Third PSA: deodorant smells fucking awful. I would rather smell your natural stink, though I'd most prefer if you just bathed regularly.

Fourth PSA: your surface microbiome can be cultivated through diet and washing habits. If you have a healthy lifestyle, your pit stink will be mild even when you've been exercising. (However, your microbiome is inherited from your parents, so if they were disgusting, you might need probiotics)

    I used to be able to skip antiperspirant and just use non-scented deodorant.

    And then I birthed a kid. My hormone balance has never been the same and I stink more. Deodorant is a necessity now.

    People are different and need different levels of hygiene control.

    Probably you are overthinking it. Even bathing is new to humans, you don't "need" it

    Okay I'll just have a bath installed in the office then.

    Just shower before you go out and wear clean clothes

    I actually just don't go to the office anymore but basically the temperature most people find comfortable is hot for me and also I get sweaty walking. I'm built for a nordic winter.

    At home I can keep temperatures comfier for myself, prefer about 18 indoors.
