Nothing went over my head, the post I was replying to referenced the article as being something everyone was overlooking, I directed my arguments to the points SOLELY within the article. I'm aware of what dermatologists say with regards to targeting specific areas when showering, and also choose to personally do otherwise because the consequences are largely irrelevant, but none of that is included in the article. I don't mean to be rude but you start off your post suggesting something went over my head when you clearly aren't reading the context of my reply and clearly haven't read the article.

edited for cordiality: Strawmans get me riled up.

The only point towards your comment was that it went over your head and that not showering doesn't have to = body odor or being smelly. I don't do the shyt personally, but as I also was mentioning, it's the hot water running over your body that strips the oils. The soap just strips the bacteria.

So you can kill the bacteria and odor with a lukewarm wet rag and it would be just as effective. Still not my cup of tea, but that person would be just as "clean" as you and I.

That's not going over my head, you must understand I'm replying to the quoted article, even what you are suggesting here isn't suggested in the article, the article defends BO as being necessary in order to preserve protective bacteria, the article suggests that skincare industry is unregulated thus unsafe for the most part, the article suggests disefnectives are unnecessary in most cases, that articles then attempts to tie it all in with a critique of the market that supposedly created this hysteria of wanting to smell good and be rid of BO. With that, I understand what BO is, BO is simply the bacteria interacting with other chemicals near the sweat glands (that's why dermatologists recommend spot target showering), this interaction causes emissions that allow us to smell it and render it unpleasant. If the bacteria isn't present, you don't produce BO, it's simple. This is why deodorant is lacking in Korea:

Several years ago ago, scientists discovered that a gene called ABCC11 determined whether people produced wet or dry earwax. Interestingly, people who produce the "dry" version of earwax also lack a chemical in their armpits that bacteria feed on to cause underarm odor.

"This key gene is basically the single determinant of whether you do produce underarm odor or not," Day said.

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.

People without Gene for Underarm Odor Still Wear Deodorant

So I am entirely aware of what is going on here, nothing is going over my head, my arguments in the post you originally replied to were directly associated with the arguments made within that article, none of which has anything to do with what you are arguing right now.
