>The team found that the women's armpit sweat contained relatively high levels of an odourless sulphur-containing compound -- 5 milligrams per millilitre of sweat versus 0.5 milligrams in men. When the researchers mixed this compound in the lab with bacteria commonly found in the armpit, the bugs turned it into a thiol - a previously discovered odour from armpits that is akin to onion.
>The men, meanwhile, had relatively high levels of an odourless fatty acid which turned into a cheesy odour when exposed to the same types of bacteria.
>The balance of oniony to cheesy precursors in women's sweat made it smell worse than men's as rated by independent smell assessors.

Why aren't we actively trying to use other beneficial bacteria to crowd out populations of the ones with stinky byproducts? I was going to attempt to create a deodorant out of lactobacillus strains that would live well on skin, but I don't have the income or connections to make that go anywhere.

Huh. I'm a dude (I have a ding dong) and I used to have an onion odor when I would sweat. Not really an issue anymore since I switched to a salt crystal deodorant a long time ago.
