He only bathes 2 times a week, sometimes less and on especially hot days he gets really sweaty and smelly. It's hard to cuddle with him and he sometimes makes our my bed comforter stink. Why does he get offended when I nicely ask "please take a bath so I can cuddle with you"...he always says "Ok fine mommy whatever you say" Is it wrong of me to ask for a little better hygeine?

He doesn't take up the offer to bathe with me

Of course not. It's only human to want your boyfriend to smell good. If I was living with my boyfriend, I'd want him to smell good too! Besides, that's the fun part of cuddling; you get to smell their scent and nuzzle your nose into their neck. :D

If you are living in America, then you have something to learn. It is customary to bathe everyday, and not stink when you get into bed with someone.
Personally he would get the ultimatum that you will NO LONGER be available to him unless he is sufficiently clean to pass your sniff test. This is normal, dear, to settle for less makes you appear low class. There are countries where people stink, they don't have good personal hygiene, they don't use deodorants, but in the USA it is different. Ask him to conform, or find yourself someone is isn't such a pig.
Nicely doesn't seem to work, I'd say tell him to do it, or drop him, forget "nicely". Only idiots limit themselves by having to be nice in all situations.

No, it isn't wrong, just try to find a way to bring it up in a way that won't hurt his feelings but yet let him know that he has some body odor. It is hard to be romantic if you can't get past the smell. I'm sure he would have the same feelings if the situation was turned around and it was you with the hygiene problem. Good Luck Dear!

No it is not wrong of you to want to cuddle with a good smelling guy! Maybe he has dry skin and is embarrassed to talk about it. Try asking him to take a bath WITH YOU. I guarantee that after a bath and a rub down with lotion he will be more eager to bathe. :) If not he may just have an issue with hygiene and you may have to break up and find a more "clean" fellow.

Amazingly intelligent is absolutely right. (Not surprising - LOL!) Allow me to elaborate.
A lack of personal hygiene is one of two things. Either he was raised in a family of filthy pigs. Or, it could be the first sign of a deteriorating mental condition. Addiction, illness, emotional problems, etc. Either way - SERIOUS ISSUES!
Also, consider this: if you continue having sex with a guy who only showers twice a week, you will continually contract urinary tract infections, and vaginosis. Both of which are a build-up of foreign bacteria.
Spare yourself a lot of embarrassing doctor's visits, and emotional pain. You can't "fix" anyone else. Get out now.

Depending on your age, no. But it would be better to actually offer to let him do it. Men are sensitive about various things, including how they smell and preference, to name two examples. Apologize to him, and tell him, you really want to cuddle with him, and that in order to do it, the two of you have to bathe, whether together or not. And that you'd really like for the two of you, to do it together. Also tell him that (or should I say kindly remind him) that hygiene is highly important- plus that you meant no offense. NO your hygiene request is perfectly right!

No, it's not wrong, but I agree with the first suggestion. You offer to shower with him or wash his back and make it a fun experience. Why he doesn't want to bathe without you pushing him is a whole other story.

Hell no!
Why does he only bathe 2 times a week, and furthermore why does he have a girlfriend who excepts it??
Tell him "Hey boy....you stink!! Put that frank and those beans in some water and get to scrubbing"!!
Tell him High? said to say that.

That's just nasty! Why the hell are you dating him? Clearly you can only get close to him on the one or two days a week he actually bathes... Tell him he to get his funky, nasty *** in the shower and wash!
This is actually your own damn fault. If you weren't putting out while he was grimey, he would totally change his ways. Sex is a powerful motivator
