Smelly Customers, what to do?

Do you have Old Person Smell?

The Deli thread was getting way off course, and this is an important topic for all gay men.

I resent the generalized suggestion that older men have a particular smell. I'm clean.

Many years ago I read an ad from a guy saying something like "...I'll shower together with you before sex...".

This is funny!   And the old man smell is real!!

But actually …

As an escort, I have a number of clients who I’d classify as … with all due respect … surprisingly old.  

And I have yet to encounter old man smell in a client situation.  Scouts’ honor.

Maybe staying sexually active keeps that part of aging at bay?  Which is to say…

Don’t stop hiring!

very self-evident advice......but, yeah, there is an old-man smell with some people....... 

also, this is probably AI-produced (nothing new, I know)......watch the strange way his eyes blink......just another way youtube enables revenue-producing junk.......the stethoscope is a nice touch

Well, for my older brothers, believe it or not, what people call “old man smell” actually has a scientific basis. It’s tied to a compound called 2-nonenal that develops as skin chemistry changes with age (40 plus). It can create that faint musty note people talk about.

It’s important we stay active. As best as we can. Guys who stay socially (and even sexually) active tend to stay on top of grooming (clean clothes, fresh bedding, all of it) so you don’t really notice it.

But sorry fellas, the phenomenon itself is real.

I meant nothing personal. Apparently, the issue is very real. Lots of pages come up if you Google "older man smell."

My eyes aren't trained yet. I miss a lot of details these days.

I just mentioned this. Exactly right.

The "old people" smell is a real thing. A bathing routine with extra effort in exfoliation and thorough (!!) drying before dressing go a long way to eliminate primary cause. Every valley and fold, over a certain age, can quickly become laboratories for things to grow.
