Women Were Just a Bit Cleaner Than the Men

Boredom Files

It’s normal for women to look out for their general hygiene way more than men do, but when it came to the Wild West, women were only slightly cleaner than the men. While women weren’t out riding the horses in the fields, they were stuck at home cleaning up after everyone, which meant that they were getting their hands just as dirty as the men. They had so many things to do and take care of, which didn’t leave them much time for personal hygiene. They hardly had time to wash their face! Good thing the men always smelled way worse than them that when they finally made it home from their long journeys, the women always smelled better than they did.
