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.

    Antiperspirants create their own issues. They’re not something I want cloggingvup my pores, giving me boils, and messing with my body chemistry. Its like eating Tums, once you start you’ve fucked up your stomach acid and have to keep using them.

    Take a shower once a day, and you won’t have any issues.

      Taking a daily shower is definitely not enough for some people to eliminate body odor.
