I am all about the baby wipes!!! I like the flushable ones because they dissolve though and you can get rid of them easier. I use them for everything!! eye make up, removing wax after waxing, clean up, that time of the month, etc. I am totally on team Brad for this.

When I worked in a sex shop we sold these little 'personal wipes' for cleaning toys or genitals or whatever. My boss used them DAILY to wipe down her armpits. Really, they were just like big wetnaps... very handy.

not Baby Wipes....Seventh Generation toilet paper sprayed with a blend of Witch Hazel and essential oils of Sweet Orange, Lemon and Lavender...

baby wipes are bad for the environment and haz chemicals!

That all said, I wouldn't be with a dude who didn't clean up his "brown eye" and area surrounding....totally gross

all my boyfriends have been ass-cleaning converts

The power of the baby wipe is unreal. Friends with children have shown me the stain fighting power first hand.

Spill your beverage on your clothes - baby wipes.

Food spill on upholstery - baby wipes.

I have no children, but now am a believer.

I have many methods for when you're too busy (erm. lazy) to shower. I already mentioned the dry shampoo. Then I like the baby wipes to the pits and more deodorant. Of course, top it all off with Chanel perfume.

Oh, and chain smoke, that covers BO. I have no shame in any of this. It's fun to not shower!!

@greengrey: The Rock 'n Roll Shower: apply deodorant over stinky armpits, run some baby powder through oily hair. A favorite at the kithkin house.

Having the worlds most sensitive nose, being around a person that smells is not easy(sometimes the NYC subway smells can numb you). It takes a few minutes to shower, and if you are working as close as actors sometimes have to work together...it makes sense!!

If Brad's at fault, so are most of the military men and women serving overseas. Sandstorms + lack of showers = babywipes to the rescue.

It's just the modern version of the prostitute's bath (washing your pits and crotch with a washcloth at the sink).

Cleaning yourself with baby wipes is A-OK in my book, though it is a little wasteful and should only be done when more environmentally friendly options aren't available.

Telling other people to wash themselves in order for you to judge them fuckable, however, is just ten kinds of rude.

@badmutha: yeah, my mom always insisted on my taking a "spit bath" even though I was completely averse to bathing - it was the compromise we made for eachother

To this day, I take more "spit baths" than real ones

though every Sunday is "long soak in the tub day" - just me, the bathwater, a book and a beer

@KLondike5: guess I am rude in your book because I have a stink level which I deem acceptable / not acceptable....I don't fuck stink - period

I make a point to ensure I am not super stinky and my lover should do the same - that is not rude, its consideration.

"When I meet a man, if I see baby wipes in his bathroom, I know he is not really clean, that he doesn't take the time to properly bathe himself. If I bring this to his attention, and later still see the baby wipes, I will not date this man."

@nessalicious: I've heard it called whatever or whomever that person or region wants to denigrate. i.e.:

-Mexican, or Puerto Rican, shower (by some Americans)

-Belgian shower (by someone French)

-Prostitute, or whore's bath

-...etc.

Though I love the "airplane shower" posted below, that is quite clever, and denigrates no one!

@formergr: Oh it's not denegrating! Glastonbury is a festival, and a particularly muddy one with appaling showers. I'm sure the actual people of Glastonbury shower normally but festival go-ers.....

@LexiNorthwood: Sure make deodorant wipes, they pretty much kept me on the right side of gross stench last time I went to a festival.

@nessalicious: Ah, good to know! I wasn't sure, and thought maybe Glastonbury was the regional butt of jokes or whatever. Didn't realize there was a mud festival, but that would certainly be a great place to use wipes!

@NerD!!! - R.O.A.C.H.: Agreed. This is just a helpful tip from a hot hot man to his friend (the hotness part is essential apparently).

Terrance saying that he requires women to use baby wipes when he's having "relations" with them... that's just gross.
