Switched from using Old Spice Body Wash (RIP Krakengard) to Dove beauty bars and showers have become infinitely more pleasant. It feels good to apply, it smells like oatmeal and rice milk, and it always gets the stank off my nuts and ass the first time, unlike body wash.
At wal mart: "blue Equate brand men's loofah $2" "blue Equate brand women's loofah $1"
That's not how this is supposed to work.
The only women's bath product I really see a difference with is those jarred creams with abrasive material in them (like strawberry seeds or sugar; not micro plastic beads). They're the only thing aside from Lava brand hand soap that actually exfoliates my skin so I don't have weird hard spots of gunk in my pores along the outside of my thighs. My ass is so, so smooth now.
And then there's people buying the first thing they see just because it's in the right section.
There's no need for any of that. There's plenty of higher-end grooming products marketed to both men and women, or even gender neutral, that can be purchased nowadays. And yes, if the price point is your greatest concern, it's a factor to consider. But shaving brands for men such as Proraso is great quality for the price point. Why more people settle for brands like Gillette when there are better products on the market at or even lower in price is beyond me.

But I’m not legally allowed to buy anything better than Gillette. I’ve been told that Gillette is “the best a man can get™” so I’m kinda stuck with it.
Sometimes I buy womens soap because it doesn't make me choke. If I can't find soap that doesn't smell like I'm swallowing razorblades then i'm going for the womans soap. Luckily I haven't been faced with that situation recently.
Is using an old picture of Elliot Page
