The major portion of a person’s odors are the result of the presence of opportunistic bacterial cultures feeding on the sterile secretions of glands in the skin and discarded dead skin cells. Really tasty people smell worse, which makes them a bit like cheese, though any person may become quite ripe if they save up their secretions and foliations to become a more cultured person, thus seeming to have superior taste.
True, but who are women if they aren’t any of the things they don’t want to be loved for? As an earlier generation asked, “What does Woman want?”
The Blog: I love the irony of a Japanese saying Europeans smell and Japanese don’t. What would we think if a European said Japanese smell but not Europeans? Or if I said I don’t smell but everyone else does?
Now after a nice long cuddle break with a needy cat . . .One thing that won’t enter into liking/loving someone or sex is how one smells. My nose is blind. or is that deaf? Because I can taste strong organic odors in the air, I suspect that sinus operations when I was very young killed the smell receptors in the schnoz but not in the area of the passage between nose and mouth. But for some reason, if someone is interested in how they smell to others, they never take me up on my offer to taste them.
Yes Teresa, I like mayonaise on my fries! I have always done that, and will always do that, it’s almost the very essence of being Dutch.Take that, JohnnyD!
Dream on, Henri. To what do you think men are attracted? …………………………………………………………………Mayo is never good on, or in, anything, at any time. Mayo is evil. (Note that I am speaking of the food-like product, not of Virginia Mayo or any other Mayo-person.)
Just had to chime in here about the food stuffs- Y’all be eatin’ some weird stuff….Reminds me of a piano teacher I once had who loved peanut butter and tuna fish sandwiches. Trust me when I say it did not make for a pleasant learning experience as he leaned over me to guide my playing.To this day, if I hear even a few notes of Bach Prelude in C, I still have that same gag reflex.
@TeresaNothing is brightens up a bedroom like a crazy-quilt.On a different note, my cousin is going to make me a tied quilt out of a bunch of my mothers more colorful T-shirts. She has bin doing them for people that lose a family member and want a remembrance.
I like the million mile Rolls on the blog. I know from having been a valet car parker that they do, in fact, still make them like that.
The first time you ever open the door of a Rolls Royce, it’s a trippy experience, because you realize the door mechanism has all these extra parts which are there just to ensure smooth operation.
The door of a Rolls doesn’t just open; it glides open, gracefully, and without abruptness. A normal car door seems almost violent by comparison.

The biggest change in social order is recognizing that females are human, too and have the same needs and desires.
