I mean if both of you are daily bathers and not sweating all day, there is no issue. If anything a tiny bit of smell can be nice, really let's the pheromones do their work.

Hmm it's interesting how different people's perception of things might be. To mirror my question to other people who shared a similar opinion: but even after peeing once, there's some urine left. Doesn't it cause issues?
No, urine is generally cleaner than sweat, unless the person is dehydrated.
Wow didn't know that, thanks
My ex-gf (RIP) (she's not dead she just doesn't like me now) did not rly wash her hair. Nevermind about that. Historically sex has often been terrifying. We have got it so good you have no idea
CW: S.A., the most horrifying shit i have ever heard, do not read this
Before the October Revolution marital rape and giving birth too frequently with a poor diet followed by manual labor (serfdom was incredibly crushing after serfdom was supposedly abolished too, nobody really got lashes for treating their wife this way) was so common in Russia that women would regularly suffer uterine prolapse. I even heard that midwives would use peeled potatoes to try to physically hold the vaginal canal in for healing after prolapse. We truly have a lot to atone for, collectively. How long do you think until we balance out the suffering that's been caused? How do we know this isn't hell? Maybe it doesn't have to be for too much longer.
If you can't say no on those conditions, do you think telling your husband that he stinks like a fucking dog would stop him? Stalin, where are you? It's so dark in here. We need your help still

The odor of the partner is apart of the attraction. Not being able to shower afterwards is more of an issue, IMO.
In movies people are always doing in on the beach all covered in sand. ๐คฎ
Textured for nobodies pleasure.
I for one love using rugburn blood as lubricant.
Sex on the beach is the worst, but sex in the water is dangerous. Moving parts can create a vacuum which is very painful to break.

I think you will find that people vary widely on their personal taste and tolerance in these matters.
Just as some love foods that others find completely offputting.
edit: typo
Humans were having a lot of sex in historical situations where soap and daily bathing weren't typical. We're animals, you know.
But it's also normal for people to have varied levels of drive and personal thresholds below which it is no longer worth it. I was demisexual most of my life, and I'm functionally asexual now that the mass consensus is that it's okay to expose each other to sars-cov-2.
Pheromones have a big role in sex and pairing. Sex only after shower should be a definite no-no. You should have at least half a days skin excretion on. Otherwise from your bodys perspective you might as well be fucking a silicone doll and subconscious processes for pairing are left out.
If you have a condom, penetration might be less icky.
The only people I've known to have sex in public places have all been caught, so anecdotally it seems like it doesn't work out.
Maybe you only know about the ones who got caught?
Amateurs, all of them!
Alcohol wipes. No, don't actually do that ... trust me.
I'm more curious about how people have sex that spontaneously in random places?
It takes up to hours to get into the mood and any random place is likely uncomfortable and distracting enough to lose the hard earned mood.
