Well, I'm both employed and happily married, but you can bet if my boss or my wife told me I needed to use deodorant, I wouldn't argue with them. C'mon, man.
Are you doing it just with that example (deodorant), or with anything else as well? That was my question. If you're not doing that, it would be interesting for me to explore the differences, and why you wouldn't do other things with your body when others are requesting it.
If it's a matter of hygiene, then I would listen. If it's a matter of personal taste, then I would see whether I share their taste. It's pretty simple, really. I don't want to be offensive, so that tends to be my compass.
i might get downvoted, but i think it's a valid question. however, i think most people are, which makes it a bit of a strange question. i think it might be better in its own thread.
