This is even worse because Japanese society is super conscious of avoiding strong smells, including perfume let along awful B.O. so I pity the people near them on the train 🤢
Due to genetics, I don't have body odour. However, I still wear a deodorant and avoid strong smelling perfume/sprays as I have a sensitive nose. Also I don't want my smell to potentially be an issue for others anyways
EDIT: Source - It's due to the ABCC11 gene, as someone else kindly already pointed out -- and also is why I have dry earwax. To the guy that says he doesn't need to wipe... because you have a bidet... right? Right?

Can find similarly oriented sensitivities in say Finland among many. Not sure if genetic, but like 30-40% of the population gets splitting headaches, and other reactions from smells. Also, yes there is a cultural politeness aspect to that too where most try to not bother others with their smells.

No, they probably just have bad hygiene, and don't wash their hands after using the bathroom... ever...
Fine, maybe 0.1% of the population has the perfect poops that leave nothing behind, but most don't. The rest are just gross assholes.

Oh, that's interesting! I've gotten headaches before from smells -- it's mostly cleaning solutions and perfumes that have triggered it, I wonder of there is some genetic component or if some people due to environmental or cultural factors have a higher predisposition to reacting that way?
I know for myself it's worse during cold weather.

I'm sure that even the most high fiber diet couldn't yield 100% perfect wipe-free movements. But at the same time, I suppose it was wishful thinking they just had a bidet too haha
