I’m sure this has been asked elsewhere already, but I’m curious and I want answers, damnit!

Why do so many shampoo brands look like cum? Men’s, women’s, pets’ shampoo? Cum, cum, cum. The two-in-one complete shampoos look like I just spooged in my hand when I squeeze the bottle. Me, in the shower, getting ready to wash my hair and I have to think, “why does this look like jizz?” before lathering it onto my head.

The moment passes pretty quickly, but I gotta ask why? Who is this for? It’s not really sexy. It’s a terrible lubricant. It doesn’t taste good. Whose cum is it? Where did it come from? Why is it in this bottle, and so on and on.

Please help, I am so confused.

    If liquid shampoo bothers you, be happy knowing that you can buy it as a soap bar - and also it lasts longer and no plastic waste!

        Good point! You don’t have to worry about >100ml cos it’s not a liquid and you don’t need to worry about it leaking/exploding cos it’s not a liquid.

          Yeah! I’ve had bottles of soap/shampoo etc blow up in hot cars, too. Pretty not fun to try to clean up.

    I agree with the last sentence.

    Anyway, the typical consistency of a shampoo or lotion is effective for the intended purpose. Thinner, and it would be difficult to dispense and spread. Thicker would mean it would have to be dispensed from a jar like Vaseline. Some popular shampoos appear green and pearly, too, which is rather different than most semen.

    but I gotta ask why? Who is this for? It’s not really sexy. It’s a terrible lubricant. It doesn’t taste good.

    It appears you don’t like jizz. Keep in mind that many people do, so if it’s intentional, it’s probably welcome.
