Humans Are Smelly | comment |
Humans are filthy creatures full of sweat and bodily secretions, this is true, and regular maintenance and cleanup in the form of bathing is required to avoid foul odours. But to those species that consider themselves higher than some lowly earthling, humans always smell bad. You'll often find other races like elves, The Fair Folk and especially aliens talking about the stink of human, especially amongst more arrogant species. To them, a stinky creature is an inferior one and you, you foul hairless ape, are on the lowest rung. Due to the nature of this trope requiring the response of a non-human party, this trope is normally reserved for fantasy or sci-fi genres and possibly verge on being an inverted Fantastic Racism. In many fantasy and mythology examples, this trope may be justified by the concept of ritual purity, which is a near physiological concern for supernatural beings in many worldviews that feature it, like toxicity for humans. Some myths feature supernaturals who describe ritual pollution as stinking; many ritual purifications involve physical bathing. Note that for this trope to apply, it applies to all humans and not just The Pig-Pen. In fact, when this trope is in play, it's not unusual for a subversion to be introduced by having non-human entities find the Pig-Pen's smell of decay to be more pleasant than the smell of an average human. This is especially common when dealing with creatures In Harmony with Nature, to whom our natural body odour may not be offensive, but the artificial and industrially-made chemicals we use to mask said odour absolutely are. Compare Call a Human a "Meatbag", another example of humans' biological processes being the basis of an insult, and Humans Are Ugly, which is based on humans' appearance rather than smell. In literal cases, may cross with Stink Snub. |

Dev Sibwarra, the Force-sensitive human that they Brainwashed to serve them, drinks and bathes in special deodorising solvents four times a day along with shaving off all of his hair so that the Ssi-ruuk can stand to be around him. | |

In Transformers: Infiltration, Sunstreaker complains about how disgusting humans are due to the amount of dead skin cells and sweat they constantly excrete. Many Cybertronians hold similar thoughts about organic life forms, but Sunstreaker stands out for actually being rude enough to actually say it to a human's face. | |

In the Justice League episode "The Brave and the Bold", part of Grodd's speech claims that "Humans are slow, ugly, immoral, and have an unpleasant body odor!" Everyone listening is human, but they're all Brainwashed and under his control; he's doing it to feed his ego. Naturally, the only part that The Flash himself takes offense to is being called "slow". | |

In the Humanx Commonwealth prequel novels, this trope complicates First Contact between humans and the Insectoid Alien Thranx: not only do humans have flesh-draped internal skeletons, they smell unpleasantly musky to Thranx noses. Conversely, almost every human thinks Thranx smell fresh and floral, despite being phobia-inducing Big Creepy-Crawlies. | |

Calvin and Hobbes: After Calvin turns himself into an owl with his transmogrification gun, Hobbes says he might be better off, and when Calvin asks why, Hobbes replies, "Well, I never knew quite how to say this, but little boys don't smell very good..." This may have less to do with Calvin's species than his aversion to bathing. Ironically, owls are noteworthy for being very insensitive to certain bad smells, especially that of the notorious skunk. And in another two strips, Hobbes tells him that he has unique words for different smells, such as "snippid" for burning leaves. When Calvin asks what the word for his smell is, Hobbes can't resist saying "terrible", causing Calvin to chase after him. |

One frequent running gag in The Order of the Stick is for the halfling Belkar (who is also a gourmet chef and thus has a honed sense of smell) to state that humans stink horribly to the point of causing him misery every day. In one particular case, the scent he smells that strip is unusual, but since he comments that this distress is a daily occurrence the example works. | |

In Codex Alera, the Canim Varg complains that the ship he's on smells of wet human. In a later book, another character is trying to teach a different Canim how to speak the human language, and has to explain the difference between "humans smell bad" and "humans have a weak sense of smell", and while doing so acknowledges that, from a Canim's perspective, both things might well be true. | |

Animorphs: In book #7, the Animorphs are wandering around in cockroach morphs as Ax says he smells humans. Someone objects that humans don't smell, but Ax insists they do — not that it's a bad smell, of course. However, he denies vehemently that Andalites have ever been known to stink. Inverted: While in dog morph, Jake and Marco run across an acquaintance named Erek and discover that he has no scent, which makes them suspect that he's not human. (This book is called The Android, so you can probably guess the truth.) #25: The Extreme inverts this. Cassie, in fly morph, says that Visser Three would stink to a human, but her fly brain thinks he smells pretty good. Upon meeting the Iskoort, one tries to swindle the Animorphs by yelling "You stink horribly! Let me cleanse you!" He doesn't make the sale. |

The Elder Scrolls: The Imga, a minor race of intelligent "ape men," consider the races of Men to be beneath them, copying their Altmeri (High Elf) idols, and pretend to find their smell offensive. They wear Pimped Out Capes at all times, with one perfumed corner which they hold over their noses when humans are around. In The Elder Scrolls Online, the Dremora Lycanth opines that all mortal races have an unpleasant smell of "warm blood and quiet desperation". |

Ferals in Sands of Destruction repeatedly claim that humans stink (and that half-humans like Naja stink just as bad). This is yet another reason humans are considered second-class citizens. | |

In Warrior Cats, the feline characters believe that humans smell, and even once the main character earns his place in the Clan (since he was born as a house cat), other cats still occasionally insult him by saying he smells like humans. | |

In Spirited Away, several bathhouse workers complain about Chihiro's "human smell." Haku defends that Chihiro only needs 3 days of eating spiritual food for the smell to go away. | |

Agent Smith from The Matrix is repulsed by the smell of humans. He admits this to Morpheus in The Matrix just before trying to physically torture him for Zion's access codes, and in The Matrix Revolutions, during his final encounter with Neo while downloaded into Bane: | |

The Witches: Human children, though not adults, smell just like dog droppings to witches (it's noted that, unlike many examples of this trope, dirt actually blocks the smell). They use this trait to help them track down children to destroy them. | |

An unusual human-about-human example in the Doctor Who New Adventures novel All-Consuming Fire when Bernice Summerfield says that "unwashed aliens just smell exotic", but being in a crowded 19th-century city surrounds you with a smell that is very specifically telling you, as a fellow human, that these people need a bath. | |
