I was talking about hygiene with my partner who is a nurse and they were telling me that a lot of people remark that their armpits are smelling worse than normal and they are using more and more deodorant and people just think it is normal.
Trichobacteriosis looks like a yellowish coating on some of your armpit or groin hair and you need to shave and wash the area every day for 2 weeks. It is more common in men than women in the US only because it is more common for women to keep their armpits shaved. Most of the patients who are affected by it think that its actually residue from the increasing amounts of deodorant they end up using.
I recently read an actual scientific study that found a direct correlation between smell and the length of armpit hair. So your unscientific hypothesis is actually backed by science. I’m too lazy to look up the source though.
That’s what armpit hair is supposed to do. Pubes as well. They’re pheromone transmitters
Crazy to think that stench is supposed to be alluring. Is that the takeaway here? It’s more like a repellent in my mind.
Pretty sure I read about a study where they found people that smell bad are genetically close to you, like relatives and people you shouldn’t procreate with.
People who smell nice are genetically diverse.
I went to school with an inbred family, they all stank bad. Natures way of saying don’t fuck that
Maybe not a product of being inbred in and of itself, but more like an intelligence indicator maybe? Correlation ≠ causation etc.
Fair enough, sounded good at the time
Still though. Don’t fuck with inbreds. 👌
Maybe you were a long lost bruncle?
My GF would definitely disagree with you there. On my worst days, she stuffs her face into my pits and is practically intoxicated by it. Turns her on.
Sidenote: my pet cat (female) also goes nuts for it. She’ll root her nose into my pits and get all lovey. If she finds a soiled shirt out of the basket, she goes crazy, and her brother had better steer clear when she’s “high on pits.”
ETA: I agree with you, however
lol
I find myself stinky at rare times, but when I let my wife smell me she says it’s not bad at all. I guess it’s somewhat of a similar sitch. Minus the arousal, sadly for me…
I do smell exactly like my dad. It’s crazy to me. My wife doesn’t know that by her nose, she just knows because I’ve told her. But it’s kind of freaky to me personally.
Yeah there’s a great middle ground between clean and rank. When my partners work out they smell intoxicating
