Wondering if this is an unpopular opinion: if you don't like the unwashed smell of your partner then that's your body telling you you're not a good biological match.

that sounds like weird evopsych bullshit

I don't think smell is even in the top 50 reasons that people end up with their partners, consciously or subconsciously.

If anyone's done a test of whether long-term partners generally adhere to those pheromone rules I'd consider that interesting, but initial attraction, scent-based or otherwise, isn't what determines long-term compatibility with a person.

Sure. That doesn't mean smell isn't telling us something though.

There’s a difference between a natural musk and just straight up dirty though.

That being said, you’re unlikely to be considerably dirty after 2 days of chillin inside.

I like the smell of my partner in the morning, but not after a hot sunny day. I think there are different levels of unwashed to consider.

My poor fucking nostrils

You realise this idea exists independently of decent hygiene, right?

No I don't smelly boi (it's a joke don't be mad)

Seriously though natural BO? No way it smells bad because bacteria eat your oils and poop it out onto your skin.

some people just have a smell that nobody would like so Imma judge that take complete horseshit
