If you don't bathe/shower or keep clean, then yes it's an issue for everybody!! It is a health concern, as well as something others shouldn't have to deal with. I'm not making fun of anyone (though maybe I should), but why would someone not be clean?? Are people sometimes this clueless of personal hygiene?? It is not acceptable....

And if you are a patient, you would get told as well. This stuff contributes to diabetes, heart disease, stroke, etc.etc. as well as "social impact".

Come to think of it, it is RARE that someone actually comes to me like that; most don't make it that far unless it's an "emergency" case!!!

Just take care of yourself!

Funny thing: They were purchasing scent control items!! People need to start with the foundation of good personal hygiene 1st!!
He has a good point. With good personal hygiene, your scent will be a lot easier to mask or eliminate altogether. Good post.

And most people buy a bottle of scent killer and they put a few squirts on the front of their cloths and they think they are now scent free...

If you stink to start with...why spend $20 on a bottle of scent killer...wash yer butt.
Heck, I even tried showering with baking soda and used to wash off hands with same during bass tourneys too...don’t think it did much...but, you would think you need to start off "least" smelly as you can before you go to the woods...MPO

Place was packed with people. I noticed several with B.O. and dental/oral issues (decay & periodontal issues) that I could smell on them just by being near them!!!! Imagine how strong this would be to a deer!!

Wow! That's pretty funny. I totally agree though. I'm disgusted whenever I end up down wind from one of those people.
