I assume the article is going for “we should be okay with body odor” which feels very granola. Not everyone needs deodorant, but many do if they don’t want to smell. Antiperspirant can be bad for your body, but deodorant should do the trick for most, by masking the sweat smell with their preferred scent.

The article is screen grabbed and cropped to remove the context and increase outrage. It's actually about debunking all natural deodorants claims about detoxing.

Are we gonna have a body odor acceptance movement to go along with the fat one?

I live in australia and catch PT in summer. No one should be ok with body odour.
