Now lets say that two guys smelled, one smelled because he didn't have the money to shower (homeless), and one smelled cause he had TMAU. Will the concept still hold true?
Examples are nice but there are exceptions to every rule. No matter how much people with odor try to show their personalities, people reject them by walking away. Our personalities only shine within our families, cause they give us a chance to shine!
One can only understand what it is like to be us only if they had our problem. I have on several occasions tried to talk and be funny, only to have people move away as I come closer.
