Mo Stinky Mo Problems
Dear Best Friend,
I have a date at a fancy asian restaurant and i want to wear a skirt with stockings, but customers are required to remove their shoes at the restaurant we’re going to. how can i ensure that i wont ruin dinner with my smelly feet?? stockings are the worst!
Signed,
Not gellin’ like magellan in Brooklyn
Dear Stinky,
Have you thought about washing your feet before putting on the stockings? Or better yet, wash your feet AND your stockings so everything is fresh when you go on your date? Something tells me, because you are focusing on your feet, you might just have abnormally stinky feets. Which is cool. It happens. Have you ever put baby powder on your tootsies before your socks, or stockings? That’s really good for cutting down on sweat, which causes the odor. Although, then you have the additional problem of getting the white powder everywhere. It would take some extra effort, but probably worth the time.
If you can’t do that, you could go the hipster avenue (you said you did live in Brooklyn) and wear those dance tights (otherwise known as leggings) instead of your stockings. Ugh, but all these suggestions are really taking the focus off the real issue, plus leggings are just stupid. Rejoice in the fact you have a date. You’ve got a date. That’s awesome. Whooo, dates. Good stuff. And, as I’ve said before you want someone to like you for you…and if you have stinky feet….it’s better he knows that now, rather than 3 months in when he walks in on you covertly fabreezing your smelly-ass feet and thinks you are fabreezing an entirely different area…which wouldn’t be very healthy…fabreeze is for fabrics…not body parts.

OR you can go without stockings. I hates the stockings! I gave them up some time ago. If you need some material between your feet and shoes, you can get those little footsies and then just remove them when you remove your shoes.

Ok, I’m going to be frank, just like me and about 13,000 more men would rather you have stinky feet with stockings on then to rather have a girl that dislikes her natural odor. See, we learned to appreciate that of a female’s natural odor, we can embrace the fact that she have smelly feet. However if your not talking about just your date it’s leaves a stinky situation, inspite of the fact you do have smelly feet in the resturaunt, use that as a tempting and arousing action towards your date, now c’mon, thats getting some where right?

How did the date go? I think you sound nice - I’d love to see what your feet smell like!

If you do have “abnormally stinky feets” just be aware that there are A LOT of guys that actually enjoy and are aroused by the smell of a woman’s feet when they are sweaty and stinky. I’m sure it is only a matter of time before you find one who can appreciate your scent. Good luck!
