We get it. The cameras close in on these Bachelorette contestants, the pressure is turned up and something slightly awkward is bound to come out.
But on a single date with Ali Oetjen during Wednesday night’s episode, Daniel Noonan said something so out-of-left-field, we’re really not sure what he was thinking.
When Ali took his (sweaty) hand, the poor guy blurted out something we’re sure he wished he could have shoved back in his mouth instantly.
“So, just bad circulation runs in the family,” the personal trainer began, seemingly in an attempt at small talk. “So if you think I sweat bad now, you should see my sisters, it is…”
Ali’s outburst of laughter wasn’t exactly the kindest reaction to the 30-year-old’s confession – but she did say what we were all thinking: “Don’t say that on national television!”
“They sweat badly,” he added, further embarrassing his siblings.
Being conversational, Ali asked Daniel, “What if we did a workout together? You’re gonna get really sweaty?”
We could see feel Daniel’s regret all the way through the TV screen as he replied: “Yeah.”
“I was trying to think of a nice answer to that. No, I will, yeah.”

This seems unfair you laugh about something like this. Hyperhydrosis runs in my family too. It's the reason my father couldn't be a surgeon (he couldn't get his hand in the gloves due to sweat) even though he got a badge for surgery while he studied. It's also the cause of angst for my 11 year old daughter who struggles to write without causing smudging on her page. She cannot do crafts without having a face washer nearby to constantly dry her dripping hands. It's the reason my daughter can't do intricate designs on biscuits etc because she sweats.
It's nice that this had been brought to light, it would just be even nicer if people were understanding and compassionate instead of ridiculing.
