Why is there a surge of deodorant products mostly advertised to women in the US? (lemmy.world)

So I have balls and yeah they're the first thing on my body to start to smell. I can skip a shower if I'm in a hurry and I don't smell much. That's with working a job that's usually physical. I was a punk kid fucking punk girls when I was younger and we didn't bathe every day. I didn't notice much smell then.

Now I see these ads regularly that are like hey women you stink after 12 hrs 5/10. What's up?

Reminds me of an old roommate I had. He didn’t think he smelled either… he did… it was rough

Been there with two coworkers back when I managed a restaurant. They couldn't believe they smelled when I had to have that terrible conversation with them. One improved, the other didn't. I actually had to fire the second guy.

Certainly wouldn't have been my roommate for very long.
