Olfactory fatigue works for all kinds of stenches, it doesn't mean they aren't unpleasant.

- coldtea 13y agoNot really. Some stenches bother you less due to it, but they still bother you. Also, who said people found the smell of a sweaty human unpleasant in first contant (before olfactory fatigue)? This pressuposes an essential "badness" of the smell, regardless of if someone perceives it as bad or not. Where would this "badness" essense lie?
