Are you using deodorant?

I know. people used to come in to thestore where I worked, and we didn'twant to let them try on clothing because they smelled so badly of underarm odour.Sadly, most of those people were from India and the middle east. Perhaps body odour is acceptable there, but it isn't in Canada. I wish we could have been allowed to say something to them, or their friends said something.

hi cherriemae, yup i am using deodorant too. it was a turn-off if there is an underarm odor... yaikkks,, can't really bear that smell.. :)

of course in canada you are expected to wear deodorant or people will not sit beside you.

I use deodorant ALWAYS.I want the people can come near to me.I 'm not sure about some countries as you say,I believe they are some people that don't use deodorant at any country but if you know any specific country tell me.

I use deo everyday, infact I use it twice or thrice in a single day, depending upon the number of times i bath... Though I don't smell bad enough when I am not wearing deo, I still prefer using it every day after bath...

I have known people who didn't use deodorant because it "wasn't natural". Even though I understood where they were coming from, I still found it quite repulsive. It's like the odor comes along and slaps you across the face! LOL. I use deodorant every day, sometimes twice, so that I will not offend anyone, including myself.

Yes I use deoderant.I for one cant stand to smell the smell under my under arms without deoderant.LOL.Although some health site say its natural and healthy to sweet and not wear doederant.I cant bring myself to not wear it.When some peole sweat alot and raise thier arms it reminds me of the chili sauce smell.No offense to some people though.

mostly no. I wash. then on hotter days, or when I feel like I will be smelly, I wear it. but not any with chemicals and metals in it. basically, fresh sweat doesn't smell. it's only when it's stale. and it's not the sweat itself that smells bad, it's the bacteria that feed on the sweat. so if you clean properly and often, then you won't smell bad. I never use anti-perspirents, as they are not good for you. people sweat for a reason, and anti perspirents block glands with metals. so I don't use them. when I use a deodorant it's a natural one, with bicarbs, and with citrus and tea tree and other anti-bacterial ingredients in it. just because someone doesn't use a deodorant doesn't mean they smell bad. so not using deodorant isn't disgusting. it's more disgusting when people use deodorant because they can't be bothered to wash properly. in fact, because of my workplace, I am confident in saying, I smell better than most people. people ask about what perfume I'm wearing on public transport, even when I'm not wearing any.

definately in our part of world its a must cos of climatic conditions over here brings lot of sweat and they are the best to keep bad odour out

I not only use deorodorant but I baby powder myself also. It helps to keep me feeling fresh and cool. Body odor can also be caused by the foods we eat not only by not batheing or not using deodorant. Also some people use antipersperant (spelling)but perspire anyway and do not realize that antipersperant will not control the odor.

Yeah, I am also using deodorant, you know just to make sure that I will not smell bad. :)

i can't imagine not wearing it myself. i never would..yuck..i couldn't stand it

in a tropical country, you would sweat and dry up and sweat and dry up again. if you wont use any deodorant, the sweat would foul up and and you'd reak of body odor. as an active girl, its okay for me to sweat but of course i dont like to smell of BO and turn off other people so really use deodorants after every bath. it a big part of my hygiene.

Same here I also use deodrant, perfume and body spray. Presently, I have bought deodrant and using it while coming to work. Its fragrance is good and no one ever complained to me.

I think it does more harm to our body...deo does not our body to prespire henceforth, hampering our natural body phenonmenon.

I definitely use deodorant every day. I sometimes even put on deodorant a couple times in the same day to freshen up cause I don't want to gross people out. lol I have to say, I don't really understand why people in other places don't wear it, but I guess they must just be used to it so it seems normal to them and must not bother them much. I can remember when I was out of the country once and my friend and I were on a bus full of people, and it smelled so bad cause I don't think anyone over there must wear deodorant! It was in the middle of summer too, so it was really hot, which I'm sure made it a lot worse. I just think I would go crazy if I smelled that horrible! lol I just tried to be polite and not act grossed out cause I didn't want to offend them. haha

Hey Deodorants are a must to have in the kit and a must to be in the shopping list..How can anyone not have a deodorant,.But yes deodorants have CFCs in them which are harmful for the ozone layer present in the atmosphere.may be people are aware of that or their girlfriends never complain of bad smell

I think, firstly, it depend on how one keep himself clean and gets rid of smell. There is a factor of personal hygiene. I know some people around who even take bath twice a day and then the bad sweat smell would make them unpleasent at once. Though I don't have some sort of that problem but I like to wear some often anti-prespiring agent or deodorant ;) I feel comfortable and its my habit to do so. But I suggest that everyone must keep itself tidy. I wish you a good day!

Yup, me i use deodorant every single day..Its not because i smell bad, its because i like the sweet fragrance of deodorants..Very few people cannot stand its smell, probably they can use light ones which dont smell strong.. Its not at all bad to use deodorants..

Yes I definatly need and use deodorant every day. Usually i'll put it on a couple of different times during the day too, to make sure I still smell good. I couldn't imagine life without using it, nor do I want to!
