What was meant to be a simple, helpful life hack turned into an attack on men's hygiene and the politics of exactly who's allowed to buy feminine pads.

This guy shared a photo of his underwear with a pad stuck to the inside, claiming it helped keep his underwear clear of "gooch grease."

If you haven't heard of gooch grease before, you're not alone. It's basically some unholy mixture of sweat and poop that can accumulate between your butt and balls. Apparently it's worse than swamp ass but not as bad as duck butter, whatever that is.

Anyway, it struck a nerve with people, who were eager to voice their opinions, reactions, and judgments against sweaty man cracks.
