I'd like to contest two questions (mainly cause I'm bored)

Sweat alone does not have an odor, but when combined with bacteria under your arm pits, an odor is created. A deoderant counteracts the odor by having a strong smell, while an anti-perspirant stops the sweat from being discharged from your armpit pores. Sweating is very important, as it not only keeps your body tempature from going very high, but also expels toxins inside your body. Anti-perspirant literally fills in the pores of your arm pit, blocking the perspirant from leaving your body. If you compare the textures of anti-perspirant and deodorant, you will see this. This can pose serious health risks if practiced regurally over long periods of time. Many deoderants also act as anti-perspirants to increase performance, and in turn marketing, so in order to avoid anti-perspirants you must analzye the label to be sure it is a true deoderant.
Therfore I would like to answer the question (OQ5, Old Question 5): A deoderant is a substance applied under the arms to mask the odor created by the mixing of human perspiration and bacteria, not to be confused with an anti-perspirant.
