Yeah this is what I imagine is going on with my body and hence the post. Never heard anyone else talk about it or seen a real source.
For me, I feel like sweating from my pits localizes the smell and thus no one really smells it. Again, I barely sweat anyway. But when I do use antiperspirant (deodorant does the same but to a lesser extent), then I sweat everywhere and find it easier for people to smell and I just feel more gross.
