Today, I taught my 12-year-old brothers that showering cannot be used as a substitute for deodorant, and that they should use both. One of them was almost in tears. FML

Usually you would have to tell them that deodorant is not a substitute for showering, but I guess that works too.

Teach them that if they smell nice, that they are most likely to get a girl to like them. Boys that age are mostly interested in that haha (from my experience)

Boys will be held responsible for their actions like everyone else.

I'm more amazed that it wasn't "deodorant being used as a substitute for showering." EDIT: Oops, I was too late.

This is a horrific state that needs to be forgotten and never said again. Guys shouldn't get a free pass for simply being guys. It is idiotic and sexist

You can't just turn their world upside down like that! You should ease them into the reality that is!

I'm nearing the end of my junior year and I'm not interested in girls. So, that may not go well.

Wait... IS THIS WHY I CAN'T GET A GIRLFRIEND. MY GOD.

Dude if you've never been interested in a girl and you're 16/17, that's honestly a little weird maybe you're gay or asexual. you're supposed to be interested in girls/guys/something by that time

Lol, put you in the bathtub..Then your girlfriend will come out.

I may be misinterpreting interested. Also I love how my comment got so many dislikes.

I think #86 means he's more interested in finishing school, rather than being focused on a relationship.

Welp, they're lucky they have a smart sibling to help them realise

well, you should be happy it's not the other way around :p

I know right, I'd give up on deo forever, as long as I can take showers :3

It wasn't up when I posted my comment, they were all at once so I didn't know
