It is not an achievement that can readily be savored by his nearest and dearest.

英國《每日郵報》文：對於他最親最近的人來說，能夠輕而易舉的“盡情享受”那種味道其實並不是什麼好事。

But Kailash Singh has as good a claim as any to the accolade of world's smelliest man - after refusing to wash for more than 37 years.

但是凱拉什•辛格卻把這個“全球最臭男”當成是個不錯的榮譽，他拒絕洗澡已經有三十七個年頭了。

Mr. Singh, 65, has not bathed or cut his 6ft-long dreadlocks since 1974, shortly after he married.

65歲的辛格自從1974年剛結婚不久開始就再沒洗過澡，也沒剪過自己已有六英尺長的頭髮。

Explaining his unconventional decision, Mr. Singh claimed a priest guaranteed him a much-prized son and heir if he followed the advice.

對於他離經叛道的行爲，辛格先生振振有辭的解釋說，有一個牧師答應了他，只要他可以按照牧師的建議做，他就可以獎賞得到子嗣。

But his religious guidance clearly failed - he has seven daughters.

但是顯而易見，他所追尋的神的旨意並未顯靈，他已經是7個女兒的父親了。

The only “cleansing” Mr. Singh does allow himself is a “fire bath” each evening, which involves smoking marijuana, praying to the Hindu Lord Shiva and standing on one leg beside a bonfire.

辛格唯一的“清洗活動” 就是每晚的“火浴”——在一堆篝火旁“金雞獨立”，一邊抽着大麻，一邊向印度教的溼婆神祈禱。

“We've tried several times since to force him to have a shower but he puts up such a fuss，” said his wife,60.

辛格60歲的妻子說：“後來我們試圖勸說了很多次，想讓他去洗洗，但是他都置之不理，認爲是大驚小怪。”

“He says‘he’d rather die than take a bath and only a son could change his mind’. It has been so many years now I've got used to it.' She added.

“他說他寧肯死，也不願洗澡，除非生個兒子或許才能讓他改變主意。都這麼多年了，我也習慣了。”她補充說。

His wife even threatened to stop sleeping with him, but she gave in first, insisting she should be loyal and put up with the stench.

辛格的妻子甚至用拒絕同牀來威脅丈夫，但她還是先妥協了，她認爲自己應該對丈夫忠誠並忍受其惡臭。
