when they do studies like this, what units are they measuring odors with?
do smells have frequency and intensity units like light and sound do?

You could just ask participants to write down one word response on a paper to the smell.
Just cluster the word usage together on a chart
Then do similar thing with participant response to an image of various different people/culture. One word response.
Overlay the two clusters and draw conclusions.

that seems like a completely subjective process, do they just assume that everyone's nose has equal sensitivity and resolving power? do they even measure the dimensions of the participants' nostrils?

Matter of xenophobia/smell disgust is down to subjective feelings.
Then again, you could dive down deeper and try to look for a gene marker and find out its actually a genetic thing.
But if all you're looking for is correlations, then the first one works just fine. It satisfies your paper in a really simplistic heuristic without any tester bias

Random fun fact: If you're riding a bike and aren't sure if you're going with or against the wind, find the nearest melanin enriched person and ride past him. If you smell him before you pass him you're going into the wind, and if you smell him after then the wind's behind you.

fucking retard. what a way to miss the point. it's not because the immigrants are this or that.
Attraction and Aversion are basic pillars on which the brain operates. Those who have no problem with smells have a deficient brain therefore They FAIL to feel aversion to STRANGERS*/oddities; and They would have gone extinct in the Wild.
Normal people have more precaution.
*You should feel aversion to strangers regardless if they seem good or bad. City life kinda ruins your brain by making you more trustworthy.

Irrelevant. To compare different people's reactions to a smell, you need only ensure a consistent concentration of molecules, and then see how strongly each person reacts to a given odour.

How do you know
How do you differentiate people with more sensitive noses from people with less sensitive noses but more vulnerable to foul smells
How do you check if only one of those correlates with xenophobia

sure but those individual particles vary massively in the intensity of the effect they each produce as well as their detection rate, so a mere particle count isn't a useful measure, plus different types can react with each other or with other atmospheric components and some are short lived due to weak bonds. its a far more complex issue that your simpleminded model of it

It’s true.
Even the Japanese plug their noses when white tourists walk by
E. Asians lack apocrine sweat glands and do not produce BO. They don’t even have black or wet earwax!
Apparently white people are the third or fourth worst smelling people on the planet to them, after black people and an Indians.
Fun fact: Koreans rarely use deodorant, and only sell it to tourists and foreigners. Getting caught using deodorant is found to be an embarrassment.
White people smell like “sour milk”, or cheese, to Japanese folk. Acidic.
Despite all of this, E. Asia still practically worships white people/culture, like India.

The body odor gene Asians have is deleterious. It decreases your ability to keep yourself cool with sweat, resulting in faster overheating.

Apocrine sweat excretion is more efficient in cooling than eccrine sweat. The reason being that apocrine physically sheds a piece of the cell along with the liquid sweat, which bacteria breaking down the piece of cell is what causes the odor. Eccrine sweat is just sweat the salty liquid.

The frequency of the gene is inversly correlated with latitude, meaning that south east Asians have the lowest frequency of it in Asia (obviously their frequency is still higher than Europeans/Africans though).

Fewer apocrine sweat glands doesn't mean eccrine sweat glands aren't sufficient for most cooling needs. There are also other physiological and behavioural adaptations to overcome heat stress.

i hooked it up with this chinese engineering student and he complained that my pits, which i wash everyday without wearing deodorant, smelled like rust. it really confused me, absolutely no part of myself smelled of metal.
in being a (white) fag i am curious about this thread because the first time i understood something was awry with my sexuality (i found out about sex at 11 but didn't understand i was gay until i was 14) was when i first smelt my female cousins up close and personal just playing around. every touch by them (except my mother and sisters) made my skin itch and bothered me. i did MMA, so i had far more experience with how dudes smelled. when i compared girlsmell to guysmell, i thought that most men smelled pretty great in comparison. when i say what kind of smell, i mean how someone smells personally? just like how gut bacteria gives everyone a truly unique smell in ordinary conditions (as in it's not a sickly, entirely offputting smell that tells you bacteria are there that shouldn't be, such as when you go for too long without showering), the smell of skin and sweat are unique to every individual, the only other factor affecting that would be whatever they had consumed earlier.
on a final note, i can't stand how black people smell, enough to keep me far away from meeting em, but in meeting with mixed race individuals i wouldn't say the average asian, mexican or native american smells any different than a white person. arabs and italians for sure smell different while still being attractive while indians and africans just fucking stink to high hell naturally. it isn't overwhelming, but it is, very noticeable and i feel like a fucking bloodhound in how much it stands out. i really do think genes have a greater role in how the brain processes smell than we know.

it's all part of the estrogen/disgust/racist/amygdalic/f
people born into a lower mode of metabolic functioning use less energy so they make snap judgements (bc they're cheap), they freak out with insects in a way similar to fementative metabolism using random nondirectional energy
feminine women and masculine men are less prone to these things (progesterone is what makes women feminine)
estrogenic people regardless of gender are less fertile and less in line with natural gender roles (hence why they always project it as such a problem)
