also, i can move my lower eyelids inwards, so i look like a posessed zombie child. that creeps people out too!

i love these ‘powers’ XD

Your bodily “stink” smells much worse to people who share components of your immune system, an evolutionary trick to get folk to pick partners who don’t share any, and thus be more likely to have some of your kids survive the next plague. Your children should be less likely than average to die of the same immune-related cause as each other.
The stink in your clothes is mostly unrelated bacterial compounds (which don’t reproduce at all well on our skin, but thrive in various clothing materials), and smells much the same to everyone. Multiple sweating/drying/reheating sessions (such as before and after lunch, or on multiple days) amplifies the number of bacteria considerably.

People who smell worse than the clothes they’re in share a lot of the chromosomes that are active in your immune system. Either that or they have an infection, and should see a doctor.

Still, much of taste and smell is attitude. It’s quite possible to consciously ignore smells, and it’s normal for people to unconsciously do so in various “safe” smelly situations (like defecating or changing nappies). It’s similarly possible to elevate your awareness of these things, which you may have taken to doing by habit.

Hmm. Though I basically understand the value of the scientific method in testing theories of causation. Seriously people, do some experiments, be a little less credulous.

Some strawberries (1 out of 4 on average) taste like soap to me. Celery has a very strong taste to me, while my fiancee says its as tasteless as iceberg lettuce. I can also usually hear if electronics are on but idle, though I think that power is slowly leaving me as I get older. My body also generates lots of heat, so I can wear light clothes out when other people are bundled up.

My future mother-in-law has an impressive superpower. She’s not very big (5′0″) but can drink an entire bottle of tequila without getting drunk. Other alcohol effects her normally, but for some reason she’s completely immune to tequila. She learned this while doing shots with friends and relatives in a drinking contest–she drank them all under the table and felt absolutely fine at the end.

What makes you think that??
I know only a few Mongolians, not Tuvans, but usually they don’t discourage women to practise overtones…
…although I don’t know if it would be better to start as a /very/ young girl, like the 11year-old (!!) I saw in a documentary, demonstrating a mind blowing “kargyraa” (”undertone”-singing [see wikipedia for details]). If you never had an impression of some supernatural ability, this is a very convincing one…
