My wifes family lived in Monsey - site of the recent shooting. They lived in the section that split off from the Orthodox section. Yes, the orthodox tended to have body odor. Nothing worse than many on the subway. But I wouldnt want to sit next to them for even a short flight.
Reminds me of the time I got on an elevator and just happened to be down a few steps from a woman, wearing a particular cultural garb, and it was fairly obvious that she had never had a personal encounter with a shower or bath and her clothes had never seen a washing machine. I’m still scarred. And I have always wondered how that tribe manages to propagate so successfully.
This has nothing to do with religion. They stank! The airline was right.
in today’s world there’s always someone raising a stink about something...
Stink, stank, stunk !?! Are they stinking grifters? Hey, lets stench up the place then sue ? Award them a bar of soap.
They would have sued anyone who answered "yes."
Many years ago I was on a nearly full non-stop flight from L.A. to Sydney Australia.
I sat just behind a clearly retarded man in his mid twenties traveling with his parents.
The stink was unbearable. As we were located near the galley the stewardess put on a very strong pot of coffee in an attempt to mask the hideously repellent odor.
Today I laugh about it but man oh man it was bad.
Yeah yeah I know we can’t say “retarded” any more...but he was.
Let me see if I have this right. A Jewish family claims they were treated unfairly because of their faith. In Miami. Seriously?
Maybe the flight crew was Anti-Smellite.
I think my husband would have welcomed a little stink compared to what he was made to sit through on a flight.
A woman came on ......throwing up.....sat next to my husband and vomited continuously.......the whole flight!
When he got home he wanted to burn his clothes!
Armpit Aroma, the new cologne from Max Sphincter.
my sense of smell is always on high, unfortunately.
I just cover my mouth and nose if i am in public and am around stinky folks. I have no shame, and they have no soap.
and PS you can shower 2ce a day but if your clothes and undies are never washed, you still stink.
Oww, we want the funk, give up the funk
Oww, we need the funk, we gotta have that funk
Oww, we want the funk, give up the funk

You’ve got a real type of thing goin’ down
He might have showered, but were his clothes freshly-washed???
I ll tell ya, whats almost as bad as the funkateers. The folks, men and women, that douse themselves in 10 gallons of eau de stink cologne or perfume. Chemical warfare ! Some of these toxic clouds extend 10-15 feet , at least it provides some sort of warning. Choking noxious chemical vapor that leave you gasping for fresh air.
I have an olfactory ‘problem’.
My sense of smell is almost ‘not there’.
Question...
Because one CAN’T smell, does that mean they DON’T or WON’T smell???
Some people are unable to metabolize some cellular waste products and excretes them in sweat or the breath.
We also have differing abilities to smell and taste. Some people may be nose blind to a smell that someone else finds exquisitely disgusting! (I smell stinky stuff and have problems with perfume.)
THIS LINK lists diseases that result in body odor & it also lists genetic conditions that result in body odor. Some treatments are listed. (I would post it but have not quite figured out how to transfer to tables using HTML.)
