We're going to be putting it to the test this summer!
Many years ago my husband used to use musk oil, or something like that, I may have to ask him what the name was again, and he said it was outstanding, but it carried with it an unpleasant odour, and it was super oily, which my husband loathed.
I was also concerned about it being oily & smelling. When you first put it on, it's a little oily but that goes away after a few minutes.We're going to be putting it to the test this summer!

I posted about it last year. I described how I not only got no mosquito bites, but there is an outdoor produce market that I shop at during the summer. They have goats & sheep in a pen & (of course) I have to pet them. Before I started using DEET, I would have many flies on me. After DEET, not a single fly would go near me.
I use this one but any brand that says "100% DEET" would work.

A woman can wear anything...anything
They still look like a woman
(WOOF!)
On the flip side, a guy, wearing wimin's garb looks ridiculous
Thanks for posting about, Win.I was also concerned about it being oily & smelling. When you first put it on, it's a little oily but that goes away after a few minutes.

I do remember your post about it last year, but being so late in the season and not having much of a mosquito year last year, we never gave it a go, but am definitely looking forward to trying it this year, especially when I'm out gardening.
Choose grannies, Win, they're the most comfortable!That's right. If I want to wear panties, that's my business.

I'm still not used to them wearing their hair in a "Man-Bun".

It has always been a curious thing to me, why some men choose to dress up as women. I am not talking about cross-dresser types, but typical men. They do it for a party gag or in a movie such as Jack Lemmon, or on stage. But these folks seem to just need the slightest nudge and off they go into the wild girly yonder. It always seemed to me that some of those older women's fashions such as high heels, corsets, etc., were designed by men who hate women, or at least have a strong dislike for them and certainly don't want them to dress comfortably. So why would a man want to do that instead of being glad/grateful that we have not had to do that?

Some things are just wrong, that's one of them.
I tend to agree. What business is it to anyone how someone else chooses to express themselves? If they aren’t hurting you personally then ‘live & let live,’ and ‘don’t sweat the small stuff.’ This IS small stuff. There certainly are more important things to worry about besides how men decide to wear their hair or what clothes they decide to wear. Seriously who cares?

Growing up in NY years ago some of us teased our pals on St Patrick's Day about the garments they wore on that special day. You know, the garments that looked like a cross between a dress and a kitchen apron. Some folks don't find that so manly. But, as always, judge not lest ye be judge I always say ...
I think that's a bit ridiculous. However I see nothing wrong with the man-bun. I have cast my eye many a time over a man-bunner

Deet can be hyperallergenic. I remember years ago when a guy about 30 of age sprayed himself with it as he was about to have a picnic. Only minutes later he fainted from the fumes, hit his head on the concrete ground and was declared dead at the scene. If you must use chemical rather than natural spray please consider Picaridin.

Agree. Deed is considered poisonous.

While I agree with your sentiment, it seems normal to me to always be curious about the things we see around us and wonder why a thing is as it is. But, then, curiosity killed the cat, as the saying goes.
Tony
Now that's what I'm talking about!
I agree, that looks really... uh, cute.
Maybe a little eyeliner, lipstick, and some hoop earrings to go along with it.
If that’s your thing, who am I to judge.
I like man buns. 'cuz laughter is the best medicine.
