Brucie Wash

Description A term adapted to describe the application of an aerosol or roll-on deodorant to the arm pits and / or genitalia without removing the clothes, commonly after a long day or night of exercise or activity.

Reason Activity is performed generally due to lack of time, motivation or interest in taking a shower or a bath, and is generally prompted by the detection of body odour.

Application Usual technique is to pull clothing to one side to allow deodorant to make direct contact with skin, but deodorant can alternatively be applied directly onto clothing around the offending area.

The Brucie Wash is generally ineffective against the onset or continuation of odour and / or perspiration, and the practice is generally regarded as unsavoury and not particularly hygienic

The term "Brucie Wash" (slang) was invented by a touring rock band to describe the habits of a member of the band who, in his desire to mingle with fans immediately after a performance, would often forego a shower in favour of a quick spray of deodorant.
