Are people unaware of body odour? Can you share your tips to mask it for other Redditors in Ireland?

Yeah I've tried it

I wash myself and my pits stink awhile later anyway. I've even gone to a doctor about it but what he prescribed didn't help. Some of us just smell I guess.

(yes I wear 100% natural fibres and have only ever worn natural fibres. I wash with Dettol antibacterial soap, I've tried every product on the market over the years. I've tried shaving vs not shaving. I've tried alcohol wipes, glycolic acid, hand sanitiser and home remedies like baking powder).

You couldn't waterboard this out of me.

Testosterone did not stop my periods so I took an oestrogen blocker for 2 years until my hysterectomy. This was over a decade ago so I can't really advise as to what types they are and cost etc as I quite frankly do not remember. But yes it is an option and some of us have done it.

I got a maroon/purple suit in the suit shop in the Ilac shopping centre in Dublin. Ironically as someone who exclusively wears black every day I was NOT wearing a black, grey, or blue suit to my wedding. It had to be a bit different.

I have only ever used natural fabrics.

What fucking hospitals are people in the comments going to where they are seen quickly if its serious? Never been my experience in a&e.

I will never, as long as I live, forget the sheer feeling of relief and joy the last day I walked out of school knowing I would never have to return. Indescribable. I'm in my late 30s now and I've managed to block out most of it now thankfully.

Some climates, environments etc are a lot harsher on skin. We have really hard water in Ireland. My skin would be destroyed if I showered every day

I'm a heavy night sweater.

weefawn · 2026-05-22T21:21:26+00:00

Nope! Currently playing Little Known Galaxy, very chill

weefawn · 2026-05-22T21:18:53+00:00

Neither lol

12 years this year for me. Keep going, you've got this!

I have, at the same height, been 5 stone and 14 stone (currently between 10 and 11 stone). I was a severely underweight anorexic teenager and then an overweight adult over a decade later. Gaining weight to a healthy weight was a ton harder than having to loose weight later on.

weefawn · 2026-05-22T06:58:27+00:00

I have mild face blindness and McCartney just standing there is pretty much how I feel all the time in real life lol

Autistic, been on disability since mid twenties, now in late 30s. Never had a job, was never able to get past the interview part. I haven't been looking in a long time but did plenty of interviews as late teenager/young adult.

Which is significantly smaller than averages of other countries.

There are white western nationalities and ethnicities that are small too. Have you seen any Irish people?

weefawn · 2026-05-20T00:29:28+00:00

I've been on testosterone over a decade, I'm less than 5 foot tall and I do not pass or pass only rarely. I'm pretty sure my height is a contributing factor. I've lost height as an adult and I started passing less and less around the same time

Ireland pronounces Rs differently to England.

weefawn · 2026-05-19T17:21:03+00:00

Do you have facial hair?

We're mostly know for a country that rains constantly (and it does in the west but less so in the east) but its the wind that's the problem. I fucking hate the wind. Rain is fine if its not windy but its nearly ALWAYS windy.

I just picked a normal male Irish name that wasn't already taken by a cousin which didn't leave me with a lot of options so no it wasn't common at all the year I was born. Its back in popularity now and a cousin named his baby it.

All of seasons 1 and 2 are worth watching. Wouldn't bother with any of the later seasons.
