DP sits on soft furnishings with smelly post-run bum

DP (who I love dearly, this is just for fun!) goes running a few times a week and says he can't shower as soon as he gets home as he's still sweating. Instead he sits down on the living room sofa/chair for a while to cool down before showering.

The problem is that DP, who doesn't normally smell, has an absolutely honking post-run butt. I'm worried that the smell will build up over time and the living room will stink. DP says I should chill out and he should be able to sit down in his own living room.

AIBU to ask him not to do that? How can we reach a compromise!?

Tell him not to!
Mine sits on a tea towel on a kitchen chair messing about with Strava while he cools down.

Please tell me you don't then use the teatowel for drying up?

Does he not wipe his arse properly? Or are good shorts so sweaty they're actually wet? If no, then you've probably got nothing to worry about.

Tell him you read something in the Guardian last week about sweat reacting with fire retardants in soft furnishings and traveling up arseholes to cause....... impotence/stupidity/loss of running performance/ anal clusterberries
