Recently a good friend objected to an advertisement for a "groin deodorant" developed by a lady doctor so that one wouldn't be embarrassed when going in for a gyn exam. She suggested (quite authoritatively!) that if you bathed regularly and didn't have an active infection, you wouldn't need a deodorant, and found a lady doctor selling gyne-perfume to have a conflict of interest.
Naturally, I did NOT join in that conversation.
She studied medicine for years, and I trust her superior insight and knowledge, particularly when it comes to the female anatomy.
I know just enough about that, and no more.
Terms used included labia, hidden sachets of potpourri, that not so fresh feeling, and shitty doctors. All of the active participants were women. Which may not surprise you, but I would have LOVED to have the crazy old geezer who used to go to a local bar join in, as he was a gynecologist for nearly four decades. That he was gay as a rabbit had nothing to do with it, there were no causal links in either direction. But his mental state may -- or might not -- have been the result of staring at female bits for several decades.
A lack of perspective, shall we say.
Tunnel vision.
The reason why no men took part in that conversation is because, generally speaking, men don't ever discuss such things.
