@shibao Deodorant and its consequences has been a disaster for the human race
Follow

@scathach @shibao just washing with plain soap works fine. odor isn't nearly as bad when you don't kill off all the good bacteria with crazy stuff.

@bonifartius @shibao @scathach nope. it depends on genetics and it may smell really disgusting. there're deodorands that don't smell, though, no need to put on killer perfumes on yourself.

@iron_bug @shibao @scathach took some time for my skin to get back to normal. also synthetic fibres start to smell really bad very quickly. i have an alum stick i occasionally use to reduce sweating, works fine.

@bonifartius @shibao @scathach there's no "normal" level. some people smell like crap if they don't use deodorants/antiperspirants. this is genetics, as I said. and a person with stunky sweat simply cannot "get normal". the same as smell from feet. some have it, some don't. moreover, there're a bunch of health conditions when people smell bad and no bath can help.

@iron_bug @bonifartius @shibao @scathach Just use baking soda like I do. It's much cheaper and a lot less toxic.
