do you not smell body odor or do you just get used to it?
Genuinely curious. I have met a few people of different walks of life that I could tell did not and I have always used it, so I’m just curious. I know there was a couple that stopped using it for around a year, and they said their body actually end up not perspiring as much as when they used antiperspirant, but I’d like to know other people’s experiences.
I’ve never once noticed someone’s body odor. On the other hand, some who just finished showering using a fruity shampoo reeks imo. Ditto for people who use perfume or cologne. And those often can also cause allergies for many people…
Yep, I have some sensitivity to fragrances and perfumes and unfortunately, people who use standard shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, laundry soap and dryer sheets smell horrible to me, sometimes from 5 feet away or just being in the same room. Some shampoo is so strong that I can smell it just from them having been in the same room 3 minutes ago. It’s unfortunate that sometimes, it’s people who think they’re being civilized and responsible, while in fact their scented stuff is causing problems that won’t exist otherwise. It’s actually harder to find products that don’t do this, though, as the standard American mainstream brand ones are all awful as far as fragrances go (Pantene, pert, suave, Gain, Tide, Bounce, Snuggle etc).
The absolute worst is when you’re swimming laps and someone goes past wearing perfume. You can taste it! Ugh. Shower before you swim, please (without fruity shampoo, lol).
You are truly fortunate xD
I work in a warehouse and omg the things I have smelled. The worst is when the person working in front of me has strong BO and a fan is blowing it into my face all day.
Can’t be worse than someone with cologne sitting between you and a fan…
Really depends on the cologne / dosage
Lol I take pure cologne over stinky any day
I feel like you must never have been in middle school if you’ve never smelled somebody else’s body odor. Those kids need to be told to use antiperspirant by their gym teachers/coaches for a reason.
Also that you must have never had sex.
Been to middle school. Can’t say BO was a problem. Axe body spray OTOH? Definitely was.
Can confirm lack of experience with sex.
Axe body spray wasn’t around when I was in middle school. So everybody just smelled like BO after gym class.
Lucky you. No wonder you think BO is bad if you didn’t have to deal with much worse…
Can definitely agree with you there. My sympathies.
It’s not really an issue for most people who aren’t exercising. And I can say this as one who fucks, regardless of your juvenile attempts at disparagement.
I made no attempt at disparagement. I was simply pointing out the fact that bodies produce scents when they have sex. In fact, I don’t think there’s anything wrong whatsoever with not having had sex regardless of one’s age or gender. It’s simply the truth that sex smells.
