While only 2 percent of Europeans lack the genes for smelly armpits, most East Asians and almost all Koreans lack this gene, Day told LiveScience.

No one knows exactly why gene prevalence varies so much between populations, but its absence in East Asia suggests that being stinky was evolutionarily selected against there over the last several thousand years, he said.

It’s true. The one and only time I think I smelled of B.O. was in high school during my awkward campaign through puberty. Otherwise, my ass is fresh

I MIGHT SMELL LIKE B.O. BUT AT LEAST I CAN STILL DRINK MILK. 

I have never worn deodorant…. I guess I am a 2%er

Is this going to become a new circumcision debate?

    I wear antiperspirant because I sweat a lot, but I’m not stinky, either.
