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?

I can tell when I do smell. I can also sense my deodorant until I start to smell. So nothing wrong with my sense of smell. It's actually quite sensitive. I'm just very clean, I suppose. I don't sweat much when I move a lot. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

My momma always said when you first smell yourself, other people have been smelling you for two days.
