Settle an argument for me. BO is always disgusting and should be avoided? Or BO is desirable when you are attracted to the person?

option 1 avoid!

It is a MASSIVE turn on with the right person and EWW with the wrong one- I used to be grossed out by it because I was with the wrong partner. My current lover is a delicious match because he passes the sniff test- especially after hours of making love.

The reason a person has body odor is toxins more odor, more toxins I don’t know?

Diet? Activity?

BO is desirable when you are attracted to the person (within reason) it's the bio compatability of pheromones 💜
I strongly agree with you. I love the natural smell of my husband particularly after he works out or works in the yard, whereas I insisted my ex always wear deodorant. Every single one of my girlfriends finds body odor disgusting. Love that you found your person Valerie! Congrats!!!
Not entirely true. Food definitely changes the scent of someone’s body odor. Particularly things like garlic and curry.
Thanks sista! It’s a blessing - yay Costa Rica Envision Festival for bringing us together. When podcast interview Susie? ✅
I strongly agree with you, but interestingly all 5 of my girlfriends at dinner last night thought the viewpoint was horrific.

Define BO. The bacterial stuff isn’t the same as the hormonal stuff.

it’s different not only from culture to culture but from person to person as well! culture i grew up is europe-centric and values personal hygiene and cleanliness. so yeah, for me most of humans (then they smell) smell bad. tbh, it was the only one person who i wasn’t disgusted of – but i was attracted to them, can’t say if it’s a cause or effect tho 🤔

I think BO is never used positively

Don't confuse BO with pheromons

I’d say it depends. BO from working out with your significant other=good BO from someone not showing in a week=bad But my wife says I can’t smell so who and I to answer this?🤙🏻

Always disgusting

Avoided, but if you need to cover it up with strong cologne or perfume, I’ll take the BO.

avoided in public, but if you like someone's bo thats personal preference
Yeah, no amount of attraction would make up for disgusting hygiene for me.
Wdym? How those things affect someone’s scent?
I’m defining it as simply body odor or someone’s natural scent. Let’s say how you smell after working all day.
Interesting because I find Europeans in general to have much more offensive body odor than Americans. Certainly more ubiquitous when I am in Europe. I like your second thought. I don’t know if it’s cause or effect. I’m inclined to believe cause.
You are right. Nothing worse than bad BO covered by strong cologne.
It has taken on a derogatory connotation, but I was discussing it with friends as someone’s natural smell. I was surprised that they unanimously find their husbands’ sweaty smell revolting.
Awww!! That’s beautiful. I met the most interesting documentary film maker floating naked in the river who is making a documentary on Envision. Would be honored to be on your pod! You name the day/time.
Are you a male or female?
I’m just talking about the way someone smells/their natural scent. I remember that I found it very off putting with my ex and often asked him to put on deodorant if I smelled him.
male
Yes I see, but the question I raise is; Do we tell people with bad breath, or do we leave them unknowing
