I recently read an actual scientific study that found a direct correlation between smell and the length of armpit hair. So your unscientific hypothesis is actually backed by science. I’m too lazy to look up the source though.

That’s what armpit hair is supposed to do. Pubes as well. They’re pheromone transmitters

Crazy to think that stench is supposed to be alluring. Is that the takeaway here? It’s more like a repellent in my mind.

Pretty sure I read about a study where they found people that “stink” are genetically close to you, like relatives and people you shouldn’t procreate with.
People who smell nice are genetically diverse.

Eh… best lit review I could find only found that smell predicted preferences among non-birthcontrol-using fertile women. So… Smell nice around them maybe? Lit review

I went to school with an inbred family, they all stank bad. Natures way of saying don’t fuck that
