Wondering if this is an unpopular opinion: if you don't like the unwashed smell of your partner then that's your body telling you you're not a good biological match.
that sounds like weird evopsych bullshit
You'd think so, wouldn't you?

I don't think smell is even in the top 50 reasons that people end up with their partners, consciously or subconsciously.
If anyone's done a test of whether long-term partners generally adhere to those pheromone rules I'd consider that interesting, but initial attraction, scent-based or otherwise, isn't what determines long-term compatibility with a person.
Sure. That doesn't mean smell isn't telling us something though.
There’s a difference between a natural musk and just straight up dirty though.
That being said, you’re unlikely to be considerably dirty after 2 days of chillin inside.
Yes.
I like the smell of my partner in the morning, but not after a hot sunny day. I think there are different levels of unwashed to consider.
Sounds like a musk fetish to me. No shame ofc. Get that stink
My poor fucking nostrils
You realise this idea exists independently of decent hygiene, right?
No I don't smelly boi (it's a joke don't be mad)
Seriously though natural BO? No way it smells bad because bacteria eat your oils and poop it out onto your skin.
Guess I am no match with anime fans and gamers
some people just have a smell that nobody would like so Imma judge that take complete horseshit
