He has some problems, I'm not sure he washes that often. I, on the othe hand have a problem with him smelling a little....well....in the genital area. :( I know it's gross, but it bothers me, and it's a very, very delicate thing to say to anyone, especially to one's boyfriend. HELP me with some suggestions! Thank you

I'm sure he's aware of the smell, after all if you can smell yourself then so can everybody else-meaning if you can smell him so can he. Have him shower with you, even if he says he just had one. Its very fun to bathe someone! If that doesn't work, simply tell him that the only good funk is after-sex funk.
A guy I grew up with was uncut and always complained that no matter how much soap he used, even with 2 showers a day, he couldn't get rid of his odor. So maybe its something else going on with him.

I liked the answer about the positive reinforcement. You may also buy him a gift of a shower gel you like the smell of and / or cologne. If he still doesn't shower I would be blunt but delicate about it. Hint around about another guy you dated or a friend dated and say how he was so wonderful, but he stunk and that killed the relationship and how it is a shame that such a nice guy didn't get the hint from the girlfriend, etc.

my boyfriend showers sometimes twice a day, but he still gets that "smell" down there, and when he does, I wont do anything for him! Men just don't understand that that area sweats and you know men and their gases, it doesn't matter how many times they shower, sometimes it just doesn't go away. Take a shower with him, lather him all up (being loving of course) and then do something for him. Maybe he'll get the hint if you say something stupid like you like the smell of the soap, maybe he'll use it more often then!

If you feel that telling him directly is too cruel. You can try indirectly when you are watching tv, during a commercial on shower product.
Say these to him "I have always love the fresh scent from shower, it makes me feel so sexy. Dear, I want you to be sexy ....."
On the other hand, are you sure the problem is not due to problem other than shower???

You dating a dirty man doesn't say much for you. However, you have been dating him for over a month and should be able to inform him of his odor. I hope you haven't had sex with him already. You can ask the boy to shower, but I would rather find a boy who doesn't need to be told. Clean is healthy. Thank you.

Why don't you shower w/ him and then do all the work? Spend a little more time on that area, and it may be a good way for him to be exposed to the idea of cleaning himself down there. :-) Also, you might wanna make a point to him that it "turns you on" when he smells good down there. Guys are sort of easy when it comes to that stuff.. most guys that really like you get turned on when you're turned on.

The way to solve this is to program him. begin your love sessions in the shower. That way you can get him to clean the area and then you can even use the scent of your preference on him. When you hear that water start up, you'll know he's in the mood. If he's a guy and he likes...well.....you know....then he'll be your little pavlovian experiment. a shower will never seem as dull again.

Wash it for him! Buy him some cool products like wash made especially for males, a black loofah and go to town. Or when you're shopping together pick up some feminine wash, and mention how you clean downtown everyday. Then ask, "Do men clean downtown too?" That's a good transition into the conversation.

Ask him if he wants you to be honest with him about things or if he would tell you something about yourself that bothers him. More than likely, he'll say yes. When he does, just tell him as nicely as you can that he's got a certain body odor that you're not just down with. If he says he doesn't want honesty, just tell him plainly that he needs to shower more. Unless you want to live in a fog of perpetual funk, find a way to tell him!

Just say you really reek. No offense but you really need to shower more because its getting to be unbareable. That's all just be up front and honest with him. It may hurt his feelings a little bit but if he needs it then its the best thing for him. Hope this helped. Good Luck.
