Being a former Marine, I was taught that a man takes a shower with a washcloth (or warsh-rag if you live in the Midwest) and soap. The washcloth should preferably be rough enough to remove at lease two layers of skin and the soap should be either Dial or Ivory, no Dove or any crap like that.
So, when I run at lunch and go into the MEN'S shower, what do I see but something called "Caress Shimmering Pear Body Wash for Silky Lustrous Skin" and some kind of net puffball-looking kind of thing that I guess you use instead of a washcloth. My first thought is that maybe I'm in the women's shower. My second thought is that some guy is really PW'ed. And, my third thought is "Boy, I hope I don't drop MY soap."
So now that I am 50, maybe I have just become one of those old curmudgeons--am I just being old-fashioned or should men really be washing with that kind of stuff?
I have to admit, I have used some of that "Body Wash" in the shower before, but only when I was away from my wife for a long time, if you know what I mean.
