Fresh sweat is sexy, but sweat goes from sexy to funky pretty damn quick. This is because the bad odor isn't caused by the sweat itself but by bacteria in your sweat.

    Then why the fuck does my sweat smell like gun powder and motor oil? Thats not sexy that's my body practically screaming about how I want to make the old union militias and IRA look like a bunch of amateurs.

    It could be your diet or it could be genetics. Or both. I had a roommate like that. As soon as it got hot, he started stinking. He would take a shower, but as soon as he started sweating again, he stank. I think in his case it was diet, because he ate lots of meat and no vegetables.

    Yeah but it's not like I start sweating all that bad, so I don't think it's the meat sweats. Probably balanced out by the fact that my diet is actually weirdly balanced. But yeah it's probably genetics, doesn't explain why it smells like gunpowder and motor oil though.
