i was thinking of that commercial. . .
 
 i have a friend with pretty bad OCD, and he'll only use bar soap.  he was out to visit one time, and all we have is the body wash. . .1 hour later, he finally gets out of the shower because he had been trying to rinse off all the scrubbing pellets that were in the body wash.

Here it is.
 
 I've had the problem of what to do when you're a guest at someone's house and they only have bodywash  but no guest loofa (not that I'd expect them to). After running into this problem several times my girlfriend told me to just use a washcloth, something that hadn't occurred to me.

Is it so hard to just throw a dab of body wash on one hand, rub your hands together, then lather up the rest of the body?  Really, you can't do this without a loofa?

What is this body was that y'all speak of? This is the stuff that rocks!

have any of you ever bought a huge loofah at a latin grocery? it's shaped like a baseball bat, and you have to cut it into...chunks, and shake out the seeds before you can use it.
 
 i didn't think that guys bothered with loofahs or poufs. it's weird... too girly. i also barely approve of body wash. additionally, i could never kiss a guy knowing(/smelling) he used axe products.

It's all good, many of your girlfriends have.  I'll live.    
 
 But real talk, though.  I'm not really ridin' with the loofa movement, but what could possibly turn you off about a guy wanted to be clean for himself and/or making himself presentable to you/ladies??? Are you a hippie or something??

You just end up using a lot of soap this way. I'd always prefer a bar in these situations.

But it's their soap, so who cares?
 
 And I guess I shouldn't tell you the last place I had that bar of soap you just borrowed...

guys can get clean by means of bar soap alone. i'd rather not have the same beauty regiment as boyfriend and i'm not into guys that feel like they should exfoliate. most guy's bodywashes smell just as bad as their body spray counterparts and ultimately leave the user perfumed. i associate body wash and loofahs with myself and i suppose femininity. it's important to me that someone that i'm going to be all up on smells attractive and masculine.

First off, if I happen to spot a loofa and some sort of body wash in my man's bathroom, odds are, I'd never give it a second thought. If for some reason my mind decided to wonder in that direction, there would be no negative thoughts unless he was stashing something like a Sponge Bob loofa and Bubble Gum scented body wash. Sensitive men are a turn on. Children are not.
 
 Personally, I find it a real turn off when men are passively homophobic enough to get hung up on stupid stuff like thinking that it's gay to wear pink, use loofas or scent their bodies. It's much more important to care for the body which a loofa helps to do. Those things are great for helping to control things like callouses and general body itching due to dry, flakey skin.
 
 Regarding body wash scents, it's important to find something that mingles well in the room and works with your personal body chemistry. What smells great on one person may reak on another. Until you find what seems to work best, have fun experimenting.
 
 And for God's sake, have the balls to call a loofa a loofa! Men havinig sex with other men is gay. Calling a loofa something other than a loofa and using loofas along with body washes is not gay. In fact, if anything, I would tend to think that sort of man would be more self assured and much more sensual in bed.
