Is 'Sleep' like kidney stones, but in your tear ducts? A possible warning sign?

Does long hair exist in the armpits, and between the legs to reduce bacteria(and thus smell)? These areas your skin is touching, so like with meat more bacteria would grow in these areas. Putting something in between like hair could reduce the bacterial growth. Could having longer/more armpit hair reduce the bacterial life and smell along with it? Do people have shorter/less armpit hair until they get older because it causes a large smell to ward off danger, and so protect them until they are strong? The older you get, the stronger and more capable to defend yourself you are(up to a point), and the less time you have to reproduce so you must have every help to attract a mate(including reducing the odour), so the hair grows more dense/longer with age..? This is assuming that the smell produced by the bacteria living off the sweat is unattractive, and separate to the pheromones released in the sweat.
I just read that there are two types of sweat gland. The one which produces the odour is concentrated in the armpits and genital area, suggesting the smell is intentional. That's assuming this 'odour' is the one produced by the bacteria, and not the pheromones. This would suggest that the smell should not be negative in a healthy individual. However, many people would say they find the smell of raw-meat disgusting so... It's hard to tell. I can't really use myself as a subject for this anyway as I still have acne spots, a sign of poor health, along with other imperfections(e.g. dry lips, upset stomach[my understanding of what can cause both is improving, and thus the incidence is decreasing]) which occur which I am able to reduce more and more in time, with understanding of their cause. I also don't eat grass-finished meat, or wild meat at the moment. I am however increasing my sun/UVA&B exposure. Ancient humans would also not have worn clothes though, so...
"The amount of body odor you produce is based on the ability of your body to filter substances that it intakes. The stuff that it filters out and expels through sweat smells bad. The better your body is at filtering, the more bad stuff it expels, and the more your sweat smells. It has to do with genetics, there's nothing you can really do about how your body filters"
I even got this from somewhere, which would suggest some dietary cause I still have very wrong?
If I felt healthy in every other way, and eating(and living) pretty much 'to the letter natural' I would be confident that a smell produced by my body was a good one, and that if someone found it negative that it was simply due to acculturation and not actually bad. However I can't be. If I don't wash my armpits, they actually smell good to me, but they still smell, just it seems a good, musky smell. If I do wash my armpits(just luke-warm water) they briefly don't smell, but when they do start to smell it is a smell which does not smell good to me.
The thing that led me to be questioning this was after reading an article someone else posted in another topic which said how important sweating and hairlessness was to our survival. If this was so, then the odour may have been a compromise, and not a positive thing in itself.

Also... If anyone here has personal experience of overcoming acne spots through their natural diet/lifestyle I would be interested in their knowledge. Is it possible it could be as simple as eating only 100% grassfed meat?

Is most lamb in the UK 100% grass-fed, and most beef grassfed/grass-finished? For both, these would be unlabelled as such. Do a lot of Americans here eat grassfed/grainfinished meat? Is this what 'Whole Foods' sells?
