Brits admit avoiding intimacy because of body odour
A poll of 2,800 adults found 47 per cent often or sometimes feel embarrassed about the smell of their body parts. With 52 per cent of women more afraid of personally developing smells in areas other than their underarms, more so than men (43 per cent). Armpits (66 per cent), genitals (37 per cent) and feet (32 per cent) are the parts of the body they most commonly experience odour from. And more than one in 10 (11 per cent) give nicknames to their body parts in a bid to mask the embarrassment. (Image: Jack Hall/PinPep) Take the quiz here. The research was commissioned by Sure Whole Body Deodorant, which worked with TV personality and content creator Chris Taylor and Grime Gran aka Margie, who hit the streets to find out what the public call their regions of the body. Chris said: 'I've been in my fair share of sweaty situations – and it definitely helps to break the tension by using a nickname. 'Having chatted to Londoners, it's clear we all get embarrassed when we don't feel fresh.' Some of the sweeter nicknames people give their body parts include 'footsies' in the South for feet - (30 per cent) – compared to 'trotters' in the North (25 per cent). Across the UK, 40 per cent will call their stomach their 'tummy', while 14 per cent are happy to refer to it as their 'food baby'. But while 49 per cent use nicknames for a laugh, 30 per cent do so in a bid to feel more comfortable with their body. And 32 per cent rely on alternative names to make the conversation less awkward. Alice Duffill, for Sure Whole Body Deodorant, which uses odour adapt technology to help tackle various odour types found across the body, said: 'Our research shows Brits have a cheeky sense of humour when it comes to their own bodies. 'But these playful nicknames aren't just for fun as they also help people speak more confidently about their bodies. 'Our research found that nearly half of Brits admit to fearing B.O. as a result of sweating, so we're proud to launch a UK-first product to help Brits feel confident in their bodies.'

Chris Taylor uncovers quirky nicknames Brits give to their body parts
Chris Taylor and Grime Gran, aka Margie, have been out and about, speaking to Brits about their quirky body part nicknames in a bid to break down taboos TV personality Chris Taylor and content creator Grime Gran, aka Margie, have been out and about, speaking to Brits about their quirky body part nicknames. From "footsies" to "trotters" and everything in between, Chris chatted with people across London to find out the unusual—and often hilarious—terms they use when referring to certain parts of their anatomy. The playful chat formed part of a recent research commissioned by Sure Whole Body Deodorant which revealed four in ten Brits often feel embarrassed about the smell of their body parts, with areas other than their armpits likely to leave them feeling the most self-conscious. Among some of the nicknames uncovered in the research were light-hearted terms like "tummy" for a stomach (used by 40% of Brits) and "food baby" (14%). When it comes to feet, those in the South were likely to call them "footsies" (30%), while Northerners opt for "trotters" (25%). While 49% say these nicknames are just for a laugh, 30% use them to feel more comfortable with their bodies, and one in 10 give them nicknames in a bid to mask the embarrassment. 'I've been in my fair share of sweaty situations – and it definitely helps to break the tension by using a nickname," Chris said. 'Having chatted to Londoners, it's clear we all get embarrassed when we don't feel fresh.' Seven out of ten are concerned about body odour in areas other than their underarms, a worry dubbed 'FOBO' (Fear of Body Odour), and the research revealed that women were more likely to be concerned about this more than me. But overall, most people avoid standing close to others, hugging loved ones, or becoming intimate with a partner when they're worried about body odours. Alice Duffill, representing Sure Whole Body Deodorant, which utilises odour adapt technology to combat various types of body odours, stated: "Our research shows Brits have a cheeky sense of humour when it comes to their own bodies. "But these playful nicknames aren't just for fun as they also help people speak more confidently about their bodies. "Our research found that nearly half of Brits admit to fearing B.O. as a result of sweating, so we're proud to launch a UK-first product to help Brits feel confident in their bodies."
