What about one's feet haboring bacteria that produce toxic gases that stink?
What about the armpits and butt cracks that also produce malodorous gases displeasing to the sense of smell?
In times where soap was scarce, odors could be better tolerated. However, in modern times and more civilized societies, reliquishing bacteria with the aid of slippery surfactants is a luxury that raises the standard of urban living, by making us less intolerant of others.
Today, instead of tolerating stinky body parts, we now have sweet smelling perfumed soaped toes, armpits, and butt cracks.
