Chicken Fried Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Irish Spring bar, with no wash cloth or soap poof. Just straight up soap bar. Same. Irish Spring is the manliest way to clean yourself. Body wash was recently invented and, therefore, is wussy. Real men have been using bar soap for centuries. Do you think R. Lee Ermy uses body wash? I don't think so. Also, body wash runs out really quickly and is more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickalino Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 You remember when you were shampooing your hair and decided "to hell with the soap today - I'm using the shampoo all over!"? That's pretty much it, only it doesn't lather as much as shampoo. Eww, I'd never put harsh shampoo chemicals all over my junk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Fried Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Makes you think twice before using the bar soap in someone elses home Hell, it's soap, so it has to be clean, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MassSkinsFan Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Hell, it's soap, so it has to be clean, right? Yes. In a soap v. scum battle, soap wins (mostly). In cases where it doesn't you're probably screwed just being in the shower, soap or not. Eww, I'd never put harsh shampoo chemicals all over my junk What if your junk had dandruff? What the **** kind of shampoo do YOU use? Flea shampoo apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPwr44 Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 Exactly, the one in our house turned black from all the mold Turned black from mold? Damn Mick, you only had one washcloth? And you never put it in the laundry?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Dial bar soap. No loofah or washcloth. I think those bodywashes are a complete waste of money and they irritate my skin anyway. Pale skin and freckles = dial soap for life Here's a thought. Doesn't matter which hotel chain, the hotel soap always comes in a wrapper that says "french milled bar soap". Why? Does carving a design into the top of the bar of soap make it clean better? Does it enhance the customer's stay at the hotel in any way? Did they used to just have regular soap, but guests kept demanding french milled soap on customer feedback forms? Or is there a marketing firm somewhere that consulted with all the hotel chains and said "you know, if you just had french milled bar soap, your revenue should increase." That's ironic considering the French's aversion to soap. I've never even noticed that and I have a whole bin at home of hotel soap, shampoo, etc. I'm now going to have to look at this when I get home from work.

McD5 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 is it easier to reach with a bar of soap in your hand or something? I'm confused I'm not a big fan of washcloths, unless forced to use them at a hotel. Who really wants to use a washcloth in private areas, then have it sitting there in the shower to be used again? Disgusting. So, I use one of those sponge things to apply the body wash on my body. Now, it's impossible to use one of those sponge things for the hard to reach area, so a bar of soap works better for that. Then, unlike a washcloth, you can easily rinse off the bar of soap. And I have seen a few mention Old Spice. Thumbs down, imho. You wouldn't wear their cologne, so why use their body wash? Unless you are over 70 years old, or work on an assembly line in Detroit. Do Democrats use body wash or soap? Washcloth or hands? Dems don't bathe that often. When they do, a hose outside in the yard will usually suffice. And leaves, grass or bark can substitute for a sponge/washcloth.:pfft: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale skin and freckles = dial soap for life You probably haven't tried the right wash. I go to Northern Ireland for 2 weeks a year at least, and that is a place where there are tons of pale-skinned freckled people. We stay most nights with friends or family, and I've yet to see bar soap in the shower in anyone's house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to Northern Ireland for 2 weeks a year at least, and that is a place where there are tons of pale-skinned freckled people. We stay most nights with friends or family, and I've yet to see bar soap in the shower in anyone's house. Really, that's your parameter for whether or not to use bar soap? I guess I simplified it to pale skin and freckles. In reality, ever since I was a little kid, I've had sensitive skin (aka the cereal Trix would give me contact dermatitis, cinnamon-flavored anything, even candles, would make me break out....how I lucked out of asthma, braces, and coke-bottle glasses as a child I'll never know). I've grown up in a dial soap family and will always buy dial soap. It's the only soap that works well with my skin. Also, I only use Clinique facial wash products on my face. I've used those since I was a teenager and they work, so why change? The way I see it is there is absolutely no extra cleanliness benefit to body wash, it's expensive, and it's a waste of money. But if people want to spend the money to buy it, that's great. I just prefer to spend my extra money on other things. Plus, I like that I can go to Costco and buy a huge pack and not have to worry about buying soap for a year. Regardless, as far as I'm concerned, if you're washing with anything, you win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 You body wash guys - are you the same ones that shave your body hair? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissU28 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 both. I wash myself with bar soap first, then use body wash. I don't feel really clean unless I use bar soap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosher Ham Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I don't understand the need for a washcloth. What's wrong with the hands ? My hands are not furry enough to hold the soap and get the bubbles going like a washcloth can. I feel that I get a better scrub from something that actually scrubs my skins and gets rid of dead skin. Exactly, the one in our house turned black from all the mold You get them once a month they are only a buck or so, and you have a washing machine..right ? And how did you have only one ? You shared ? That's disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I use bar soap under my arms, where the sun don't shine, and on my feet. I use body wash everywhere else. I don't use a wash cloth or a poof, just my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that I get a better scrub from something that actually scrubs my skins and gets rid of dead skin. You can get a good enough lather going with just your hands. It just takes a few extra seconds. You don't need fur. Just patience and persistence. You get them once a month they are only a buck or so, and you have a washing machine..right ? And how did you have only one ? You shared ? That's disgusting. They're not mine. I don't use them at all. Just an observation from the people who use them in the house I share. Remember, I'm a hand-scrubber myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedskinFeathers Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I hate the sticky feeling I get from bars of soap, I dunno it just feels weird.
