People that don’t wear antiperspirant…
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.

These posts always make me question myself because I've basically never worn deodorant or antiperspirant.
I've had jobs where you can't be stinky(sales,office jobs, at a hospital), and nobody has ever said anything. I've lived with partners for 16 years, none have ever complained about my smell(besides times when anyone would smell, like after a long run on a hot day).
I'm guessing I just have lucky personal body chemistry, but I'm sure there will be some people telling themselves I'm just smelly and don't know it.
Some people genetically just don't smell bad when they sweat
Well. If your measurement method is "no one ever complained" there lie a problem. It happened to me to smell other people grossness but i wouldnt dare to tell them, i simply avoid em.
When I was middle school, I did just start smelling bad as I was sweating more. My parents told me to start wearing deodorant. I didn't know that some people just don't smell when they sweat.
I'm kind of the same, I rarely wear deodorant, and it's basically never an issue (believe me, my wife would tell me if it was)
But some days even I'm like "holy fuck I reek" - I think it's probably a diet thing
