my take on the whole deodorant issue: i don't shave and only use deodorant
on days when i work 9 hour days at my job (a coffeehouse). i've found that
since i began using it less and less i smell less and less. maybe i'm
imagining it, but my partner says he's noticed it too...and plus, i hate
the way deodorant (the natural ones, anyway, i've never tried other
kinds) gets all cakey in my armpit hair...
