There is a reasonable scientific basis for this though, even though a lot of people are making fun, this isn't useless advice.
Show me the scientific study that supports men smelling like ass get more ass.
Doesn't exist. All you got is pheromones, not even correlation, just speculation.
Nobody said smelling like ass, obviously that doesn't smell good to anyone. But yes, if you weren't sweating and you showered in the morning, believe it or not straight women like the smell of men.
It is when you can buy pheromone cologne and have the best of both worlds.
yes, but that's with the pretty fucking major caveat that you WANT to shower so that people can actually smell your "pheromones" rather than being hit with a wall of fermented sweat.
They got so close but managed to completely miss the point
