Something I haven’t seen mentioned here is the fact that sweat acts as a lubricant between the skin of your torso and upper-inner arm preventing chapping with increased skin-on-skin contact movement.
Yes, the sweat keeps you cool and the smell attracts others with different immune system.
My partner’s sweat smells so fucking UNFFFFF and has for the last decade and I cannot get enough of it aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
You’re a girl I imagine? I feel like girls are more likely to experience this than dudes. Anecdotal of course
I’m a male bottom and also can occasionally go crazy for musk.
I know a president like that.
Supposedly the smell was something prehistoric people would flaunt. Mating in a lot of species is odor-based, and at one time, we were no exception. They did an experiment in an episode of a science program called Brink where they made a pheromone system that could be used to detect how related you were to a potential mate and found it successful. For us, they say, it just happens to gather in our armpits.
Whatever prehistoric people thought, nowadays we seem to dislike body odor and tend to favor filling the room with a mist of Old Spice.
