Like, I travel around for work and I’ve met plenty of people from all backgrounds.

Why is there a demographic of people who don’t seemingly bathe regularly, or at the very least wear something to cover up their BO? I could understand if it’s an allergy, or even religious reasons (though the people I’ve met that smell bad are usually you’re average American young adult man) but recently (like in the past week, recently) I’ve met a concerning number of people who don’t seem to wear any kind of deodorant or possibly don’t even bathe regularly; it’s starting to become an issue for me, as I don’t even want to interact with them when I can smell them walking up from 3+ feet away yet I need to for work.

Does anyone have any possible insight?

    You know not everyone smells as bad as you do without Deodorant, right?

    Like you have a really strong opinion for something that genetically is different person to person both in what comes out and what is perceived.

      Different from person to person, yet all the people I could smell all smelled very similar, like sweat and feet mixed with ass and bad breath. Every. Single. One.

        There’s a bit of a selection bias though.
        Obviously you don’t smell the people who don’t smell, but not all of them wear deodorant.

      I have never smelled anyone’s natural body odor that smells good. Do you think poop smells good too? That’s natural.

        Sounds like a you problem. Moreso that everything smells like poop to you if it’s not artificially created.

        I want to try to be a bit nicer but wow you went from body odor to poop to argue natural smells. Isn’t the typically poetic phrase of smells to “smell like flowers” you know…a natural occurrence in nature?

          My point is that natural isn’t always good. I know, a hard concept to understand. Human BO doesn’t smell like flowers

            Also means it’s not always bad. You can’t dictate what people should do and decidedly say it will always be gross off of a “sometimes” like you’ve been doing in this thread.

            You’re honestly arguing a lot of “maybe” for what other people say while being very black/white yourself. Might want to check that.
