve loved, I’ve found their sweat or body odor repulsive. Maybe I haven’t found the right guy,” says Tanya, 30.<\/p>\n “If he hasn’t showered in a couple days and he’s not a smelly person, then it\u2019s fine. But the one major MUST for me is awesome dental hygiene. If he doesn’t floss and brush regularly, I’m gone,” says Lizzie, 34.<\/p>\n #3. Cologne vs. au natural.<\/strong><\/p>\n As we saw above, Rachael doesn\u2019t like to be smothered with cologne, but what about other women? The men’s cologne industry seems to be thriving, after all.<\/p>\n “My husband is pretty good about his hygiene from an actual HYGIENE standpoint. I DO wish he were a cologne dude. I DO wish that he spent about 2 more minutes on his hair because that extra 2 minutes would take him from hot to MEGA hot, but I also know that he’s not a fashion dude. So \u2026 there’s a wishful thinking aspect, but he’s presentable and not smelly so I can’t complain,” says Colleen, 30.<\/p>\n “I’d been smelling Bleu de Chanel for months and loved it. So I bought some for my boyfriend, and no thanks. It smells far better in my magazine than it does on my man. I guess I love HIS smell way more,” says Lynne, 36.<\/p>\n “Aftershave is nice but cologne can be overpowering,” says Becky, 29.<\/p>\n #4. And for the unwashed hair debate?<\/strong><\/p>\n Although she wasn\u2019t crazy about cologne, Lynne does like stinky locks:<\/p>\n “I love unwashed hair on guys! I know this has everything to do with my childhood crush on Kurt Cobain. The smell really gets me excited,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n “Love it! Besides, I rarely wash mine, so why should I expect he washes his all the time?” asks Leigh, 31.<\/p>\n If you’re going to get close to someone, physically or emotionally, at some point their personal hygiene will come into play.
