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.
People who don’t refer to people as ‘who’ instead of ‘that’.
I got his meaning. Isn’t that the purpose of language, in the end?
Yes, but this is about more eloquent expressive languages and complex meanings imparted by words being subverted to something akin to monkeys signing for a gumdrop.
That all who’ve flamed me for bringing this point to light, you’ve actually proven my point and shown exactly where ‘we’ are on the timetable - thanks for your ill thoughts.
Neither. I just don’t smell. Confirmed by partners over the years. As it turns out, it’s genetic. One perk of being Korean I suppose.
The non-functional ABCC11 allele is predominant among East Asians (80–95%), but very low among European and African populations (0–3%).[6] Most of the world’s population has the gene that codes for the wet-type earwax and average body odor; however, East Asians are more likely to inherit the allele associated with the dry-type earwax and a reduction in body odor.[6][32][34] The reduction in body odor may be due to adaptation to colder climates by their ancient Northeast Asian ancestors.[32] Wiki: Body Odor (Genes affecting body odor section)
