Here in Portugal people smoke a lot and when I am in the cities people smoke among non smokers and they walk the streets holding the cigarette in the hand but without smoking them. It is ridiculos because they aren't even smoking that much and they are just carrying the smoke through the streets. Smokers are so foccused in their addiction that they forget the others. Thus, most of the smokers I see drop the cigarettes on the floor even if the bin is just a few steps ahead.

Japanese and Korean people have specific variant of the ABCC11 gene that reduces the production of smelly sweat. This variant limits activity of the apochrine glands, which are said to produce sweat containing proteins and lipids. However, a Japanese person with the ABCC11 gene variant will have less active apochrine glands and thereby sweat less. Less sweat means no bacteria-producing body odor.

I come from a country in which wearing a strong parfume is considered as normal, i brought that culture to my lab. In less than 1 week i joined that lab, someone told me that other members felt distracted by the strong smell of my parfume, so i was suggested to not wear parfum whenever in the lab. Then from that day, i have never been wearing parfume 😅 even i was so cautious when picking body lotion so that it didn't have strong smell that distract them

Must be a nightmare to live in Japan if you have a medical problem that causes you to smell bad... Skin ulcers, difficulties with colostomy bags, even digestive problems... It's fairly well understood that some medications can cause one to sweat excessively (and some people just sweat 'excessively' anyway), but a lot of people don't realise that the way some medicines are metabolised can 'come through' as a bad smell from the skin, in much the same way as garlic, booze, and pork, only moreso, even on a freshly washed body. Good hygiene will help prevent skin problems and is of course simply considerate when using public transport, and in the workplace, especially in a crowded country like Japan; but even clean humans naturally smell - we are biological beings, after all. I think it's something we've all gotten a bit too uptight about - but then, it's big business, isn't it?! We literally have a visceral and emotional reaction to smells, especially bad ones! As such, one can hardly be blamed for being disgusted by the smell of, say, rotting flesh; evolution has made us that way for good reason, and nausea is nausea! However, any condition that causes a person to 'exude' such an odour is likely very painful, and while it is possible for a certain type of person to become impervious to their own B.O., someone who smells because of a genuine medical condition will almost certainly be very self~conscious of being 'offensive', and find it shameful. The _last_ thing they need is one of these 'princess' types who has never smelled anything 'icky' in their life loudly making assumptions about that person's presumed lack of hygiene, or, God forbid, spraying them down with some product like 'Impulse' (do they still make that?) or 'Lynx', as I saw being done to an unfortunate elderly lady on a bus a few years ago!

I use benzoyl peroxide (acne) wash on my pits bc I got sick of deodorant staining my clothes. It works great! I did this on the advice of Dr. Dray, a dermatologist on KZitem. You can even carry benzoyl peroxide wipes with you just in case. I did find that the bp can cause clothes and towels to fade, too, but I still like using it. Fading is better tha gross yellow deodorant stains.

I’ve always hated strong smells, even if others consider them pleasant. It just overwhelms me and makes me feel dizzy sometimes. Like there was this time where at school after gym class this one person (I don’t know who) would always put on an absurd amount of perfume and I’d smell it so strongly AND IT WAS OUTSIDE. The most I’ll put on is deodorant because of this. I wish people did not wear perfume or whatnot because it’s so obnoxious to me.

It really depends on the person and how they were raised. I’m half Japanese and everyone on my Japanese side uses body perfume and some do have strong body odor. My last company I worked for in Japan, mainly everyone had smelly taco pits 😂 the guys I can understand, but even women had it and I could smell it across the room 😅 so yeah it really depends. Just don’t go overboard because I’m sure even you’ll feel sick if you put too much or a strong perfume on.

Not only do japanese people have a genetic differences for sweating they also have smaller and less sweat glans then other races. Reason for this was due to where they settled down. The need to sweat to cool ones body off was not needed as much on the island nation as was needed in desert, jungle and many other places on earth. So their bodies adapted to what was needed for where they live. Over many many many generations. Every race did the same to adapt to the climet and unique places they lived. It is a true testiment to the adaptability and survival abuility we humans have built into us.

One of the reasons why I hate summer is because I sweat more than most people, so obviously I probably don’t smell so great. On hot summer days, I can start sweating 10 minutes after I take a shower. In fact, a shower doesn’t really cool me off in the summer because the water tank is on the roof in the sun all day so even the cold water is warm. So, there isn’t much I can do about my sweating. People think that having a body odor is offensive but I think it is far more offensive to shame people for things they can’t control.

So untrue about the body odors, most Japanese I encounter everyday have body odors that you can already smell from a certain distance. Some of them ranges from students up to adults(different working fields) . You can’t smell them much during winter but on summer it’s really strong and sometimes makes u dizzy

Do some investigation first, as other stated already, it's not in the meat, but the genes. They eat a loooot of meat, but they also eat a lot of everything else and their food is often well balanced. It's personal preference to eat not healthy because helathy food is really afordable in comparison to US and some EU countries

Says the no soap bathrooms. Sweat is also hereditary so they simply sweat less and have less pungent smell but a really sweaty person will still smell. Go to a lockerroom and tell me otherwise.

Lots of assumptions in this video being passed on as facts. Japanese and Koreans have a gene variant which is why they sweat less. Already covered in detail by other commenters. Japan consumes just as much meat as most European countries. Only a few other countries such as the United States and Australia consume more. Which is why it is difficult to find vegetarian options compared to other Western countries. The use of fragrance is catching on in Japan especially amongst young Japanese. Though the palette slants much more towards fresh and floral. Preferably subtle and less projection. To drive the point, there was 4.7 billion yen worth of perfume sales in 2021. Go to Isetan in Shinjuku and both the cosmetic and fragrance areas for men and women are crowded.

One of the many reasons I love Japan. My husband and I both have really sensitive senses of smell and 99% of perfumes and scented products make us sick. I swear some ppl in the US(and everywhere else)need an independent person to come up and tell them they are wearing too much perfume because obviously these ppl who smell like they bath in perfume do not currently have anyone in their life who will.
