Why do women always smell nice?
February 10, 2006
As I drag my butt all the way to work I couldn’t help but notice other people’s scents. Mainly because I go to work at night and all the other people that I travel with are on their way home from a long day of filing papers or lifting rocks or sleeping on their desks or God knows whatever they do in their jobs.
But last night was not like any other night (of course when I say that it is only to add an element of suspense and make you read on), as I was sitting calmly inside a bus, my olfactory senses suddenly detected a strong hint of uhmm…was that banana or melon? Anyways, there is this chick sitting beside me that caught my goldfish-attention with her scent. She then suddenly whipped out another canister of god-knows-what and sprayed her hair with a chemical that released a flower-like fragrance. Then before I alighted the bus she pulled out a bottle of hand-sanitizer from her bag which smelled something like oregano. I started thinking then that I might smell like shit and the reason why she keeps on spraying perfume is to ward off my hideous odor. She might also thought that I have a very contagious illness that inhaling the same air that I did might infect her and make her turn green.
Bottom line is that all women smell nice, at least POM Badguy and most of my buddies think so too. Whether she be a labandera or a kolehiyala, women tend to give extra effort to spiff up and smell wonderful all the time, unlike the XY-species who (eventually) smell like construction workers most of the time, unless he’s gay.
