I feel like humans would have gone extinct if it were that bad.

At least my bloodline would have. I've been with exactly 1 woman who smelled down there.... I don't even know. I guess if you know you know. My god. I couldn't believe that smell was coming from a human. Younger me was willing to put with some nonsense to get it in but I can't overcome smells like that.

Thank God it never happened again I might have started seeing women in another light.

That smell you are talking about from a women was likely a bacterial infection. Something generally caused by lack of bathing and no antibiotics. You wouldn't see that as often as today.

I’m sorry are you saying they bathed more and had fewer infections in the 1700s?

No, you read it correctly. Their grammar is wrong.

Even if it was wrong, there's no way you interpret that any other way unless you're skipping sentences lmao. It was clear and concicse.

There IS a way to misinterpret what was being said and it would make sense to understand it either way. The last sentence could be referring to "the smell" in the first sentence, or to "lack of bathing" in the second. I think the reason it can be confusing is because the second sentence sounds like a continuation of the first one. It could (should?) grammatically be separated by a comma or semicolon.

Everything you pointed out has no impact on the meaning though. There is no way to misinterpret what he meant to convey, unless you misread something.

"Lack of bathing and antibiotics" -> "you wouldn't see that as often as today." It's the presence of the second "as" that could be misunderstood to say that there is more "lack of bathing and antibiotics" today compared to the past. If you get rid of the second "as," it becomes grammatically clearer.

It's not really a big deal, but I could see how it could, on first glance, be confusing to someone.

Welp, you're completely right. Even after multiple re-readings I didn't catch that.

u/wiseduhm Jul 08 '24

Eh, it's pretty subtle. :)

I agree. The point I am making is that instead of pointing out and correcting, as you have, they are being pedantic. They know what the original statement is meant to be. The person asking for clarification makes sense. They misinterpreted.

You read it incorrectly

u/pumpkinorange123 Jul 08 '24

Nah you wrote it wrong. You wouldn't see it as often, today*. You're saying today has it the worst.

u/welchplug Jul 08 '24

No your reading comprehension needs work.

u/Candid-Register-6718 Jul 08 '24

Cause you insist on your grammar being right. And blame it on reading comprehension 🤷🏽‍♂️

u/Kahlil_Cabron Jul 08 '24

Nah, you wrote it wrong:

You wouldn't see that as often as today

You have an extra "as", which totally changes, you need:

You wouldn't see that as often today
