I remembered another thing related to the smell of males. When I was pregnant, certain males smelled incredibly bad to me--they exuded a really strong, unpleasant odor. I was driven to avoid them. Sometimes when I would eat in the cafeteria at work, I had to get up and move to another table if one of these men sat at a table near me. Other men smelled just fine to me, similar to how they smelled before I was pregnant. I have no idea what this all means. I know when you are pregnant, your overall sense of smell increases, but this seems so specific. I was glad after I gave birth that these men stopped smelling horrible to me. Thank goodness, my husband was not one of the "horrible smelling" males. Maybe it is somehow related to the HLA?
